  • Collaborate with internal CyOC analysts, incident responders, and threat intelligence teams to ensure comprehensive RFI responses.
  • Maintain situational awareness of current and emerging cyber threats, vulnerabilities, and attack techniques.
  • Support the development, documentation, and refinement of RFI processing workflows and standard operating procedures (SOPs).
  • Provide technical guidance to subscribers regarding cyber threat mitigation and security best practices.
  • Track RFI status, metrics, and trends to support operational reporting and performance improvement.
  • Coordinate with NIWC Atlantic and DHA stakeholders to ensure mission alignment and timely response to critical intelligence needs.
  • Operate in a high-tempo environment with competing priorities and rapidly evolving threat landscapes.
