DHS Intelligence Analyst - Vermont

Job description

***This position is contingent upon contract award***
Job Title: DHS Intelligence Analyst
Location: Williston, Vermont (On Site)
Program Overview:
Removing aliens present in the United States (U.S.) who have violated U.S. laws is a national public safety priority. To address these threats, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) formed the Targeting Operations Division (TOD) within the ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO) directorate. The primary mission of the TOD is to identify and locate aliens that pose a threat to public safety or national security. The TOD has a current and recurring need for analytical services in support of its mission to identify and locate individuals who have violated U.S. laws. This support includes the analysis of information obtained from commercial and law enforcement databases as well as publicly accessible, open-source and social media platforms.
Successful law enforcement operations require adaptation to changing public safety threats and the ability to continually refine processes and modernize information technologies. Although ICE-ERO continues to make considerable progress in identifying, targeting, and arresting individuals who have violated U.S. laws, the continued use of proactive and modern enforcement tools remains an essential approach to achieve ICE enforcement goals. Analysis of information sources is needed to enhance ICE's mission and program efficiency. Previous approaches to targeting individuals for enforcement action which have not incorporated open web sources and social media information, have had limited success. The individuals targeted for enforcement action purposely employ countermeasures to inhibit ICE-EROs ability to locate them.
Job Summary:
Mission Support ICE ERO's Targeting Operations Division by developing and enhancing leads from commercial, law-enforcement, and open-source/social media data to identify and locate individuals who have violated U.S. laws. Deliver timely, accurate, and actionable outputs aligned to formatting and acceptance criteria.
Key Responsibilities:
  • Intake and triage: Review referrals, validate requirements, and prioritize per daily tasking
  • Collection and exploitation: Conduct open-source/social media research, leverage approved commercial databases, and correlate across sources
  • Lead development: Build person/entity dossiers, confirm identifiers, locations, associations, and patterns of life; document corroboration
  • Quality control: Apply SOP quality gates; achieve high first-pass acceptance and minimal rework
  • Reporting: Produce clear, concise, properly formatted outputs with auditable citations and screenshots/logs as required
  • Coordination: Participate in daily stand-ups; communicate risks, blockers, and emerging leads to Site Lead
  • Compliance and security: Maintain chain of custody for evidence/artifacts; report privacy/security incidents per policy
  • Continuous improvement: Contribute to SOP refinements; suggest tool/process enhancements backed by metrics

Minimum Qualifications:
  • 2+ years of experience in intelligence, investigative analysis, or law-enforcement support (OSINT/social media exploitation strongly preferred)
  • Demonstrated proficiency with at least two of the following: commercial data platforms, link analysis tools, social media exploitation suites, geospatial/lookups
  • Strong analytical writing; ability to produce law-enforcement ready reports with proper sourcing and formatting
  • Proven performance against production targets (timeliness, accuracy, throughput) in a regulated environment
  • Working knowledge of handling PII/SBU/SSI and secure data practices
  • Proficiency with Microsoft 365 (Word, Excel, PowerPoint) and dashboarding basics
  • Bachelor's degree in intelligence studies, criminal justice, international affairs, data analytics, or related field; equivalent experience considered
  • Must be able to obtain and maintain a favorable DHS/ICE fitness determination; periodic reinvestigations (every 5 years or as directed)
  • U.S. Citizenship required
