Cyber Manpower and Workforce Analysis Subject Matter Expert

Fort George G. Meade, MD

ASI Government provides government leaders with the expertise they need to navigate acquisition and organizational challenges so they can make an impact and achieve their goals. For over 30 years, ASI has transformed the way government does business, impacting over 70 government agencies across the civilian, defense, and intelligence communities.

Do you thrive on creating unique and impactful value for Federal clients? Are you passionate about partnering with clients and collaborating to create solutions? Do you enjoy the opportunity to drive change that impacts our nation? 

We are looking for smart, curious, driven individuals to join us in partnering with our client to help them solve some of the nation’s most challenging problems. ASI Government serves as a trusted adviser to government leaders seeking improved performance, enhanced organization effectiveness, and strategic change.

ASI Government is seeking a senior Cyber Manpower and Workforce Analysis Subject Matter Expert to support the Department of Defense Cyber Defense Command. The six-month engagement will establish an independent, defensible baseline for the workforce required to execute the command's mission. You will help catalog missions, functions, and tasks; identify workload drivers; build workload-to-FTE estimates; assess current and future manpower gaps; and recommend the appropriate military, civilian, and contractor mix. You will work with command leaders, J-Directorate personnel, cyber mission specialists, manpower and personnel staff, and data owners to separate current mission demand from legacy organizational assumptions. Ideal candidates combine DoD manpower-analysis experience, quantitative workforce modeling, structured interviewing, and the judgment to connect staffing decisions to operational risk.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Develop a mutually exclusive and collectively exhaustive taxonomy of the command's missions, functions, and tasks, with clear ownership boundaries, outputs, dependencies, complexity tiers, authorities, and completion criteria.
  • Define workload-driver trees and success measures that connect mission demand to measurable volume, complexity, service-level, coverage, compliance, and risk factors.
  • Document the data source, owner, collection cadence, known quality issues, and validation method for each key workload driver and performance measure.
  • Build a J-Directorate-aligned interview architecture, data inventory, extraction plan, and mission-function-task-to-role crosswalk that supports complete and non-duplicative analysis.
  • Conduct structured, artifact-based interviews using recent incidents, exercises, patch cycles, recurring reporting, and other representative work to validate task definitions, workload, constraints, and handoffs.
  • Organize needs by mission set, characterize required versus authorized versus on-hand gaps, and express operational consequences through specific mission-impact statements.
  • Develop a transparent workload-to-FTE model using demand drivers, time standards, complexity and variability factors, quality requirements, and explicit assumptions for 24/7 coverage, relief, surge, and major-incident conditions.
  • Forecast workload over three to five years and use scenario and sensitivity analysis to identify the assumptions that drive the greatest variance in manpower requirements.
  • Assess military, civilian, and contractor workforce options using mission authority, inherently governmental considerations, readiness, continuity, security, access, retention, and oversight requirements.
  • Identify critical dependencies and produce decision-ready reports, executive briefings, an implementation roadmap, and a repeatable manpower-refresh toolkit.

Required:

  • Bachelor's degree and eight or more years of relevant Department of Defense experience in manpower analysis, workforce planning, organizational analysis, force management, personnel policy, operations research, or a related field.
  • Direct experience conducting or supporting a DoD manpower study, manpower requirements determination, organizational assessment, or mission-function-task analysis.
  • Demonstrated ability to translate mission demand into workload drivers, time standards, coverage factors, and traceable FTE requirements.
  • Experience modeling persistent or 24/7 operations, including shift coverage, relief factors, surge posture, variability, and operational-risk assumptions.
  • Experience reconciling required, authorized, assigned, and on-hand staffing and identifying the operational causes and effects of manpower gaps.
  • Knowledge of military, civilian, and contractor workforce-mix decisions, including inherently governmental considerations, continuity, access, readiness, and oversight trade-offs.
  • Strong quantitative, facilitation, and executive-writing skills, with the ability to explain assumptions, uncertainty, and mission impact to senior leaders.
  • Active Department of Defense Secret clearance and the ability to satisfy all customer security, suitability, and installation-access requirements.

Preferred:

  • Experience supporting the Department of Defense Cyber Defense Command, Joint Force Headquarters-Department of Defense Information Network, Defense Information Systems Agency, U.S. Cyber Command, or a comparable joint cyber organization.
  • Working knowledge of DoDIN operations and defense, threat-informed risk reduction, incident response, adversary response generation, and support to combatant-command priorities.
  • Experience with J-Directorate structures, the DoD Cyber Workforce Framework, cyber work-role families, skill bands, or comparable workforce taxonomies.
  • Experience applying DOTmLPF-P analysis, scenario planning, sensitivity analysis, assumption registers, and options analysis to manpower or force-design decisions.
  • Advanced experience building auditable workforce models in Excel or a comparable quantitative-analysis environment.
  • Active TS/SCI clearance.

Why Join ASI Government?

  • Help a newly elevated cyber command establish a defensible workforce baseline without carrying forward unsupported legacy assumptions.
  • Connect manpower recommendations directly to mission delivery, operational risk, and higher-headquarters resourcing decisions.
  • Work across cyber mission sets and organizational boundaries with command leaders, operators, workforce specialists, and data owners.
  • Create a repeatable model and refresh toolkit the command can use to sustain its manpower fact base over time.
  • Competitive compensation and comprehensive benefits package available on our careers site.

A "recently separated veteran" means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran's discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.

An "active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran" means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 07/31/2029

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
