10th August 2025 John Howard Hiring Manager

CACI International Inc.

 

12021 Sunset Hills Rd, Reston, Virginia 20190

 

Re: Suitability for John Smith at CACI International Inc. Dear Mr. August,

I am writing to express my strong interest in the IT Operations Manager position at CACI Inc. With over 20 years of experience leading secure IT infrastructure, network operations, and cybersecurity initiatives in the U.S. Marine Corps, I bring a mission-first mindset and the technical depth to drive results in high-security, high-availability environments.

 

In my most recent role as an IT Operations Manager, I led a team of over 35 specialists in the deployment and maintenance of secure communications systems across joint and interagency missions. I successfully implemented a systems integration overhaul that reduced downtime by 60% and enhanced performance for multi-unit operations. With a CISM certification and active TS/SCI clearance, I bring not only technical expertise but a deep understanding of governance, compliance, and risk mitigation—key priorities in mission-critical environments like those CACI supports.

 

What excites me about CACI is your leadership in delivering innovative technology solutions to government and defense sectors. I am confident that my hands-on experience managing secure infrastructure and cross-functional teams, coupled with a strategic and disciplined approach honed through military leadership, will contribute to CACI’s continued success.

 

Enclosed for your consideration is my resume. I’d appreciate the opportunity to further discuss my suitability and qualifications with you on call or in person.

 

Sincerely, Cory Smith
