Contribute written and verbal feedback reflecting authoritative analysis and clear communication.
Collaborate with other subject-matter experts to ensure rigorous review and consensus on disputed cases.
Preferred qualifications
Background as a Judge Advocate (JAG) or substantial experience in international humanitarian law and the law of armed conflict (LOAC).
Fluency in rules of engagement (ROE) and understanding of lawful boundaries in military and surveillance operations.
Experience advising on operational legal matters in real-world military or governmental contexts.
Proven ability to communicate complex legal concepts in both written and verbal formats.
Demonstrated skill in policy review, case differentiation, and legal uncertainty reasoning.
Teaching, consulting, or advisory experience in military-legal or international-law contexts.
