  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills
  • At least 3 years of information security experience
  • At least 2 years of experience working in cyber threat intelligence or all-source intelligence applying intelligence lifecycle principles to cyber threat analysis
  • Experience operationalizing LLM/RAG workflows to summarize cyber events from large, diverse sources; ability to produce analyst and executive briefs with verifiable citations.

Preferred Qualifications:

  • One or more of the following certifications (CISSP, CTIA, CRTIA, CTIS-II, GCTI, GCFA, GCIH, Security+)
  • Experience working in the financial sector
  • Knowledge of CTI tooling integrations (SIEM/SOAR, case management) and automation frameworks for scheduled summarization/enrichment jobs.
