MEANINGFUL WORK AND PERSONAL IMPACT

As aSenior PrincipalSIGINT Analyst,you will turn complex SIGINT and multi-source data into clear, actionable intelligence that directly supports analytic requirements. You will apply established SIGINT tradecraft while helping develop and refinenew approachesfor working with increasingly large, diverse, and technically complex datasets.Your analyticexpertisewill help ensure thatnew technologiesproduce technicallyaccurate, explainable, and relevant results.

JOB DUTIES(INCLUDE BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO)

• Conduct structured SIGINT analysis across multiple data sources toidentifypatterns, relationships, behaviors, anomalies, and other indicators relevant toestablishedintelligence requirements.

• Use SIGINT databases, repositories, analytic platforms, and specialized tools to interpret collected data, develop analytic leads, and synthesize information into actionable intelligence.

• Develop intelligence reports, analytic assessments, briefings, structured data products, and other analyst-ready deliverables that clearly communicate findings, confidence, limitations, and operational relevance.

• Apply applicable SIGINT authorities, policies, legal considerations, and handling requirements throughout collection, analysis, exploitation, reporting, and dissemination activities.

• Collaborate with data scientists, software engineers, and other technical personnel to translate analyst requirements and SIGINT tradecraft into improved analytic tools, workflows, and capabilities.

• Help transition successful analyst workflows and ad hoc analytic methods into repeatable methodologies, documented processes, automated workflows, and reusable operational capabilities.

• Communicate technical SIGINT concepts, analytic findings, data characteristics, and requirements effectively to both SIGINT and non-SIGINT personnel.

REQUIRED SKILLS:

• Experience using SIGINT repositories, databases, analytic platforms, and specialized tools to research and analyze collected information, develop intelligence assessments, and answer intelligence requirements.

• Strong understanding ofSIGINTcollection, analysis, exploitation, and associated tradecraft, methodologies, authorities, legal considerations, and operational constraints.

• Experience working directly with processedand unprocessedtechnical data and the ability to understand how collection methods, processing, transformations, data quality, and source limitations affect downstream analysis.

• Experience correlating information across multiple intelligence sourcesand disciplinestoidentifyrelationships and develop higher-confidence analytic conclusions.

• Experience producing clear,accurate, andtimelyintelligence reports, analytic assessments, briefings, or other intelligence products for decision-making audiences.

• Ability to evaluate analytic findings critically, distinguish between confirmed information and analytic assessment,identifypotential gaps or alternative explanations, and clearly communicate levels of confidence and known limitations.

• Ability to communicate SIGINT tradecraft, technical requirements, data characteristics, and analyst workflows to personnel who may not have a SIGINT background.

• Demonstrated willingness and ability to learn emerging technologies, adapt established analytic methodologies, and incorporate new tools and techniques intorepeatableworkflows.

DESIRED SKILLS

• Experience applying data-driven analytic techniques to SIGINT datasets, including pattern analysis, anomaly detection, relationship discovery, network analysis, entity correlation, prioritization, or temporal analysis.

• Experience working with large, disparate, or technically complex datasets and using modern data platforms, search systems, or other technologies to perform intelligence analysis.

• Familiarity with scripting, query languages, or data analysis tools such as Python, SQL, notebooks, or similar technologies used to investigate, manipulate, enrich, and analyze technical data.

• Experience collaborating with software developers or data scientists to define analyst requirements, test new analytic capabilities,validateresults, provide subject matterexpertise, and refine tools based on feedback.

• Familiarity with automated data processing and enrichment techniques, including parsing, data correlation, and integration of structured and unstructured information.

• Experience developing or refining repeatable analytic methodologies that transition manual or ad hoc analyst processes into standardized, documented, or automated workflows.

• Experienceoperatingin multidisciplinary environments where intelligence tradecraft must be combined with data science, software engineering,and/oradvanced analytics.
