Who are we hiring?
The Senior Intelligence Analyst is a mission-critical leadership role within the Threat Management Intelligence Department. Unlike the Security Intelligence Analyst position — which centers on task execution and skill development — the Senior Intelligence Analyst embodies mission ownership, operational leadership, and relentless pursuit of objectives. This individual partners directly with the Senior Director, Intelligence & Security Operations Center and the Manager, Security Intelligence to maintain situational awareness of potential and developing risks capable of impacting personnel and assets across Sphere.
The Senior Security Intelligence Analyst sets the operational tempo for the Intelligence team. When standard methods are exhausted, this role demands creative tradecraft, independent judgment, and persistence until the mission is accomplished or explicitly redirected.

- Serve as the intelligence lead during Tier 1 events, providing real-time analytical support and maintaining continuous communication with operations personnel
- Mentor and develop Intelligence Analysts through formal and informal coaching, quality review of products, and modeling of analytical best practices
- Learn and adapt to new processes, tasks, and leadership responsibilities from other Senior Security Intelligence Analysts, Manager Security Intelligence, and Sr. Director Intelligence and Security Operations Center

- Build and maintain relationships with external partners including law enforcement, federal agencies, and private sector intelligence organizations
- Project Management and maintain intelligence platforms, databases, and case management tools; drive adoption and ensure data integrity
- Lead after-action reviews and contribute to lessons-learned processes following significant events or incidents
- Serve as acting Supervisor, Security Intelligence during periods of absence, including attendance at leadership meetings and oversight of daily operations
- Expand threat reporting volume and audience reach through creative dissemination strategies and stakeholder engagement
- Supervision
- Manager, Security Intelligence
- Sr. Director, Intelligence & Security Operations Center
What do you need to succeed?
