Job description

Position overview
Info Gain Consulting (IGC) is seeking a Senior OSINT Program Lead to direct the open-source intelligence (OSINT) capability-support mission thread for a federal law-enforcement and intelligence customer. You will maintain OSINT program plans and roadmaps, align capability investments and workflow improvements to mission priorities, support requirements and acquisition activities, provide domain content for training and assessment, and help document the lawful and auditable use of publicly available information.
This is a capability-support and analytic-workflow leadership role. You will serve as IGC's senior subject-matter expert for the OSINT thread and coordinate with technology, compliance, acquisition, and assessment specialists. The position works with publicly available information within authorized systems and processes; it does not independently collect, task, analyze, retain, or disseminate information outside Government authorization and does not make intelligence, targeting, vetting, or operational decisions.
Key responsibilities
  • Lead day-to-day OSINT program-support coordination and serve as IGC's senior subject-matter expert for the mission thread.
  • Develop and maintain OSINT program plans and roadmaps that sequence capability adoption, sustainment, and decision points against mission needs.
  • Align OSINT capability planning with broader intelligence and operational priorities and coordinate with Government stakeholders.
  • Track OSINT schedules, risks, issues, interdependencies, and compliance dependencies and provide status and escalation inputs.
  • Facilitate requirements elicitation for OSINT tools, platforms, data services, and workflows.
  • Support vendor-neutral market research, acquisition documentation, and evaluation-criteria development.
  • Co-lead the monthly License Utilization Report using Government-provided user, license, and utilization data.
  • Provide OSINT subject-matter content for training plans, job aids, and role-based workflow training.
  • Support lawful, appropriate, and auditable use of publicly available information, including traceability, data-handling, retention, and review controls.

Required qualifications
  • Bachelor's degree in intelligence studies, criminal justice, international affairs, political science, data or information studies, public policy, or a related field; four additional years of directly relevant experience may substitute for the degree.
  • At least 8 years in intelligence analysis, OSINT capability support, analytic tradecraft, intelligence-program support, targeting or vetting workflow support, or a comparable mission field.
  • At least 3 years leading an intelligence, OSINT, analytic-workflow, or capability-management workstream.
  • Demonstrated ability to translate intelligence or operational needs into capability plans, roadmaps, requirements, metrics, or training content.
  • Working knowledge of publicly available information, source evaluation, analytic workflow controls, auditability, privacy, civil liberties, and First Amendment safeguards.
  • Ability to support law-enforcement or intelligence customers without crossing into unauthorized collection or inherently governmental decision-making.
  • Strong analytical writing, briefing, facilitation, and stakeholder-coordination skills.
  • Proficiency with Microsoft 365 and tools used to develop roadmaps, requirements, reports, and briefings.

Preferred qualifications
  • Experience supporting DHS, CBP, another federal law-enforcement or intelligence organization, or a comparable fusion, targeting, vetting, or analytic environment.
  • Experience with commercial OSINT tools, data services, licensing models, and program-level utilization analysis.
  • Experience developing acquisition requirements or evaluation criteria for intelligence tools, platforms, or data services.
  • Experience building role-based training or job aids for analysts and supervisors.
  • Formal training in analytic tradecraft, OSINT governance, structured analytic techniques, privacy, or civil-liberties protection.

Work arrangement
This position reports to the Program Manager. On-site performance depends on completion of applicable Government suitability, credentialing, workstation, facility, and access requirements. Work arrangements remain subject to Government direction and final contract requirements.
Security and access requirements
This position requires successful completion of applicable background investigation, suitability, fingerprinting, credentialing, training, nondisclosure, and access requirements. The employee must be able to obtain and maintain any required Personal Identity Verification (PIV) credential and associated facility, system, and information access; comply with secure-facility restrictions; and properly safeguard Controlled Unclassified Information, personally identifiable information, sensitive personally identifiable information, and other protected information. Candidates must satisfy any citizenship, immigration-status, suitability, and access requirements applicable to the assigned facility, system, or information.
Role boundaries
This position supports Government-authorized OSINT programs, workflows, requirements, training, assessment, and governance using publicly available information within authorized systems. It does not independently collect, task, analyze, retain, or disseminate information outside Government authorization and does not make targeting, vetting, intelligence, operational, or law-enforcement decisions, which remain Government functions.
Contingency statement
This position is contingent upon contract award, funding, final staffing approval, successful completion of applicable suitability and credentialing requirements, and confirmation of the anticipated start date.
