Everforth ECS is seeking a highly qualified Network Analyst to support the J2 Network Analysis Branch and supports intelligence analysis focused on adversarial Unmanned Systems, or UxS, enabling networks.
The analyst is responsible for identifying, assessing, and characterizing the operational ecosystems that support adversary UxS employment, including supply chains, logistics pathways, communications infrastructure, procurement mechanisms, facilitators, financial activity, transportation networks, and related support structures.
This position supports prior-to-launch mission activities by identifying exploitable vulnerabilities, operational signatures, critical nodes, and opportunities for disruption, interdiction, targeting, or other mission actions before adversary UxS systems are employed. The analyst will integrate intelligence reporting, technical exploitation findings, systems analysis, operational reporting, collection reporting, and partner-derived information to produce actionable intelligence products in support of counter-UxS operations, counter-network analysis, threat assessments, targeting activities, and operational planning.
The Network Analyst will develop and contribute to targeting packages, network assessments, operational support products, indications and warning products, threat assessments, intelligence briefings, link-analysis products, and future threat assessments related to adversarial UxS operational support activities and global enabling networks. The analyst's work will directly support the customer's ability to understand, anticipate, disrupt, and counter adversary UxS capabilities before employment.
PRIMARY DUTIES:
Serve as a Network Analyst within the customer's J2 Network Analysis Branch, conducting all-source and network-focused analysis of adversarial UxS enabling networks, supply chains, operational support structures, communications pathways, procurement activities, facilitators, and associated operational ecosystems.
Analyze adversary UxS operational dependencies, logistical support pathways, transportation networks, financial activity, communications infrastructure, procurement mechanisms, technical support structures, and other enabling functions that contribute to adversary UxS capabilities and employment.
Support prior-to-launch mission activities by identifying critical nodes, operational signatures, vulnerabilities, patterns of life, indicators, and opportunities for disruption, interdiction, exploitation, or targeting before adversary UxS system employment.
Integrate intelligence reporting, collection reporting, technical exploitation findings, systems analysis, operational reporting, and external partner information to develop comprehensive assessments of adversarial UxS support structures and operational methodologies.
Produce and support targeting packages, network assessments, operational support products, indications and warning products, threat assessments, and future threat forecasts related to adversarial UxS networks and enabling activities.
Coordinate with intelligence analysts, operational personnel, targeting elements, law enforcement partners, interagency organizations, Combatant Commands, and external mission partners to build a shared understanding of adversarial UxS operational ecosystems.
Conduct counter-network analysis to identify relationships among facilitators, suppliers, procurement entities, transportation nodes, financial enablers, communications pathways, logistics providers, and operational actors associated with adversary UxS activity.
Support operational planning by providing timely, relevant, and actionable intelligence that informs mission options, targeting priorities, interdiction opportunities, and risk assessments.
Identify emerging trends, evolving threat methodologies, procurement shifts, supply-chain adaptations, and changes in adversary UxS operational support networks.
Prepare written assessments, briefings, link-analysis products, network diagrams, intelligence summaries, and other analytic deliverables for senior leaders, operational stakeholders, and mission partners.
ECS gained market share in 2011 in the Department of Defense and Federal spaces through both organic and acquisition growth. In May, ECS completed its first strategic acquisition with the purchase of OAK Management, Inc., a leading provider of marine environmental services, ship systems engineering, maritime consulting and platform acquisition management. The OAK acquisition kicked off ECS’ intention to add tactical acquisitions as a part of its long term strategy to supplement and expand upon organic growth and to build enterprise value. ECS closed out 2011 with the acquisition of Paradigm Technologies, Inc. The Paradigm transaction added approximately 200 employees to ECS’ existing 900+ employees. Paradigm also added new Defense clients for ECS, including the Missile Defense Agency, the Navy’s Program Executive Officer for Integrated Warfare Systems, the United States Marine Corps, and the U.S. Marshals Service.
In 2012, ECS completed the acquisition of iLuMinA Solutions, Inc. iLuMinA brings large-scale Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software implementation and infrastructure design and development to ECS’ expanding capabilities.
ECS will continue to invest in corporate infrastructure and quality processes as we grow and enhance our ability to offer professional excellence to both our customers and our employees.
