This is your chance to step into an Analytic Methodologist role to support the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency's (NGA) Office of Science and Methodologies (ATS). This role is for a GEOINT professional who understands the operational mission, thinks critically about tradecraft, and wants to help shape how GEOINT capabilities evolve across the enterprise. You will work at the intersection of operational GEOINT, methodology development, advanced GIS, and training. You will work across traditional and non-traditional NTM capabilities, PED, workflows, advanced GIS applications, and GEOINT methodologies, assisting on transforming complex capabilities into practical workflows, repeatable tradecraft, and mission-ready guidance. The work is collaborative, technical, and mission-focused, requiring someone who can move comfortably between analysts, operators, technical experts, and leadership audiences. If you are someone who understands the mission behind the tools, someone who can identify gaps, improve workflows, communicate complex concepts clearly, and contribute to how GEOINT professionals operate in increasingly dynamic environments, join XTS today!
Requirements- Current active Top Secret / SCI clearance

- You have experience of traditional and non-traditional NTM sensors in order to assist in evaluating evolving GEOINT capabilities and help integrate them into operational workflows.
- Strong understanding of GEOINT Processing, Exploitation, and Dissemination (PED) workflows and capabilities to develop methodologies and tradecraft that align with real operational environments.
- You have strong proficiency with GEOINT COTS/GOTS tools including Maven Smart System, Map of the World, iSpy, and ArcGIS Pro to support the operational workflows and geospatial analysis activities central to the mission.
- Ability to travel up to 30% CONUS and OCONUS to support mission and training engagements.
Desired- Experience researching and documenting unique or non-traditional NTM sensor capabilities
- Experience supporting curriculum development or training in modernization efforts
- Experience developing innovative GEOINT methodologies and workflow solutions
