Role Overview

• Collect, validate, analyze, and integrate information from multiple sources, including raw and incomplete data, to produce high-quality finished intelligence and analytical deliverables that enable private and public sector clients to make informed operational and strategic decisions.
• Perform detailed multi-source imagery data exploitation, geospatial integration and contextualization writing in support of Project Leads, following established Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and written Tactics, Techniques and Procedures (TTPs).
• Lead projects and develop collection and analysis strategies using all-source methodologies, with a focus on leveraging local indigenous sources, locally sourced imagery, secondary research, social media analysis, publicly available geospatial data, and commercial satellite imagery to answer client requirements.
• Develop, refine, and continuously improve research and analytical methodologies; evaluate emerging sources, tools, and collection approaches; and recommend new methods to enhance project quality, efficiency, and insight generation.
• Fuse and integrate disparate streams of information to produce finished written analytical products that clearly define the problem, outline methodology, assess key findings, identify gaps and assumptions, and provide well-reasoned judgments and recommendations.

• Perform gap analysis on field and final analytical products to ensure deliverables address all collection objectives, satisfy client requirements, and meet quality standards; clearly articulate intelligence gaps, collection shortfalls, and recommendations for follow-on action.
• Geospatial analysis. Ability to interpret maps and overhead/satellite imagery and compare with ground-acquired event data (to include hand-held imagery, social media imagery, news coverage) to deduce geolocation and exploit information.
• Provide substantive research expertise and analytical support for directed efforts, including rapid-turn and high-priority Requests for Information (RFIs), while managing competing deadlines and evolving client requirements.
• Support data management, knowledge management, and filing protocols to ensure analytical integrity and efficient retrieval of project materials.
• Coordinate across project teams to support planning, workflow management, and internal communication on project status, deliverables, and deadlines.
