African Studies Jobs in Silver Spring, MD (NOW HIRING)

All Source Analyst, Mid
The Opportunity:
Do you find yourself constantly looking for more and better information? Do you want a job where you can use your knowledge and research skills to improve national security? Never has the role of an all-source analyst been so meaningful. More connected devices, larger storage capacity, and faster connections have resulted in an explosion of available information. The problem facing the intelligence community is no longer how to get more data, it's understanding how to turn the data they have into answers. That's where you come in. With critical thinking and flexibility, you quickly seek out accurate data sources, sift through the raw data, and turn it into valuable intelligence. If you have strong analytical skills and a problem-solving mindset, we have an opportunity to use those skills to protect our national security.
As an all-source analyst on our team, you'll explore new data sources, create effective queries, and combine information from disparate sources to help your client understand their mission environment. You'll validate the information and apply client tradecraft as you build assessments for senior policymakers. This is a chance to grow your expertise, develop new skills, and share your methodologies with other analysts. We focus on growing as a team to deliver the best support to our customers, so you'll have resources for mentoring and learning new skills and tools. You'll leverage expertise in all-source analysis techniques, methodologies, tools, and databases to inform senior policymakers and DoD officials of military capabilities, political-military issues and military strategies, and the doctrine and intent of the specified client area of responsibility (AOR). You'll use structured methodologies and techniques appropriate to the topic and apply specialized subject matter expertise to guide efforts. You'll analyze the development of products tailored to clients at tactical to strategic levels, including actionable leads, complex written products, and formal or informal briefings. Join us as we provide the right information at the right time to support the critical needs of our policymakers.
