  • Work with the OPSEC and IS team to help implement/update security controls prioritising cyber defence
  • Identify intelligence gaps and propose new tools and research projects to fill them
  • Conduct briefings for executives, internal stakeholders and external customers

The successful Threat Intelligence Lead will be
  • An experienced threat intelligence leader (or similar)
  • Knowledgeable about the current open source threat landscape and computer networking/infrastructure concepts
  • Highly competent with OSINT tools (e.g., Buscador, Trace Labs OSINT VM, OSINT Framework, Maltego, Shodan, social media scraping tools, etc.)
  • Able to identify, organise, catalogue, and track adversary tradecraft trends — often with incomplete data
  • Experienced using threat intelligence data to influence enterprise architecture or product development decisions
  • An excellent communicator with the ability to clearly articulate and tailor technical content to a variety of audiences
  • Able to travel twice a year, for company events up to two weeks long

Desired Characteristics
  • A professional portfolio of OSINT related scripts, tools, or frameworks
  • Demonstrated involvement in the larger OSINT community (please share relevant links)
  • Degree qualified, with a bachelor's degree in computer science, information security, or a related field
  • Certifications in related areas (e.g. GOSI, SANS SEC487 & SEC587, IntelTechniques OSIP, etc)
  • Experience in a tech company or government/military signal intelligence departments
