Cyber Operations Planner

Responsibilities

The USFK Joint Cyberspace Center (JCC) establishes, provides, and maintains a leading-edge cyberspace operations capability supporting Combined, United States, and Republic of Korea (ROK) operations to maintain cyberspace superiority during armistice, contingencies, and war.

As a CO Planner, you will play a critical role in integrating offensive cyberspace operations into the Combined Forces Command (CFC) and USFK’s Operations Plans (OPLANs), Concept Plans (CONPLANs), Sub-Unified Campaign Plans, and the theater targeting process. You will serve as a Key Personnel asset, acting as a primary bridge between JCC military leadership, subordinate components, US Pacific Command (USPACOM), United States Cyber Command (USCYBERCOM), and ROK military partners.

Responsibilties:

• Integrate offensive cyberspace operations into CFC and USFK’s OPLANs, CONPLANs, Sub-Unified Campaign Plans, and Joint Operations Plans (JOP). Identify and design tactical/operational courses of action (COAs) for deliberate and crisis action planning. • Facilitate and oversee the Commander’s end states, target development, target nomination, target approval processes, mission execution, and combat assessment of cyberspace operations. • Lead the development of USFK's Cyberspace Prioritization Effect List (CPEL), Joint Cyberspace Operations directives, and cyberspace tabs/appendices for major planning documents, focusing heavily on directed Northeast Asian threat groups and Malicious Cyberspace Actors (MCA). • Coordinate the de-confliction of cyberspace activities with other air, land, maritime, space, and kinetic/non-kinetic fires to avoid operational interference. • Synchronize the timing, tempo, and execution of cyberspace effects in close coordination with subordinate component command schemes of maneuver, fires, and operations. • Lead operational-level cyberspace synchronization with USPACOM, USCYBERCOM and its subordinate cyber components, and Joint Force Headquarters – Cyber (JFHQ-C). • Design, plan, coordinate, integrate, and conduct cyber fires exercises during CFC/USFK/UNC command post exercises (CPXs) to reinforce targeting integration and ensure staff and components understand combined cyber processes. • Utilize and incorporate Artificial Intelligence (AI) Common Operational Picture (COP) capabilities to geographically depict areas of effects, articulate timing/tempo, and layer cyberspace effects within a synchronized theater matrix. • Support CFC execution of the Combined Joint All-Domain Tasking Order (CJADTO) framework, actively participating in the Cyberspace Fires Effects Working Group (CFEWG), Technical Effects Working Group (TEWG), Joint Effects Working Group (JEWG), Joint Effects Validation Board (JEVB), and Operations/Intelligence Planning Board (OIPB).
