  • Work on projects with often tight deadlines

What you’ll bring (required):

  • 0-2 years experience as a threat intelligence analyst or in similar position
  • Demonstrably strong writing ability, to be assessed via a writing sample
  • BA/BS, MA/MS degree, or equivalent experience in Computer Science, Information Security, or a related field
  • Experience researching and analyzing cyber threats across either a) multiple industries or b) multiple timeframes (e.g., both weekly and quarterly)
  • Excellent writing skills and ability to convey complex technical and non-technical concepts in both written and verbal products

Additional Skills / Experience (preferred but not required):

  • Working knowledge of an additional language; preference for regions with more active or sophisticated cyberattackers
  • Experience working with clients to produce intelligence requirements, or reports / research in line with client requirements
  • Familiarity with cyber threat intelligence tools such as DomainTools, VirusTotal, SHODAN, etc.
  • Familiarity with scripting languages such as Python, Ruby, Javascript, C, etc.
