Job Description

The Economic Security Operations Unit (ESOU) is seeking mission-driven finance experts from the private sector to contribute to research and analysis at the intersection of economics, finance, and national security. Ensuring U.S. economic competitiveness in the future will require informed analyses to identify the investments that need to be made both domestically and internationally. ESOU will conduct a series of analyses of economic infrastructure in various regions to identify investments that are both economically feasible and strategically relevant to U.S. national security objectives.

The successful candidate will work with an interdisciplinary research team on economic analyses that focus on maintaining U.S. competitiveness, developing public-private partnerships, and identifying key strategies to advance U.S. economic and global security interests.

This position is up to full-time for one year, contingent on funding availability.

Duties
  • Collaborate with a multi-disciplinary team to develop and test due diligence processes for assessing and validating the economic viability and national security relevance of commercial economic infrastructure projects (e.g., ports, data centers, energy production).

  • Develop quantitative approaches to analyzing relevant data and conduct financial analyses.

  • Draft technical reports and presentations for technical and policy audiences.

  • Manage budgets and subcontractors, coordinate work among project team members, and ensure deadlines are met.

  • Engage with policymakers, industry partners, and external researchers to strengthen analysis and recommendations.

Qualifications

Required:

  • Experience evaluating large-scale commercial economic infrastructure projects.

  • Demonstrated knowledge of complex financing arrangements, including familiarity with capital markets and experience working on multi-stakeholder financing teams.

  • Experience with U.S. government co-financing options for large-scale infrastructure projects.

  • Strong analytic skills with the ability to synthesize complex technical and policy issues into actionable recommendations.

  • Proven organizational skills with experience managing research teams, budgets, contracts/subcontracts, and timelines.

  • Excellent communication skills, both written and verbal, adaptable to technical and non-technical audiences.

  • Experience developing and facilitating partnerships with public and commercial entities.

Preferred:

  • Familiarity with multiple sources of economic and finance data.

  • Proficiency in programming languages such as Python, Java, or C/C++.

  • Active U.S. government Top Secret security clearance, with preference for Department of Defense clearance.

Education and Experience
  • MA/MS/MBA or equivalent advanced degree in finance, economics, business, political science, international security, or related field.

  • Minimum of 20 years of relevant work experience at an internationally recognized investment bank, hedge fund, private equity firm, or comparable financial institution.
