Job description

Do work that matters.

At AlertMedia, we're the leading Risk Intelligence and Response company helping organizations protect their people and businesses. Our mission is simple but critical: to save lives and minimize loss by identifying emerging threats worldwide and enabling timely communication when emergencies impact personal safety or business continuity.

Everything we do is guided by our core values:

• We're humans not robots
• Customers always come first
• We work better together
• Simplicity is our strength
• Our reputation is priceless
• Hard work pays off

AlertMedia is seeking a Strategic Intelligence Analyst ( Shift: Tues-Sat, 9am-5pm CT) to join our Global Intelligence team. This role will focus primarily on the Americas region, including the United States, Canada, Mexico, Central America, South America, and the Caribbean. This role will play a critical part in helping customers understand and prepare for events and emerging risks that may impact their people, operations, and business continuity. As a Strategic Intelligence Analyst, you will leverage open-source intelligence, analytical tradecraft, and a variety of intelligence sources to identify, assess, and communicate risks associated with future events, geopolitical developments, evolving global trends, and activist movements.

A primary focus of this role will be monitoring and assessing planned and emerging events across the Americas, including demonstrations, protests, labor actions, counter-protests, political rallies, major public gatherings, and other activity that may create operational, travel, safety, or reputational impacts for organizations. Additionally, you will serve as a regional intelligence resource for the Americas, monitoring the region for significant developments; elections and transition periods; political activity; organized crime and cartel-related security trends; border, migration, and transport issues; and emerging trends that may affect customers and their employees.

In addition to producing timely intelligence alerts and assessments, you will contribute to recurring intelligence products and reporting, helping customers understand what is happening, why it matters, and what impacts may follow.

As one of the fastest growing software companies in the nation, we're focused on finding the best talent and building the best team to continue accelerating our rapid growth to keep up with our demand!

Who You Are:

You have previous experience as a Strategic Intelligence Analyst, Intelligence Analyst, Security Analyst, Geopolitical Risk Analyst, or in another role that required you to be mission-focused, analytical, highly organized, and able to work effectively within time constraints. You are skilled at collecting, evaluating, and analyzing information from a variety of sources and transforming complex developments into clear, actionable intelligence.

You're inspired to make a difference and understand the importance and responsibility of supporting customers through critical events and evolving risk landscapes. You have sound judgment, intellectual curiosity, and the ability to make thoughtful decisions when information is incomplete, conflicting, or rapidly evolving.

You are an independent problem solver who communicates clearly, writes effectively, and collaborates well with others. You thrive in a fast-paced environment, welcome feedback, and are motivated by opportunities to strengthen intelligence capabilities and customer outcomes.

You are comfortable owning a regional portfolio with limited day-to-day direction, proactively identifying collection priorities, escalating significant developments, and making sound analytic judgments in ambiguous or fast-moving situations.

What You'll Get to Do Every Day:

Utilize open-source intelligence and a variety of collection tools to identify, assess, and monitor planned events and emerging risks across the Americas region. Support efforts across other regions as needed.

Monitor and assess planned demonstrations, protests, labor strikes, and other activism-related activity and upcoming events to identify potential impacts to business operations, employee safety, travel, and business continuity.

Serve as the primary intelligence resource for an Americas-focused area of responsibility, maintaining awareness of elections, political developments, civil unrest, labor activity, security incidents, and emerging regional trends.

Research, analyze, and assess complex events and developments, transforming information from multiple sources into timely intelligence alerts, assessments, and other intelligence products that provide relevant context, potential impacts, and actionable insights.

Contribute to recurring intelligence reporting, including weekly intelligence briefs, situation reports, and other strategic intelligence deliverables.

Evaluate information from a variety of sources, validate reporting, and ensure intelligence products meet the highest standards of accuracy, r
