The Office of Special Investigations (OSI) is seeking qualified candidates for consideration to serve as an Investigative Analyst (IA) in the Analysis Unit (AU). The Analysis Unit specializes in tactical intelligence analysis to support and advance OSI’s criminal and administrative investigations. The Unit further performs statistical and trends analysis regarding violence or misconduct within correctional facilities to identify trends and organization risk on a statewide, regional, and per-facility basis. It produces and disseminates bulletins, white papers, and memos to support OSI executives, as well as departmental and facility-based leadership, in efficient decision-making and policy recommendations. The Unit generates data, reports, and findings that enable decision-makers within the Department to make more informed risk‑mitigation decisions based on an “intelligence‑led” model.
OSI is expanding the Analysis Unit to meet analytic needs of OSI, the DOCCS Executive team, and facility superintendents.
Minimum Qualifications
Appropriate licensure and certifications (including being or becoming a peace officer qualified to carry a firearm).
Ability to pass an OSI background check.
Two years of investigative/analytical experience; however, a bachelor’s degree in criminal justice, crime analysis, intelligence analysis, homeland security or a closely related field can serve as a substitute. An associate degree in the aforementioned concentrations can serve as a substitute for one year of experience.
Basic proficiency with Microsoft Excel.
Demonstrative evidence of integrity, ethical behavior, and the ability to conduct fair, thorough, and impartial investigations.
Preference for candidates that can demonstrate proficiency in statistical analysis, intelligence analysis, writing, and public speaking.
If the person is located in an OSI office besides the Albany office, travel to Albany as needed will be necessary.
Ability to be on‑call, travel for trainings, and deploy across the state to meet the Office’s operational needs.
OSI is committed to promoting diversity and inclusion by ensuring equal justice and opportunity without discrimination against any person based on their protected class.
