Digital Network Exploitation Analyst

About the role

As a Digital Network Exploitation Analyst, you will evaluate target opportunities using all-source data to understand and map target networks, and assist in developing detailed exploitation and operations plans. You will analyze SIGINT and cybersecurity data at multiple levels of the OSI network stack, bringing a solid understanding of logical/physical IP core infrastructure, communication devices, and network traffic movements.

You will be involved in developing new tradecraft as technologies evolve and collaborate with government, military, and contractor personnel to align intelligence needs, mission relevance, and expertise. Your role will involve forming hypotheses, selecting analysis techniques, querying and enriching data, and sharing insights with teammates and stakeholders.

You will distill, document, contextualize, and share findings—including any new tradecraft—with your team and intelligence consumers.
