Amentum is seeking a highly motivated, self-starting Open-Source Intelligence (OSINT) Analyst. Applicants selected will be subject to a government security investigation and must meet eligibility requirements for access to classified information, including the ability to obtain and maintain a Top Secret-SCI clearance. This role involves providing mid-level analytic expertise to the DCSA OSINT Analysis, reviewing submitted packages to ensure they meet basic submission requirements, and providing direction and support to customers who must remedy package errors or have status questions. Analysts will produce RIRs through conducting all-source research from information available from public, private, and U.S. and foreign Government open-source materials and evaluating those facts against established DCSA risk indicators. The position assesses foreign and domestic-based publicly available information to identify trends, patterns, and relationships that provide unique insights to address defense intelligence requirements. The role is part of Entity Vetting (EV), which consists of three mission areas: Verification and Triage Unit (VTU), Due Diligence Unit (DDU), and Risk Management Unit (RMU). EV is responsible for producing timely, relevant, and actionable triage, business and security-centric due diligence research, reporting, analysis, and risk management products, recommendations, and decisions to evaluate risk and FOCI, negotiate and sustain risk management strategies and FOCI action plans, and provide end-to-end management support. CI performs an essential function through its Threat Integration Branch (TIB), providing timely, relevant, and actionable threat reports. The analyst will conduct analytical research that establishes threat to U.S. technologies, information, and supply chains impacting cleared industry, cleared personnel, DOD, and DCSA. Responsibilities include processing, updating, and tracking cases, actions, products, and reviews in identified systems of record and other databases. The analyst will research, synthesize, exploit, evaluate, and analyze all-source reporting on USG critical technologies, programs, information, and supply chains, utilizing commercial subscription tools (e.g., Bloomberg), open-source research, Government databases, and intelligence reporting to produce Threat Information Reports (TIRs). The role requires developing analytical products that effectively articulate threats, demonstrating analytic integrity, rigor, and tradecraft standards by adhering to applicable IC Directives and DoD Instructions, and disseminating intelligence information to customers and stakeholders.
