Position Summary We are seeking an experienced GEOINT Analyst with a defense background and strong skills in geospatial workflows in ArcGIS Pro, ArcGIS Online and ArcGIS Enterprise. The analyst will design, build, and maintain ArcGIS applications, dashboards, and hosted feature layers that support operational and mission-focused decision making. The ideal candidate understands how to run geoprocessing tools, automate workflows, and fuse multiple data sources (imagery, FMV, sensor feeds, and analyst inputs) into intuitive and secure products that deliver a Common Operating Picture (COP) to operators and decision makers.
Role and Responsibilities - Geospatial Analysis & Production
- Perform advanced GEOINT analysis of mission data using ArcGIS Pro and ArcGIS Enterprise for imagery, sensor, and defense-related datasets
- Translate mission requirements into production-ready geospatial tools, workflows, webmaps, web applications and geospatial products (PowerPoint, Feature Report Widget, StoryMaps).
- Design, manage, edit, publish, and manage operational feature classes and hosted feature layers, web maps, and imagery services supporting live missions.
- Configure and update Common Operating Picture (COP) web applications that integrate analyst inputs, sensor feeds and automated analytics.
- Build ArcGIS Experience Builder applications, Dashboards and web maps tailored to mission workflows for visualization of operational, intelligence, and sensor data.
- Conduct data quality control and apply GEOINT tradecraft standards.
- Real-Time Data & Sensor Integration
- Implement and support real-time data ingestion pipelines using GeoEvent Server and / or Velocity or similar architectures.
- Integrate FMV and video-derived metadata (MISB 0601 / KLV) into operational geospatial workflows.
- Support fusion of available data sources as well as aircraft and ground sensor data into unified geospatial products.
- Integrate field data collection tools (Survey123, Mission Responder, Field Maps).
- Application Development (Automation, Analytics & Engineering)
- Develop and maintain Python scripts (ArcPy, ArcGIS API for Python, Notebook Server, Jupyter Notebooks) for automation, feature updates, parsing metadata, and batch data processing.
- Support spatial data architecture and performance optimization using PostgreSQL/PostGIS or equivalent systems.
- Contribute to machine learning or computer vision pipelines for imagery and video exploitation, where applicable.
- Collaboration & Mission Support
- Serve as a technical point of contact between analysts, operators, and engineers.
- Support rapid prototyping, iterative improvement, and operational sustainment of deployed systems.
- Work closely with analysts, operators, and engineers to develop products that support defense missions.
- Document workflows, runbooks, and standard operating procedures.
- Provide technical support and training to end-users.
Skills and Experience - 5+ years of experience as a GEOINT Analyst or related defense geospatial role.
- Strong expertise with ArcGIS Pro, ArcGIS Online and ArcGIS Enterprise workflows, web maps and applications (Dashboards, Experience Builder, Survey123 Connect)
- Demonstrated ability to design Experience Builder apps, Dashboards, and organize and manage hosted feature layers.
- Familiarity with defense data types (imagery, FMV, SIGINT, AIS, IoT).
- Strong python skills for geospatial automation and workflow development
- Experience supporting real-time data feeds, sensor integration, or streaming architectures preferred.
- Knowledge of FMV (MISB 0601/KLV metadata).
- Demonstrated ability to operate independently in mission-driven environments.
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
- Desirable:
- Active or prior DoD/IC experience (civilian, contractor, or military).
