Role Overview

The Threat Intelligence Analyst will play a critical role within Axon's Global Security Operations Center (GSOC) by actively monitoring the global threat landscape, conducting in-depth threat analysis, and enabling early detection of risks that could impact Axon's rapidly scaling global footprint—including people, facilities, travelers, and operations. This role is central to the GSOC's mission of protecting life, mitigating loss, and moving from a reactive posture to a more proactive, intelligence-led approach—anticipating, assessing, and actioning threats before they materialize. The analyst will bridge threat intelligence across physical security, information security, and cybersecurity domains to ensure unified situational awareness and risk mitigation.

• Serve as a liaison between GSOC and InfoSec/Cybersecurity teams, ensuring cross-domain threat intelligence convergence.
• Develop and maintain early warning indicators, risk models, and intelligence watchlists for high-priority regions and assets.
• Support incident monitoring, threat validation, and escalation during crisis events impacting global facilities or personnel.
• Contribute to development of GSOC threat intelligence SOPs and playbooks, integrating tools and platforms like Fusus, ZeroFox, Citizen, and others.

• Represent Axon in external threat intelligence exchanges and corporate security working groups.
