  • Lead or manage a team(s) producing intelligence assessments and cyber warning assessments using analytic tradecraft and tools encompassing the full threat intelligence lifecycle (planning, collecting, processing, analyzing, disseminating) to identify and evaluate emerging threats.
  • Monitor DHS or Component architectures, networks, communications, applications, and systems by mining open source and classified data sources to maintain constant awareness of national and international cyber events/threats.
  • Proactively work with Cyber Incident Response teams and cyber experts to implement advanced identification and protection measures against state sponsored threats, sharing intelligence and analysis.
  • Oversee a team(s) performing advanced scanning and probing activities to analyze and interpret all-source intelligence on current and emerging cyber threats using intelligence community analytical standards.
  • Advise Federal and National DHS stakeholder organizations on handling highly complex cybersecurity threats and influencing policy decision making on a range of technical topics within and outside DHS.
  • Leverage collaborative networks of internal and/or external DHS partners and/or national technical experts to facilitate achievement of strategically important DHS and national cybersecurity goals.
