Key job responsibilities
A day in the life
As a Senior Intelligence Analyst on ACTI, your day might start by reviewing overnight threat actor activity flagged by our automated triage systems, then pivoting into drafting a finished intelligence assessment on an emerging campaign targeting AWS customers. Mid-morning you collaborate with partner intelligence teams on products. After lunch you collaborate with engineers to refine an AI-powered analytical workflow, then spend the afternoon developing a new product line based on customer feedback. You close the day by mentoring other analysts on analytic tradecraft and reviewing their draft report before publication. No two days look the same, but every day produces intelligence that protects millions of customers.
