Opportunity for an experienced Counter-Network Domain SME to join a mission-critical IT operations program supporting U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP). Your expertise will be instrumental in developing actionable intelligence products, supporting predictive modeling, and collaborating with internal and external stakeholders to advance CBPs layered defense strategy. You will serve as a senior advisor to program leadership, CBP stakeholders, and agile development teams, translating complex counter-network operations and targeting requirements into actionable analytic solutions. As part of an agile team, and counter-network domain subject matter expert, you will:

• Lead domain validation of all counternetwork predictive models, targeting rules, and riskscoring algorithms to ensure they accurately reflect realworld threat behaviors, network structures, and CBP operational priorities.
• Provide subject matter expertise on transnational criminal organizations (TCOs), illicit facilitation networks, threatactor behaviors, and networkbased targeting methodologies.
• Advise modeling teams on domainspecific requirements for AI/ML model development, including behavioral indicators, network features, relationship mappings, and missionrelevant performance thresholds.
• Review and validate analytic products, dashboards, network visualizations, and targeting outputs to confirm they accurately represent threat networks, linkages, and operational relevance.
• Identify intelligence gaps in current counternetwork targeting methodologies and recommend model refinements, enriched data sources, or advanced analytic approaches to enhance detection of emerging threat networks and illicit pathways.

MEANINGFUL WORK AND PERSONAL IMPACT

Your expertise will contribute to identifying, disrupting, and mitigating threats posed by illicit networks, TCOs, and other hostile actors. Key responsibilities include:

• Performing indepth research and analysis of illicit networks, facilitator relationships, travel patterns, communication linkages, and behavioral indicators to identify anomalies and potential threats.

• Supporting predictive modeling and machine learning initiatives to enhance networkbased targeting accuracy, including developing and refining rule sets, behavioral signatures, and networkcentric targeting concepts.
• Conducting entity resolution and data mining across large, multisource datasets to improve identification of highrisk individuals, facilitators, and network nodes.
• Utilizing bigdata platforms and advanced query techniques (SQL and nonSQL) to extract, link, and analyze information relevant to transnational threat networks.
• Producing and reviewing regular and adhoc intelligence products, including network assessments, trend analyses, targeting recommendations, and executive briefings for senior CBP leadership.
• Coordinating with CBP and Intelligence Community partners to integrate classified and unclassified data sources, network intelligence, and analytic findings for comprehensive threat assessments.
• Supporting cloud migration efforts for networkanalysis platforms and data systems, ensuring analytic workflows and data dependencies transition effectively to cloud environments.
• Performing deepdive analysis of threatnetwork behaviors, crossborder facilitation patterns, operational indicators, and anomaly signatures to identify highrisk actors and emerging illicit methodologies.

WHAT YOULL NEED TO SUCCEED

• Minimum of ten (10) years in counter-network domain analysis, intelligence, or related operational roles.
• Demonstrated ability to produce clear and concise written and verbal reports for operational and senior-level decision-making purposes.
• Strong analytical skills with experience handling complex data sets to identify trends, threats, and actionable insights.
• Proficiency in utilizing analytic tools, software, and methodologies for intelligence analysis, modeling, and reporting.
• Experience working collaboratively with multiple stakeholders, including federal agencies, intelligence entities, or operational units.
• Must be a U.S. citizen and able to obtain DHS Public Trust clearance, successfully pass CBP Background Investigation (BI), and attain EOD to start work. Top Secret clearance preferred; TS/SCI may be required for certain tasks.

Preferred Education and Experience

• Bachelors Degree in Intelligence Studies, National Security, Criminal Justice, Cyber Intelligence, Data Analytics, or a related field.
• Relevant certifications in data analytics, database management, or cybersecurity are desirable.
• Previous CBP OIT support experience and mission/ environment understanding is highly desired (preference to people with active CBP BI and a CBP badge).
