- Demonstrated proficiency in authoring clear, structured written content in English and communicating complex concepts verbally.

- Experience mentoring, teaching, or leading professionals in threat intelligence disciplines.

- Prior participation in AI system evaluation, red-teaming, or related quality assurance projects is a plus.
