OSINT & Investigations jobs and hiring requirements
Application security, security operations, and risk engineering. Counts are derived from employer-published vacancies; current roles use a 30-day observation window and older still-published listings are shown separately.
What the work involves
OSINT specialists investigate a defined question using publicly available information. The work combines collection, source verification, identity resolution and reporting. Security, fraud and commercial investigations use different subject matter, so the question and evidence standard matter more than a long list of search tools.
