Required Experience
- A minimum of 3 years post-related experience with a Bachelor’s degree, or exceptionally, at least 10 years extensive and progressive expertise in duties related to the function of the post.
- Demonstrated experience contributing to the design, integration and delivery of software solutions supporting collection management, PED workflows, sensor integration and the handling of diverse intelligence‑relevant data sources, including commercially acquired data and analytical services.
- Demonstrated experience contributing to the design, integration and delivery of software solutions supporting collection management, PED workflows, sensor integration and the handling of diverse intelligence‑relevant data sources, including commercially acquired data and analytical services, and the use of AI/ML and LLM‑based services to support core analytical tasks such as prioritising inputs, correlating multi‑source data and preparing ISR‑related intelligence products.
- Demonstrated experience in multi-INT environments (OSINT, IMINT, HUMINT, SIGINT) including the application of AI/ML techniques to improve multi‑source fusion, pattern detection and automated triage of intelligence inputs.
- Strong experience supporting the development of system and solution architectures, ensuring alignment with operational requirements, applicable standards, cross‑domain constraints and established enterprise design patterns for multi‑source intelligence data flows.
- Experience coordinating ICT engineering activities that align with established capability roadmaps, including enhancements to data‑driven software services, adoption of cloud‑ready approaches and the evolution of intelligence‑supporting capabilities.
- Experience maintaining effective working relationships with military, operational and technical stakeholders, including national representatives, NATO bodies and industry partners, to ensure solutions meet operational needs and interoperability expectations across multi‑source intelligence environments and to ensure AI‑enabled capabilities comply with NATO data‑handling, security and interoperability requirements.
- Proven ability to apply analytical and systems thinking to resolve integration challenges such as cross‑domain data flows, metadata consistency, data‑provenance handling and resilient mission‑network design supporting multi‑INT fusion.
- Proven ability to support solution design and technical decision‑making within multi‑disciplinary teams spanning software engineering, intelligence operations, cybersecurity, data engineering and architecture, ensuring coherence across the solution lifecycle.
- Proven ability to communicate technical concepts clearly in written and oral form, including contributing to briefings for senior staff, programme boards and multinational working groups on solution design, risks and operational impacts related to multi source intelligence integration.
Qualifications
