What you will do:
- Develop tools and automated workflows to sift through large datasets and identify information relevant for modeling and intelligence efforts
- Apply all-source intelligence tradecraft and technical analysis to create system models from circuit diagrams, schematics, source code, signal processing algorithms, and reverse-engineered components
- Leverage intelligence databases and analytic tools to support technical collection and threat modeling
- Create custom query logic and scripts to extract, correlate, and analyze data across multiple databases and intelligence repositories
- Work in multi-disciplinary teams to tackle challenging problems from a wide variety of technologies to develop innovative cybersecurity solutions
- Apply network analysis, communications intelligence (COMINT), and signals intelligence (SIGINT) tradecraft to technical problems
- Document, demonstrate, and present research findings to technical and non-technical audiences
- Brief leadership on project status, technical findings, and operational impacts
- Solve real world problems that have an impact on national security

- General understanding of electrical engineering: Circuit and flow diagrams, signal processing chains, network traffic data
- Proficiency with modeling tools: SPICE, MATLAB, or similar
- Willing to travel frequently from an STR office to the customer location in MD, or spend the majority of time at customer location
Nice to have:
- SIGINT, COMINT, or Cryptologic experience (military or civilian)
- Experience with network analysis and communications systems: Wireshark, protocol analysis, satellite communications
