  • 5+ years of military experience, ideally with exposure to GEOINT, ISR, SIGINT, HUMINT, or related areas

  • Deep understanding of DoD operations, contracting requirements, and acquisition cycles

  • Ability to understand and communicate technical intelligence roles and missions

  • Strong sourcing, assessment, and offer negotiation skills

  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management abilities

Preferred:
