OPIR Analyst (Overhead Persistent Infrared)

Belong Connect Grow with KBR!

Program Summary:

We are seeking an experienced Overhead Persistent Infrared (OPIR) Analyst to support critical national security missions by exploiting OPIR sensor data to detect characterize and report on missile events thermal signatures and other time-sensitive activities. The ideal candidate will apply advanced remote sensing techniques and geospatial intelligence (GEOINT) methodologies to produce actionable intelligence in support of the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) and other interagency partners.

Key Responsibilities

Exploit OPIR and other remotely sensed data to identify facilities infrastructure and features of interest using PIR (Priority Intelligence Requirements)-driven imagery analysis to satisfy DIA and NGA mission requirements.
Detect track and characterize thermal events missile launches industrial activity and other phenomena visible in the infrared spectrum.
Produce high-quality intelligence reports and briefings for multi-agency customers including senior policymakers and operational customers.
Maintain and update an enterprise geodatabase containing 170000 features to support multiple analytic teams and enable consistent repeatable exploitation.
Develop and maintain ArcGIS Portal Web Apps/Sites to disseminate intelligence products and support collaborative analysis.
Generate metrics-based intelligence products to quantify mission impact analytic throughput and product quality.
Collaborate with cross-functional teams to integrate OPIR-derived insights with other GEOINT sources (e.g. EO SAR MASINT).
Stay current with evolving OPIR sensor capabilities processing techniques and analytic tradecraft.

Required Qualifications

Active TS/SCI security clearance.
Bachelors degree in a relevant field (Remote Sensing Geospatial Intelligence Physics Electrical Engineering Astronomy or related STEM discipline); Masters degree preferred.
5 years of professional experience in OPIR analysis missile warning/tracking or related infrared remote sensing exploitation (additional experience may substitute for advanced degrees).
Demonstrated expertise in exploiting remotely sensed infrared data to produce intelligence reports for multi-agency customers.
Strong proficiency with ArcGIS suite including:
- ArcGIS Pro / ArcMap for advanced geospatial analysis.
- ArcGIS Portal administration and Web App/Site development.
- Enterprise geodatabase management and feature editing.
Experience producing metrics-based intelligence products and dashboards to communicate analytic performance.
Solid understanding of PIR-driven analysis and requirements satisfaction processes within the IC.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills for authoring intelligence reports and briefing senior stakeholders.
Ability to work in a fast-paced high-tempo environment with time-sensitive deliverables.

Preferred Qualifications

Experience with OPIR-specific tools and platforms (e.g. Advanced Geospatial Intelligence Environment (AGIE) RemoteView ENVI or equivalent).
Familiarity with missile event detection characterization and reporting workflows.
Knowledge of additional sensor modalities (multispectral hyperspectral SAR) and multi-INT fusion.
Scripting experience in Python (ArcPy) or MATLAB for automation and custom processing.
Prior military DIA NGA or IC analytic experience.
Relevant certifications (e.g. NGA GEOINT certifications Certified Mapping Scientist Remote Sensing).
