About the RoleRedhorse is seeking a Lead Intelligence Analyst to serve as the operational architect and "North Star" within a cross-functional team building technology-enabled, mission-critical intelligence workflows. Most intelligence transformation technologies fail because they are disconnected from how analysts think and act under pressure-this role exists to prevent that.
Working in close partnership with graph data scientists and data engineers, you will ensure that our state-of-the-art analytic platform (GraphAware Hume) reflects real-world operational tradecraft. This is not a role focused on producing intelligence products; it is a role focused on building the systems that produce decision advantage. You will translate complex intelligence questions into structured requirements and ensure every line of code results in a user experience that delights analysts and survives contact with reality.
Key Responsibilities- Design and build investigative analytic workflows directly within GraphAware Hume in partnership with technical teams.
- Translate real-world intelligence questions into structured graph queries, visualizations, and repeatable analytical playbooks.
- Act as the primary voice of the intelligence user, distinguishing between perceived needs and actual operational requirements.
- Validate system outputs against real-world operational scenarios to identify gaps in data representation or entity resolution.
- Drive platform adoption through hands-on engagement, mentoring, and high-impact training for new and advanced users.
- Ensure technical development remains anchored to mission outcomes, ensuring outputs are explainable and defensible.
- Continuously refine system behavior based on analyst feedback and the evolving mission landscape.
Required Experience/Clearance- Active Top Secret / SCI eligibility is required.
- 10+ years of experience in all-source intelligence analysis within the DoD, IC, or federal law enforcement environments.
- Demonstrated experience supporting operational or mission-critical decision-making under time pressure.
- Proven ability to translate complex mission problems into structured technical requirements for engineering teams.
- Deep understanding of intelligence tradecraft, analytical reasoning, and multi-source data fusion.
- Experience working within Agile development cycles to deliver incremental mission value.
Desired Experience- Direct experience using or configuring the GraphAware Hume platform.
- Experience working in or alongside graph-based data environments (Neo4j, etc.).
- Familiarity with data science concepts, including entity resolution and relationship extraction.
- Experience developing and delivering training curricula for intelligence software or platforms.
- Background in Design Thinking or Lean Startup methodologies.
