Vantor•Tampa, FL

About The Position

Vantor is forging the new frontier of spatial intelligence, helping decision makers and operators navigate what’s happening now and shape what’s coming next. Vantor is a place for problem solvers, changemakers, and go-getters—where people are working together to help our customers see the world differently, and in doing so, be seen differently. Come be part of a mission, not just a job, where you can: Shape your own future, build the next big thing, and change the world. To be eligible for this position, you must be a U.S. Citizen. This position requires an active U.S. Government security clearance, applicants who do not currently hold the required clearance will not be eligible for consideration. Employment for cleared roles is contingent upon verification of clearance status.

This position requires an active U.S. Government Security Clearance at the TS/SCI level. This opportunity supports USSOCOM J39 in advancing its Operations in the Information Environment (OIE) capabilities through integrated analytics, knowledge management, and strategic planning. The effort is focused on solving a critical operational gap: the absence of a centralized capability to effectively manage global information operations data, partner nation SOF knowledge, and trans-regional planning across multiple classification domains. As an expansion of support to an established USSOCOM customer, this work enables improved synchronization of information operations, enhanced decision-making, and greater alignment across Combatant Commands, interagency partners, and allied networks. The program will deliver mission-critical insights and coordination mechanisms to strengthen influence operations and operational effectiveness in complex, globally distributed environments.
