Job Description Summary

The problem facing the intelligence community (IC) and DoD is no longer how to get more data – it's understanding how to turn the data they have into answers.

If you have strong analytical skills and a problem-solving mindset, you will have an opportunity to use those skills to directly support our warfighters.

If you enjoy working in a fast-paced, constantly changing environment, DTRA is the DoD's enduring quick-reaction capability for rapid capability development and delivery to proactively adapt to emergent improvised threats.
