About the role

Twenty builds AI-native software for offensive cyber teams operating in complex mission environments. We are looking for a Intelligence Mission Operations Lead to own how Twenty’s capabilities and delivery team integrate with current state and future state cyber operations systems to maximize cyber access generation. You are a cyber intelligence professional whose judgement and reputation are widely respected in the community. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

What they're looking for

  • You came out of NSA, CIA, or FBI — most likely as a GS-14/15. You held direct leadership position directing operational teams or in a senior advisory role where the mission outcome was yours to answer for
  • 12+ years in offensive cyber, cyber operations, or intelligence operations, including 5+ years in a leadership or senior advisory role at NSA, CIA, or FBI
  • Leader or technical director of a cyber mission element or operations directorate
  • Track record of advising a director or senior executives on operational employment: what to task, what to accept, what to stop, and what the authorities allowed
  • Owned targeting, mission planning, execution support, or assessment at a level where you shaped the campaign, not just the engagement
  • Sat in requirements, capability development, or acquisition conversations and know how a capability actually reaches an operator — and where that path usually breaks
More about this role

America is under sustained cyber attack. Our adversaries infiltrate our networks, steal our IP, and degrade the digital infrastructure that modern life runs on. They’ve learned—correctly—that those attacks rarely produce consequences.

Twenty was founded to change that, by making our adversaries think twice before they attack us. Our vision is American and allied primacy in cyberspace—a future where they cannot contest us, deterrence is assured, and the free world remains secure.

Founded in 2024, Twenty Technologies ( www.twenty.io ) industrializes offensive cyber operations for the U.S. and its allies. Headquartered in Arlington, Virginia, Twenty has raised $168M from Khosla Ventures, Accel, Caffeinated Capital, Friends & Family Capital, Point72 Ventures, General Catalyst, and In-Q-Tel.
