The hardest intelligence problems don't yield to intuition alone — they require rigorous quantitative analysis, disciplined methodology, and the judgment to translate data into decisions. Peraton is seeking an Operations Research Systems Analyst (ORSA) to support USCYBERCOM J2 at Fort Meade, MD, applying advanced decision analytics, mathematical and statistical techniques, data mining, and modeling and simulation to address the command's most pressing operational and planning challenges.
In this role, you'll sit at the intersection of intelligence and quantitative analysis — providing unique, timely assessments on operationally-focused issues that directly inform senior leadership decisions. You'll collaborate with analysts and planners across the J2 enterprise, integrating ORSA methodologies into intelligence production and supporting the development and execution of Strategic and Operational assessments.
This is a senior-level role for a professional who brings both the technical depth to build rigorous analytical frameworks and the operational judgment to make them matter in a fast-moving command environment.
