With all the information available today, it takes a skilled intelligence analyst to know how to find and interpret the best data to give their clients the right answers. With the critical decisions made in our military every day, we need an intel analyst like you to do just that. As a joint targeting analyst, you use your specialized experience and your attention to detail to give your client the actionable intelligence and context they need.

If you have strong analytical skills and a problem-solving mindset, we have an opportunity to use those skills to support our warfighters and protect our national security.

As a Joint Targeting Analyst, you will conduct advanced all-source intelligence analysis to develop, prioritize, and manage cyber targets. Ensure all targeting activities strictly comply with Joint Publications (JPs), Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Instructions (CJCSIs), and Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) standards. Conduct in-depth Target System Analysis (TSA) to identify critical adversary vulnerabilities. Create and maintain Electronic Target Folders (ETFs), target graphics, and database nominations.

Manage Joint Target Lists (JTL) and coordinate nominations across USCYBERCOM and the Intelligence Community (IC). Provide joint target intelligence support for deliberate and dynamic target engagements. Integrate targeting workflows with the Joint Planning Process (JPP) to support JTF campaign plan development. Assist in building and refining Measures of Effectiveness (MOEs) and Indicators for combat assessments. Coordinate intelligence and combat targeting efforts with Combatant Commands (COCOMs), the Joint Staff, and the Military Targeting Committee.

Align targeting practices with Analytic Tradecraft Standards.
