Cyber Threat Intelligence Analyst, Scams

BUILD A SAFER WORLD.

The company provides AI-powered intelligence solutions that help public and private sector agencies investigate and disrupt crime. The company's platforms enable investigators to trace illicit activity, build cases, and construct operating pictures of threat networks. Leading agencies and businesses worldwide rely on the company to make the world safer and more secure.

ABOUT THE ROLE

The Scam Disruption team is the company's tip of the spear against pig butchering syndicates, romance fraud networks, and investment scam operations that steal billions from victims each year. As a Cyber Threat Intelligence Analyst, you'll lead infrastructure-driven investigative work: pivoting from a single domain, IP, or certificate to the network behind it, following it to the money, and delivering actionable intelligence to law enforcement and government partners.

You'll track scam infrastructure as it evolves, fusing technical, open-source, and on-chain data to build the operational pictures that help dismantle scam operations.

THE IMPACT YOU WILL HAVE

• Start from one indicator — a scam domain, IP, or certificate — and pivot across shared certificates, registrars, nameservers, hosting, and ASNs to map the wider infrastructure behind Southeast Asia scam operations, clustering one-off indicators into campaigns.

• Track campaigns as they evolve — new domains, hosting and registrar changes, certificate reuse — and stay on actors as they rebuild and re-register after takedowns and seizures, anticipating their next infrastructure.

• Drive attribution of threat actors by leveraging open-source and commercially available data.

• Fuse technical infrastructure with the on-chain picture — carrying an investigation from infrastructure through to the wallet, the laundering path, and the cash-out.

• Build clustering logic, detection rules, and automation or tooling to surface malicious infrastructure proactively, rather than waiting on off-the-shelf feeds.

• Produce defensible, calibrated assessments — assigning confidence, weighing evidence across sources, and standing behind a malicious-versus-benign call.

• Synthesize on-chain and off-chain intelligence (OSINT, technical, and financial) into targeting packages that a government or law-enforcement consumer can act on.

• Own the intelligence cycle end to end with minimal supervision, partnering with the Scams SME team and with data, engineering, and product to sharpen the company's collection capabilities.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

• 5+ years of proven experience in cyber threat intelligence or threat infrastructure analysis roles (this is not an entry-level position).

• Hands-on infrastructure attribution: infrastructure pivoting and campaign tracking across shared certificates, registrars, nameservers, hosting, and ASNs — and a habit of thinking in campaigns, not isolated indicators.

• A track record of staying on an actor or campaign over time, including through takedowns and re-registration.

• Hands-on fluency with CTI tooling — passive DNS, WHOIS, certificate or Shodan-style fingerprinting, and phishing monitoring.

• Experience building detection and clustering logic, rules, or automation yourself — not just configuring vendor tooling.

• Attribution tradecraft: using open-source and commercially available data to drive attribution of threat actors.

• Demonstrated ability to produce actionable intelligence or targeting packages for a government, law-enforcement, or equivalent consumer who acted on them, and calibrated, defensible analytic judgment.

• Must be located in the Washington, D.C./MD/VA area (periodic in-person collaboration and travel may be required)

AI FLUENCY AT the company

AI fluency is a baseline expectation at the company.

We believe AI meaningfully changes how top performers operate. We expect every team member to use AI to accelerate and reimagine their craft, not just automate surface tasks.

• Accelerate repeatable workflows

• Structure and solve problems

• Improve output quality

• Increase speed and leverage

You will be evaluated on applied AI fluency during the interview process.

LIFE AT the company

We are building a safer world. That promise shows up in how we work every day.

The company moves FAST. We are a high-velocity, high-ownership team that expects clarity, follow-through, and impact. People who thrive here are energized by hard problems, experimentation, and continuous feedback. If something takes months elsewhere, it will ship here in days.

Our work sits at the intersection of AI, national security, and fighting crime. The problems are complex, the stakes are real, and the environment evolves quickly. The pace and intensity of the work reflect the importance of the mission. As a result, the way we operate requires a high level of ownership, adaptability, collaboration, and creative problem-solving.

At the company, you should expect

• Priorities and targets to change quickly

• Operating with a high degree of ambiguity

• A high level of personal ownership and accountability

• Close collaboration across teams and functions

• Frequent, high-touch communication

• Creative problem-solving and out-of-the-box thinking

• A pace that rewards urgency, adaptability, and outcomes

This environment is energizing for people who enjoy building, solving hard problems, and making progress in situations that are not always fully defined. It also requires thriving in ambiguity, adjusting course as new information emerges, and maintaining focus and positivity in a fast-moving and intense environment.

We also recognize that this style of operating is not for everyone. If you are primarily optimizing for predictability or a consistently balanced workload, we encourage you to use the interview process to pressure-test whether this environment is truly the right fit. We want teammates who thrive here, not just survive here.

If you are excited by meaningful problems, motivated by ambitious goals, and energized by working alongside mission-driven colleagues, there is a good chance you will find the company to be an exceptional place to grow and contribute.

• Inspiring Colleague: We add clarity and energy, not noise. We bring humility, candor, and a one‑team mindset — giving and receiving feedback to make the team stronger.
