Archer Technologies, headquartered in Silicon Valley, is a leader in next-generation aerospace building an end-to-end advanced air mobility platform delivering air taxis, unmanned aircraft systems (UAS), and aviation-related AI solutions to commercial aerospace and defense customers worldwide.
The Global Security Operations Center (GSOC) is the nerve center for security and risk information at Archer. This role is a blended operator and analyst position reporting to the Sr. Director, Global Security. You will run core GSOC monitoring and dispatch operations while performing protective intelligence, open-source intelligence (OSINT) risk monitoring, and travel risk monitoring. This is a proof-of-concept role as the GSOC and its intelligence capability are being stood up, operating with real autonomy and helping to write protocols and build workflows from the ground up.
Key responsibilities include:
**GSOC Operations:** Monitor computer vision alarms, video surveillance, access control, and life-safety systems across Archer's sites. Dispatch and coordinate response to incidents, alarms, and assistance requests following established SOPs and escalation protocols. Document incidents accurately and maintain clear logs, notifications, and shift communications. Provide real-time support and situational awareness to field security teams and executive protection details.
**Protective Intelligence & OSINT Monitoring:** Conduct OSINT monitoring to protect Archer's people, assets, and reputation by watching social media, news, online forums, and other open sources for threats to personnel, facilities, operations, and brand. Support executive protection with protective intelligence including threat monitoring, person-of-interest research, and event/venue intelligence. Produce timely alerts and concise assessments, escalating emerging risks appropriately.
**Travel Risk Monitoring:** Monitor global travel risk and support destination risk assessments and advisories for traveling employees and executives. Track geopolitical, security, weather, and other events affecting employee travel, flagging disruptions and threats promptly.
**Products, Coordination & Continuous Improvement:** Produce clear, concise written products including incident logs, spot reports, shift summaries, and intelligence briefs. Coordinate closely with fellow operators, executive protection, and business stakeholders. Write and refine SOPs, protocols, and workflows, helping build the GSOC and intelligence function's sources, tooling, and reporting standards from the ground up. Exercise sound, independent judgment during incidents where written protocols are limited or evolving.
**Requirements:**
- Proven experience (typically 4+ years) in a GSOC, security operations center, dispatch, monitoring environment, and/or intelligence analysis/OSINT, or related security, military, or law enforcement role, with maturity and track record to help stand up a program
- Ability to monitor multiple systems simultaneously, stay calm under pressure, and act decisively during incidents
- Strong aptitude for sound, independent judgment in ambiguous situations where written protocols are limited or evolving
- Demonstrated ability to help write protocols and SOPs and build workflows, not just follow them
- Ability to operate with high degree of autonomy and reliability, setting the standard for a proof-of-concept program
- Open-source research skills, or strong analytical foundation with ability to learn OSINT tradecraft quickly
- Strong written and verbal communication skills, with ability to produce clear logs, reports, and intelligence products
- Sound judgment and discretion in handling sensitive information and deciding what to share, with whom, and when
- Comfort working across multiple security and technology platforms
- Flexibility and willingness to support evolving coverage needs, including some evenings, weekends, or holidays
- Uncompromising ethics and integrity, and self-awareness to admit mistakes quickly and learn from them
**Preferred Qualifications:**
- Active U.S. government security clearance
- Protective intelligence or OSINT experience directly supporting an executive protection program
- Experience with travel risk or geopolitical risk monitoring
- Familiarity with GSOC platforms, intelligence and OSINT tools, social media monitoring, and dark web research
- Foreign language proficiency
- Experience in aerospace, defense, technology, or another high-profile, multi-site environment
