Job Description

Title:
Adversary Timing Analysis Engineer / Analyst Position Summary KBR is seeking a highly qualified Adversary Timing Analysis Engineer/Analyst to support intelligence assessments of foreign timing technologies, architectures, and capabilities that enable military, civil, commercial, and critical infrastructure operations. The successful candidate will analyze foreign timing ecosystems, including atomic clocks, frequency standards, timing distribution networks, resilient timing architectures, and Positioning, Navigation, and Timing (PNT) systems. The analyst will evaluate adversary capabilities to generate, distribute, maintain, and protect precise timing while assessing associated dependencies, vulnerabilities, and modernization efforts. This position directly supports national-level intelligence production and provides critical insights into foreign capabilities that underpin communications, navigation, weapon systems, financial networks, power grids, space systems, and command and control infrastructures. Key Responsibilities Conduct technical intelligence analysis of foreign timing systems, capabilities, and supporting technologies. Assess adversary development and employment of atomic clocks, frequency standards, precision oscillators, timing sources, and synchronization technologies. Analyze timing architectures supporting military, commercial, and critical infrastructure applications. Evaluate timing resiliency strategies, backup timing capabilities, and alternative PNT solutions. Characterize foreign efforts to improve timing accuracy, stability, availability, and continuity. Assess dependencies between foreign timing capabilities and navigation, communications, cyber, space, and command-and-control systems. Analyze vulnerabilities, limitations, and potential failure points within adversary timing architectures. Track foreign research, development, testing, acquisition, and deployment of advanced timing technologies. Integrate intelligence reporting, open-source information, technical measurements, and scientific literature into comprehensive assessments. Produce high-quality intelligence reports, technical papers, capability assessments, and executive briefings. Collaborate with engineers, scientists, intelligence analysts, and operational stakeholders across the Department of Defense and Intelligence Community. Support future capability forecasting and technology trend analysis related to timing and PNT systems. Required Qualifications Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Physics, Aerospace Engineering, Systems Engineering, Mathematics, Computer Science, or a related technical discipline. 3+ years of experience in intelligence analysis, PNT systems, timing technologies, RF systems, communications, space systems, or related technical fields. Active TS/SCI security clearance. Knowledge of precision timing concepts and associated technologies. Experience conducting technical research and analytical assessments. Strong written and oral communication skills. Ability to communicate highly technical concepts to both technical and non-technical audiences. Demonstrated critical-thinking and problem-solving skills. Preferred Qualifications Experience supporting NSIC, DIA, Space Force, Air Force, NGA, NSA, or other Intelligence Community organizations. Knowledge of atomic clocks, cesium standards, rubidium standards, hydrogen masers, optical clocks, and frequency transfer techniques. Familiarity with GPS timing, GNSS timing services, terrestrial timing networks, and alternative timing architectures. Experience analyzing foreign military modernization programs and emerging technologies. Understanding of telecommunications, network synchronization, and timing distribution systems. Experience with modeling and simulation tools, data analytics, or scientific programming environments such as Python or MATLAB. Familiarity with electronic warfare, cyber operations, and their impacts on timing systems. Experience producing finished intelligence products and briefing senior leaders. Desired Competencies Strong technical curiosity regarding foreign technological advancements. Ability to identify trends, dependencies, and strategic implications from disparate data sources. Excellent writing skills with experience producing publication-quality intelligence products. Strong briefing and presentation skills. Ability to work independently and within multidisciplinary teams. Attention to detail and commitment to analytic rigor.
