• 5+ years of experience conducting intelligence analysis, network analysis, counter‑network analysis, targeting support, threat analysis, or operational intelligence support in a DoD, Intelligence Community, federal law enforcement, or national security environment.
• Experience analyzing adversary networks, operational support structures, logistics pathways, procurement activities, facilitators, infrastructure, or threat ecosystems.
• Experience integrating information from multiple intelligence disciplines, operational reporting, technical findings, collection reporting, and partner information.
• Experience developing intelligence products, network assessments, briefings, operational updates, or targeting support materials.
• Active Top Secret clearance with the ability to obtain TS/SCI.
• Successful passage of background and drug screening.

Preferred Qualifications

• Active TS/SCI.
• Experience supporting counter‑UAS, counter‑UXS, counter‑network, counter‑terrorism, counter‑proliferation, counternarcotics, threat finance, or transnational threat missions.
