GEOINT Source Throughput Analyst

Geo Owl • Springfield, VA

2d • Hybrid

About The Position

New capabilities are only valuable if they actually make it into operations. As a GEOINT Source Throughput Analyst, you are the bridge between emerging collection architecture and operational reality — synchronizing mission requirements, building relationships across NGA, the IC, and key source stakeholders, and leading the integration work that ensures new and modified capabilities land in operations without gaps, conflicts, or redundancies.

The GEOINT Source Throughput Analyst applies deep TCPED experience to synchronize mission requirements, prevent redundancies, and lead integration activities as new or modified collection capabilities transition into operations. You develop and sustain mission relationships across NGA, the IC, DoD, and key NRO stakeholders to support future architecture, while also managing large multi-source datasets, developing automated collection strategies, and working alongside data scientists to apply inferencing approaches. This role requires sustained multi-tasking across a complex multi-location program management environment and the ability to ensure new capabilities are properly fielded and operationally effective.

The Enhancement Specialist synchronizes mission requirements to prevent redundancies, identify conflicts, and review priorities for tasking of traditional and non-traditional GEOINT sources. Ensures new or modified capabilities from National assets are transitioned into operations properly and leads teams executing integration activities. Develops and sustains mission relationships across NGA, the IC, and DoD and builds relationships with key NRO stakeholders to support future architecture.

Requirements

• TS/SCI clearance with polygraph
• Minimum 10 experience points required (see experience point calculation below)
• HS diploma or GED
• 5+ years of experience with TCPED of GEOINT data, including support to real-time and activity-based collection
• 5+ 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 develop and sustain mission relationships across NGA, the IC, and DoD; ability to build relationships with key NRO stakeholders to support future architecture
• Ability to synchronize mission requirements to prevent redundancies, identify conflicts, and review priorities for tasking of traditional and non-traditional GEOINT sources
• Ability to ensure new or modified capabilities from National assets are transitioned into operations properly and to lead teams executing integration activities
• Experience multi-tasking across day-to-day operations in a program management environment spanning multiple geographically separated client locations
• You think in integration — you see how a new capability lands in operations, what it conflicts with, and what has to change before it can be effective
• You build relationships that outlast a program — your network across NGA, the IC, and source stakeholders is a genuine professional asset, not a contact list
• You synchronize without bureaucratizing — you prevent conflicts and redundancies by surfacing them early and resolving them through relationships and judgment, not process overhead
• You bridge technical and operational worlds — you can work alongside data scientists on inferencing models and translate the results into collection and tasking decisions
• You lead under operational pressure — you coordinate distributed teams across multiple locations and keep integration work moving even when the requirements change mid-stream

Nice To Haves

• Experience turning intelligence capabilities and workflows into learning objectives for training audiences
• Experience providing feedback to assist with development of training materials
• GEOINT Professional Certification – Fundamentals (GPC-F)
• Experience with GEOINT collection management systems reflecting knowledge of the GEOINT Community, its focus areas, and its collection management structures
• Experience with research, evaluation, and documentation of unique and non-traditional National Technical Means (NTM) sensor capabilities
• Operational experience with vector data

Responsibilities

• Synchronize mission requirements across stakeholders — identifying redundancies, surfacing conflicts, and reviewing priorities for tasking of traditional and non-traditional GEOINT sources

• Develop and sustain mission relationships across NGA, the IC, and DoD; build and maintain relationships with key NRO stakeholders to inform and support future collection architecture
• Manage large multi-source datasets: sense-make across feeds, assess model output confidence and reliability metrics, and apply findings to collection and integration decisions
• Develop automated collection strategies and collaborate with data scientists applying inferencing methodologies that derive insights from temporal and spatial datasets
• Multi-task across simultaneous operational demands in a program management and professional environment supporting several geographically separated client locations
• Synchronize mission requirements to prevent redundancies, identify conflicts, and review priorities for tasking of traditional and non-traditional GEOINT sources
• Ensure new or modified capabilities from National assets are transitioned into operations properly; lead teams executing integration activities
