JOB DESCRIPTION

Use your cyber and IT background to become an FBI Special Agent!

We need professionals experienced in network security, computer science and software engineering to prevent cybercrimes, data theft, ransomware and other attacks to our national security.

You can expect continued specialized training once onboard and opportunities to work on some of the Bureau's most complex cases.

The scope and scale of our investigations provide unique challenges unlike anything you could work on in the private sector.
