S. Army Special Operations Command (USASOC) and supported partner units operating within the Tactical Mission Network (TMN) environment. The OSINT Analyst is a primary contributor to the cell's analytical output, responsible for the systematic collection, exploitation, and analysis of open source data to produce finished products that inform Special Operations planning, targeting, network analysis, and decision-making.

This position requires a technically proficient and analytically disciplined OSINT practitioner who can navigate the full spectrum of open source environments — from surface web research and social media exploitation to dark web monitoring, commercial satellite imagery, and publicly available data aggregation — and translate those findings into actionable intelligence for a demanding SOF customer. The ideal candidate brings a combination of rigorous analytical processes, strong digital collection skills, and an operational mindset shaped by prior military or Special Operations support experience. EUCOM/SOCEUR priorities, and the unique political-military dynamics of Eastern Europe (EE) is a distinct advantage.

This position requires an active DoD Top Secret which requires US citizenship for work on DoD contracts.

Responsibilities

: Open-Source Collection Exploitation Conduct systematic, methodical collection of open source intelligence across surface web, deep web, social media platforms, commercial data providers, foreign language sources, and publicly available government and commercial databases. Exploit publicly available information (PAI) to develop comprehensive profiles of individuals, organizations, facilities, networks, and geographic areas of interest relevant to USASOC mission sets.

Requirements

and areas of interest. Identify, evaluate, and curate high-value open source data streams and providers, assessing their reliability, coverage, and operational utility for the DEC and the program's data strategy. Apply advanced search techniques, Boolean operators, and specialized OSINT tools and frameworks to maximize collection depth and efficiency across target sets.

OSINT Analysis Finished Product Development Fuse open source collection with available classified and tactical data to produce multi-layered analytical assessments that provide context, correlation, and operational insight beyond what any single source can offer. Produce finished OSINT analytical products including threat assessments, personality profiles, network analyses, pattern-of-life products, facility assessments, and data visualization review (DVR) products in response to supported unit RFIs. Apply structured analytic techniques (SATs) to ensure OSINT-derived assessments are logically sound, properly sourced, and transparently caveated regarding source limitations and confidence levels.

Develop tailored OSINT products formatted and classified appropriately for the intended audience, from staff action officers to senior SOF commanders. Social Media Intelligence (SOCMINT) Conduct systematic social media exploitation across relevant platforms to identify persons of interest, track narratives, map social networks, and detect operationally significant activities or communications.
