Analyze timing architectures supporting military, commercial, and critical infrastructure applications.

Evaluate timing resiliency strategies, backup timing capabilities, and alternative PNT solutions.

Characterize foreign efforts to improve timing accuracy, stability, availability, and continuity.

Assess dependencies between foreign timing capabilities and navigation, communications, cyber, space, and command-and-control systems.

Analyze vulnerabilities, limitations, and potential failure points within adversary timing architectures.

Track foreign research, development, testing, acquisition, and deployment of advanced timing technologies.

Integrate intelligence reporting, open-source information, technical measurements, and scientific literature into comprehensive assessments.

Produce high-quality intelligence reports, technical papers, capability assessments, and executive briefings.

Collaborate with engineers, scientists, intelligence analysts, and operational stakeholders across the Department of Defense and Intelligence Community.

Support future capability forecasting and technology trend analysis related to timing and PNT systems.

Required Qualifications

Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Physics, Aerospace Engineering, Systems Engineering, Mathematics, Computer Science, or a related technical discipline.

3+ years of experience in intelligence analysis, PNT systems, timing technologies, RF systems, communications, space systems, or related technical fields.

Experience conducting technical research and analytical assessments.

Strong written and oral communication skills.

Ability to communicate highly technical concepts to both technical and non-technical audiences.

Demonstrated critical-thinking and problem-solving skills.

Preferred Qualifications

Experience supporting NSIC, DIA, Space Force, Air Force, NGA, NSA, or other Intelligence Community organizations.

Knowledge of atomic clocks, cesium standards, rubidium standards, hydrogen masers, optical clocks, and frequency transfer techniques.

Familiarity with GPS timing, GNSS timing services, terrestrial timing networks, and alternative timing architectures.

Experience analyzing foreign military modernization programs and emerging technologies.

Understanding of telecommunications, network synchronization, and timing distribution systems.

Experience with modeling and simulation tools, data analytics, or scientific programming environments such as Python or MATLAB.

Familiarity with electronic warfare, cyber operations, and their impacts on timing systems.

Experience producing finished intelligence products and briefing senior leaders.

Desired Competencies

Strong technical curiosity regarding foreign technological advancements.

Ability to identify trends, dependencies, and strategic implications from disparate data sources.

Excellent writing skills with experience producing publication-quality intelligence products.

Strong briefing and presentation skills.

Ability to work independently and within multidisciplinary teams.
