About The Position

The GEOINT Source Strategies Analyst applies deep expertise across the full tasking, collection, processing, exploitation, and dissemination (TCPED) pipeline to develop comprehensive multi-intelligence collection strategies for complex and unusual intelligence problems. At the Expert level, you are an authority on both traditional and emerging overhead sensors, automated collection approaches, and the inferencing methodologies that extract meaning from temporal and spatial data. You work across NSG and IC collection management structures, collaborate with data scientists and source providers, and guide customers through the intelligence needs development process from research phase through tasking.

The Discover and Collection Specialist collaborates with customers and source providers to develop comprehensive multi-intelligence, multi-source strategies to address complex or unusual intelligence problems. Position supports real-time and activity-based collection, automated collection strategies, and sensemaking of large multi-source datasets in support of GEOINT collection management.

Requirements

• TS/SCI clearance with polygraph
• Minimum 18 experience points required (see experience point calculation below)
• HS diploma or GED
• 10+ years of experience with TCPED of GEOINT data, including support to real-time and activity-based collection
• 7+ years of experience managing large multi-source data, sensemaking, assessing metrics associated with model output confidence/reliability, developing automated collection strategies, and working with data scientists
• Knowledge of traditional and developing overhead sensors and capabilities; exposure to automated collection strategies and inferencing methodologies deriving insights from temporal and spatial datasets
• Experience with NSG focus areas and collection management structures, including NSG/IC collaborative tools for GEOINT collection, production, and visualization
• Ability to collaborate with customers and source providers to develop comprehensive multi-intelligence, multi-source strategies for complex or unusual intelligence problems
• Ability to support research phase of Information Need development and understand impacts of phenomenology on tasking of traditional and non-traditional GEOINT
• Experience with GEOINT collection management systems reflecting knowledge of the GEOINT Community, its focus areas, and its collection management structures
• Experience multi-tasking across day-to-day operations in a program management and professional environment spanning multiple geographically separated locations

Nice To Haves

• Experience providing feedback to assist with development of training materials
• Experience with research, evaluation, and documentation of unique and non-traditional National Technical Means (NTM) sensor capabilities
• Experience turning intelligence capabilities and workflows into learning objectives for training audiences
• Operational experience with vector data

Responsibilities

• Develop and refine multi-source, multi-intelligence collection strategies to address complex or time-sensitive intelligence problems — balancing sensor availability, phenomenology constraints, and collection priorities
• Support the research phase of Information Need development; advise customers and collection managers on how phenomenology impacts tasking decisions across traditional and non-traditional GEOINT sensors
• Manage large multi-source datasets: sense-make across feeds, assess model output confidence and reliability metrics, and translate findings into actionable collection recommendations
• Develop automated collection strategies and work alongside data scientists to apply inferencing methodologies that extract insights from temporal and spatial datasets
• Navigate NSG and IC collection management structures and collaborative tools to coordinate GEOINT collection, production, and visualization across geographically dispersed teams
• Multi-task across simultaneous day-to-day operational demands in a program management environment supporting several geographically separated locations
• Collaborate with customers and source providers to develop comprehensive multi-intelligence, multi-source strategies that address complex and unusual intelligence problems
• Apply full TCPED lifecycle expertise — from information need development and tasking through collection, processing, exploitation, and dissemination — including real-time and activity-based collection
• Manage and sense-make large multi-source datasets; assess metrics associated with model output confidence and reliability to inform collection decisions
• Develop automated collection strategies; apply inferencing methodologies that derive insights from temporal and spatial datasets in collaboration with data scientists
• Support the research phase of Information Need development; advise on the impacts of phenomenology on tasking decisions for traditional and non-traditional GEOINT sources
• Navigate NSG focus areas and collection management structures; leverage IC collaborative tools for GEOINT collection, production, and visualization
• Leverage GEOINT collection management systems to coordinate collection activity across the community, reflecting knowledge of GEOINT focus areas and community structure
