Overview

micro1 is building an AI training and evaluation project that focuses on national security, intelligence analysis, and government decision-making. The team needs Senior Intelligence Analysts to judge how well AI-generated intelligence assessments hold up against real-world standards. Your background in a civilian intelligence agency, such as the CIA, NSA, MI6/SIS, or GCHQ, will directly shape how these models handle sensitive scenarios. This is a contractor role with remote work and pay between $50 and $100 per hour.

What You'll Do7

  • Score AI-produced intelligence assessments and national security scenarios for accuracy, realism, and analytical rigor.
  • Check intelligence reports, threat assessments, and strategic analyses for factual soundness and logical consistency.
  • Flag unsupported conclusions, missing evidence, internal contradictions, and analytical bias in AI-generated content.
  • Test the credibility of cited sources and judge how well the AI communicates uncertainty in its findings.
  • Write structured feedback that helps improve AI-generated intelligence products and decision-making exercises.
  • Refine scenario-based materials so they mirror actual intelligence and national security challenges.
  • Compare AI outputs against established analytical tradecraft and agency procedures.

Requirements6

  • Current or prior professional experience inside a civilian intelligence agency, with a focus on intelligence analysis, threat assessment, or national security.
  • Deep knowledge of at least one specialty: strategic intelligence, counterterrorism, counterintelligence, geopolitical analysis, or national security threats.
  • A track record of producing or reviewing intelligence assessments, analytical reports, or briefings for government decision-makers.
  • Familiarity with intelligence analysis methodologies, source evaluation, analytical tradecraft, and relevant agency procedures.
  • Strong critical thinking and analytical reasoning skills, plus clear written communication.
  • Ability to assess complex information and present findings in an objective, unbiased manner.

Who Should Apply

The ideal candidate has worked inside a civilian intelligence agency and can spot analytical gaps in AI-generated national security content. You should bring hands-on experience with threat assessment, source evaluation, and structured analytical techniques. If you have written or reviewed intelligence briefings for government officials, this role fits your background.

Salary Insight

The rate for this contractor position is $50 to $100 per hour, as stated in the job listing.

Application tip

In your application, name the specific civilian intelligence agency where you served and describe one intelligence product you evaluated or produced, including the analytical method you used and the decision-maker it supported.
