Your growth matters to us - explore our career development opportunities.

Threats to our military are regularly evolving and becoming more complex. What if you could apply your proficiency to weaken these developing threats and contribute to the security of our country’s dynamic military resources? With all the information accessible today, it takes a capable specialist to know how to collect, organize, and present data concisely to clients. If you have professional or military experience in analysis, along with a can‑do mindset, we have an opportunity for you to use those skills to help enhance the effectiveness and efficiency of senior government and military decision‑makers and planners, and support real‑world missions in a dynamic, client environment.

As a Nuclear Systems Analyst, you will conduct all‑source analysis on nuclear programs, including production facilities, stockpiles, logistics, system employment, security, and vulnerabilities of facilities and stockpiles. You will perform analysis of supply‑chain vulnerabilities of controlled and dual‑use technologies, materials, and expertise, and analyze state adherence to international and bilateral commitments related to nuclear weapons. You will conduct applied research on specific intelligence issues pertaining to radiological and nuclear threats to U.S. and allied nations.

You will be part of a unique, multi‑discipline team assisting partners to fuse operations and intelligence information to enhance government efforts against emerging radiological and nuclear threats, counter proliferation efforts, and the threat networks that facilitate or employ those threats.
