OSE Targeter

As an Open Source Targeter at CIA, you will focus on the discovery, and exploitation of publicly available information to drive successful human, technical, or blended operations that advance intelligence objectives and generate operational leads. You will apply specialized tradecraft, tools, and data to find, assess, curate, and disseminate key information of intelligence value through publicly available information channels, such as the internet, social media, commercial datasets, and other data collections.

Open Source Targeters are investigative, pragmatic, and operationally driven. You will serve frequently as an expert in technical or topical domains, geographic areas, and/or foreign language who work with other specialists to solve complex problems, collect key information, and produce foreign intelligence to disrupt threats and promote CIA's mission priorities.

Open Source Targeters work to develop innovative digital solutions to solve complex challenges on elusive targets and communicate these solutions and findings to non-technical partners.

Opportunities may exist for travel, technical and specialized training, and broadening assignments in other CIA offices.
