Space All-Source Intelligence Analyst

Description Are you passionate about using intelligence analysis to solve complex challenges in the space domain? Do you enjoy turning intelligence from multiple sources into actionable data that can inform modeling, simulation, and analysis? Are you interested in working alongside engineers, modelers, and analysts to help assess and forecast national security space threats? As a Space All-Source Intelligence Analyst, you will… Acquire, analyze, and synthesize intelligence from multiple sources and classified disciplines to develop a comprehensive understanding of space threats and operational environments. Translate qualitative intelligence assessments into quantitative data, variables, and parameters that can be incorporated into modeling, simulation, and analysis tools. Collaborate with systems engineers and modelers to integrate intelligence into high-fidelity models used to assess and forecast national security space threats. Apply intelligence insights to develop realistic operational and training scenarios for complex simulations. Support model verification and validation by comparing simulation results with available real-world intelligence and identifying discrepancies that may affect model accuracy or fidelity. Develop and maintain detailed threat and operational environment profiles to ensure models and simulations reflect the most current intelligence available. Work closely with MS&A engineers, data scientists, analysts, and program managers to define intelligence requirements and effectively integrate intelligence throughout the modeling and analysis lifecycle. Communicate intelligence findings and technical insights to multidisciplinary teams to support analyses, assessments, and sponsor needs.
