Intel Analyst - Foreign Ownership Control Influence

About the role

CACI is seeking for an Intel Analyst who will perform Foreign Ownership Control Influence (FOCI) Review that will develop and implement mitigation strategies to protect the integrity of U.S. defense systems. By providing detailed risk assessments and actionable intelligence, these analysts enable senior leadership to make informed decisions that deny adversaries access to critical technologies, secure the defense industrial base, and ensure the long-term technological superiority of the United States. This position will support C5ISR Center at Aberdeen Proving Ground, Maryland. Responsibility: Advise and assist the S&T community on developing CUAS procedures for possible future needs in the mid-to-long term. Leverage a deep understanding of electronics and RF systems to determine the function and criticality of specific components (e.g., FPGAs, processors, GNSS modules, sensors, datalinks) and identify key technological chokepoints. Evaluate the technical sophistication and performance limitations of foreign unmanned systems (UxS) platforms through engineering-level analysis of their bill of materials and component integration. Analyze the bills of materials for sensitive U.S. projects to identify high-risk components and potential supply chain vulnerabilities to foreign influence or exploitation. Advise and assist the Science & Technology (S&T) community on developing countermeasures and procedures to address future technological threats. Conduct comprehensive Foreign Ownership, Control, or Influence (FOCI) reviews of entities within the Defense Industrial Base to identify and mitigate national security risks. Assess system and component criticality, identify critical suppliers, conduct supply chain threat and vulnerability assessments, map multi-tier supply chains, and provide actionable risk mitigation recommendations. Identify and investigate suspected front companies, procurement agents, and illicit distributors used to acquire dual-use technologies and components for adversarial use. Provide detailed risk assessments on potential vendors and partners by cross-referencing them against known foreign procurement networks and illicit actors. Conduct evaluations and deliver briefings detailing potential foreign influence or threats to current and projected procurement efforts. Apply advanced research methods and analytic methodologies to multifaceted problems associated with emerging commercial technologies and their supply chains, delivering comprehensive technical products to stakeholders. Brief technical findings and strategic assessments to diverse audiences, including senior leadership, non-technical stakeholders, and operational planners. Exploit and synthesize data from various intelligence disciplines (e.g., TECHSIGINT, SIGINT/CYBER, MASINT) across all classification levels to produce holistic assessments. Attend and participate in meetings, working groups, and conferences to represent command priorities and stay abreast of emerging threats. Demonstrate the ability to perform all functional duties independently with minimal supervision. Must be able to travel CONUS and OCONUS, potentially to conflict areas on short notice, to support mission requirements and disseminate timely threat information.
