Your Team & Role
As the Lead for Strategic Threat Intelligence, you will help establish and mature a capability that connects internal security data with the external threat landscape to inform long-term security decisions. You will analyze internal trends alongside industry intelligence and partner insights to identify attack patterns and areas of opportunity. Using Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) telemetry and enterprise analytics platforms, you will create dashboards and metrics that visualize these trends and deliver clear, actionable intelligence reports and briefings to senior stakeholders and technology leaders—helping them understand how internal trends align with external threats and where to focus resources.

You will also define and refine Priority Intelligence Requirements (PIRs) to ensure intelligence efforts align with stakeholder needs and business risk priorities. Your insights will help leadership make informed decisions about resource allocation and risk mitigation strategies. Additionally, you will collaborate with external partners and industry groups (e.g., ISACs) to incorporate broader threat context into your analysis.

As a lead, you will guide and mentor junior analysts—sharing best practices, reviewing their work, and helping them develop their analytical and reporting skills. Your work will ensure stakeholders receive intelligence that is timely, relevant, and actionable, while laying the foundation for a strategic intelligence function that evolves with the threat landscape.

• Collaborate with external partners and industry groups (e.g., ISACs) to incorporate broader threat context into analysis.
• Mentor junior analysts by reviewing their work, sharing best practices, and helping them strengthen analytical and reporting skills.
