Additional Information

About Cape Cape is America's privacy-first mobile carrier. Our mission is to be a force for good in global wireless. Cape was founded in 2022 by people who believe privacy is a fundamental right, not a luxury to be traded away. Our journey began when our founder recognized a critical vulnerability in our modern world: everyone relies on the same stagnant cellular infrastructure and legacy systems that track our every movement, monitor and profile our connections, and lose and sell our personal data. Instead of accepting the status quo, we decided to fix it. National security professionals, journalists, parents, and everyone in between can stay connected and have privacy. We didn't just build a layer on top of old tech; we built America's most private and secure mobile carrier from the ground up. By building our own network from scratch, we are able to design and build a suite of privacy and security features that no other carrier on the planet can offer. Today, Cape provides our secure network to consumers, businesses, and government agencies alike. We closed our Series C in March 2026, and we are scaling rapidly, with the goal of giving people back control of their most personal information. The Team At Cape, we are the architects of a privacy-centric movement that is just getting started. We are relentless builders, constantly innovating at the edge of what's possible in telecommunications. We operate on a foundation of high trust and high expectations. As a member of our team, you will collaborate with world-class engineers, architects, and visionaries, and work across organizational lines to solve "impossible" problems and deliver mission-critical results for our users every single day. Job Description Cape is seeking an experienced Facility Security Officer (FSO) to lead Cape's comprehensive security program across multiple facilities and programs.

You will help our team support some of the country's most sensitive customers and scale from borrowed space to a third party SCIF and beyond. Your expertise in security administration and operations will be a key component of Cape's continued growth. In addition to core FSO duties, this role is also responsible for supporting government contract billing including data entry in the DoD Wide Area Workflow (WAWF) system and tracking contract invoice and payment status. The right candidate will have at least three years of direct FSO experience, a working knowledge of NISPOM, and proficiency in the personnel security clearance lifecycle.
