National Security Division (NSD)
Office of Intelligence - Operations Section
Washington, District of Columbia
Announcement #: Attorney Advisor(s)
Application Deadline: December 11, 2020

The Office of Intelligence (OI) of the National Security Division is seeking one or more experienced attorneys for its Operations Section.  Attorneys in the Operations Section handle NSD's intelligence operations workload, including representing the Government before the FISC.  The Operations Section is responsible for preparing and filing all applications for Court orders pursuant to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA).  The mission of the Operations Section is to ensure that the FBI and other Intelligence Community agencies have the legal tools necessary to conduct intelligence operations in adherence with the requirements and safeguards of the law.  The Operations Section is currently divided into three operational units: the Counterterrorism Unit, the Counterintelligence Unit, and the Special Operations Unit.  The Operations Section also works with OI's Oversight Section in various matters, including overseeing compliance with FISC orders and working on projects involving information sharing among Intelligence Community agencies and modifications to authorities governing the acquisition, retention, and dissemination of FISA-related information.  In addition, the Operations Section closely coordinates with the FBI and other Intelligence Community agencies on intelligence operational matters and provides legal advice to other government agencies on matters relating to FISA and other national security laws and governing authorities.  Due to the unique national security mission of OI, attorneys hired into the Operations Section may be transferred to one of OI's other two sections, Oversight or Litigation, depending on the needs of the office.
