  • Travel to CONUS/OCONUS locations (including conflict zones) for mission-critical briefings and technical support.
  • Provide research and authored assessments to support operations, engineering partners, and senior leadership across DoD and partner agencies.
  • Contribute to WTI device profiling, trend analysis, and exploitation database entries (e.g., WEAT, SOFEX).
  • Present and defend assessments to technical and operational stakeholders in the CEM exploitation community.

Qualifications & Requirements

  • BA/BS or associate's degree plus 3 yrs. experience or 6 yrs. of experience.

  • Strong written and oral communication skills with the ability to brief leadership and mission partners.
  • Familiarity with CENTCOM, AFRICOM, or other COCOM AORs.
