• This position may require up to six months of deployment annually*

Responsibilities:

• Develop, process, and evaluate TECHINT and Weapon Intelligence data to identify, characterize, and assess weapons, IEDs, associated devices, technologies, and technical signatures.
• Conduct all-source intelligence exploitation of weapons, IEDs, and related devices to identify technical characteristics, components, capabilities, functionality, and attribution indicators.
• Produce Weapon Intelligence and device attribution reports, intelligence products, databases, and technical assessments documenting device characteristics, technical profiles, signatures, and associated events.
• Analyze weapons, IEDs, and related device events to identify recurring technical profiles, signatures, components, construction methods, triggering mechanisms, and other indicators supporting attribution and threat assessments.
• Analyze technical data associated with device and weapon signatures, including seismic, acoustic, infrasound, very low frequency (VLF), extremely low frequency (ELF) electromagnetic, and triggering-device data.
• Integrate TECHINT, Weapon Intelligence, and all-source reporting to correlate device characteristics, technical signatures, and event information and develop comprehensive intelligence assessments.
• Maintain and update Weapon Intelligence and device attribution databases to support exploitation, correlation, trend analysis, and retrieval of technical intelligence.
• Collaborate with Intelligence Community, scientific, technical, and academic partners to evaluate emerging weapons, IED, sensing, triggering, and related technologies and assess their implications for TECHINT/Weapon Intelligence capabilities.
• Conduct research and analysis on emerging and evolving technologies to identify changes in weapon and device capabilities, signatures, employment methods, and associated intelligence requirements.
• Develop and communicate technical intelligence assessments, findings, and recommendations to support operational, intelligence, scientific, and technology-development requirements.
