Job description

GEOINT analysts rely on instructors who can bridge the gap between technical tools and mission application. Every great analyst starts with someone who challenges them to think differently. This role isn’t about teaching ArcGIS Pro or explaining geospatial workflows. It’s about preparing intelligence professionals to solve real-world problems, make mission‑critical decisions, and support national security from day one.

This is an exciting opportunity to join us as a Geospatial Analysis Instructor to support the National Geospatial‑Intelligence Agency (NGA). This is a perfect opportunity for someone who enjoys sharing knowledge as much as applying it. Someone who understands that the best instructors don’t simply present material, they connect concepts to mission, encourage critical thinking, and help students build confidence they can carry into the operational environment. As part of the NGA College’s GEOINT Tradecraft Learning program, you’ll help develop the next generation of GEOINT analysts by delivering engaging, instructor‑led training while ensuring course materials stay relevant to today’s evolving mission. Whether you’re leading a classroom, facilitating virtual instruction, or helping improve curriculum behind the scenes, your expertise will directly influence the future GEOINT workforce. If you have deep GEOINT experience, enjoy teaching others, and want your expertise to have lasting operational impact, this role gives you the opportunity to shape the future of the enterprise!

Requirements

• Current active Top Secret / SCI clearance.
• You have gained 5+ years of professional experience in Geospatial Analysis, GIS, or related GEOINT tradecraft demonstrating applied mission expertise.
• Practical experience using ArcGIS Pro for spatial analysis, data creation, data integration, visualization, and applied GIS workflows since this is a core too used by GEOINT analysts across the enterprise.
• Familiarity with GEOINT mission systems such as RemoteView, Orchestration Services, iSpy, Map of the World, and related NGA / NSG platforms to train students on the tools they will be use in operational assignments.
• Ability to support curriculum maintenance by identifying updates, correcting course materials issues, and ensuring content remains current, accurate, and aligned to NGA mission needs.
• Ability to travel up to 30% to support delivery of training across multiple locations.
