All-Source Analyst and Production - Senior

Cyber threats don't announce themselves — they have to be found, characterized, and understood before they can be countered. Peraton is looking for a Senior All-Source Analyst to do exactly that, supporting USCYBERCOM J2 intelligence production at Fort Meade, MD.

 

In this role, you'll fuse intelligence from across all disciplines — SIGINT, HUMINT, OSINT, GEOINT, and technical intrusion data — to produce finished intelligence products that reach General Officer and Flag Officer audiences. You'll track adversary TTPs, support offensive and defensive cyber operations planning, and serve as a senior subject matter expert on the threats facing the DoDIN and U.S. critical infrastructure. This is a high-visibility, high-impact role for analysts who are ready to operate at the top of their craft.

What You'll Do

• Conduct all-source analysis from multiple intelligence disciplines to assess, interpret, forecast, and explain national security issues and cyber threats
• Research, evaluate, and deconflict single-source classified reporting, technical intrusion data, finished intelligence, and open-source information
• Categorize and characterize cyber threats and malware to identify trends and changes in adversary tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs)
• Produce finished intelligence products adhering to ICD 203 analytic standards, requiring minimal corrections from DIA analytic reviewers
• Provide all-source JIPOE support to offensive and defensive cyber operations (OCO/DCO) planning and execution
• Develop and present intelligence briefings and slides to USCYBERCOM staff up to General Officer/Flag Officer (GO/FO) level
• Produce bulletins and briefs on TTP changes and technical trends in cyber threats directed at DoDIN and U.S. critical infrastructure
• Establish and maintain communications with IC counterparts, USCYBERCOM service components, DHS/NCSD, CERTs, and Information Assurance Centers
• Support cyber-related exercise scenario development, white cell participation, and role-playing activities
• Respond promptly to J2 and USCYBERCOM staff Requests for Information (RFIs)
• Author and maintain Operating Instructions (OIs) for Command-wide programs and initiatives

What You Bring

Required:

• Active Top Secret/SCI (TS/SCI) clearance with Polygraph
• Minimum of 12 years w/o a degree or 10 years with AS/AA or 8 years with BS/BA or 6 years with MS/MA or 3 years with Phd
• Working knowledge of all-source analytic concepts, IC/DoD classification guidelines, and structured analytic techniques
• Demonstrated ability to produce timely, logical, and concise analytic reports, assessments, and briefing materials in Microsoft Office formats
• Proficiency evaluating and synthesizing multiple sources of information, recognizing nuances and resolving contradictions
• Strong verbal and written communication skills with demonstrated grammar proficiency
• Understanding of intelligence collection capabilities and limitations across technical sensors and HUMINT sources
• Availability for on-call surge support with less than 24-hour notice during contingency operations

Preferred:
