As a foundational part of Strider’s intelligence cycle, the team builds and maintains core intelligence capabilities through automated data pipelines, enrichment engines, risk methodologies, and AI-enabled workflows.

We acquire and evaluate new data, develop risk methodologies, assess AI-generated intelligence outputs, and design and prototype new data capabilities in close partnership with Engineering and Product. As a Data Intelligence Analyst II, you will collect, analyze, enrich, and integrate data to help Strider’s clients understand economic statecraft risks to their organizations. With a primary focus on the PRC, you will apply Chinese-language expertise, Strider’s intelligence methodology and tradecraft standards, structured analytic techniques, and AI-enabled tools to produce and improve intelligence at scale. At this level, you will independently execute established analytical workflows, exercise judgment when approaching new or ambiguous problems, and identify opportunities to improve Strider’s data, methodologies, and intelligence capabilities. You will also develop deeper expertise in Strider’s data and technology and begin sharing that knowledge with teammates. Your work will contribute directly to intelligence products and capabilities used by companies, research institutions, and government agencies. ## KEY QUALIFICATIONS ## MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS - Bachelor’s or master’s degree in international affairs, data science, computer science, intelligence studies, Chinese language, or a related field, or equivalent relevant experience. - 1–2 years of experience in intelligence analysis, quality assurance, data evaluation, or a related analytical field.
