Jonathan Holifield

Jonathan Holifield is an independent intelligence analyst specializing in systems-based analysis of geopolitical and strategic events.

His work centers on structured, evidence-based assessments derived from open-source intelligence (OSINT), with an emphasis on causation, enforcement dynamics, and long-range modeling. His analysis focuses on forward risk conditions and escalation patterns that have, in multiple instances, subsequently materialized in active conflict environments.

Through Caerfaisn, he develops controlled intelligence products tailored to specific operational contexts. These include Post-Operation Strategic Assessments (POSAs), conflict tracking frameworks, and other structured analytical outputs designed for organizations requiring disciplined, non-narrative-driven insight.

His professional background includes over a decade in project management within the AEC sector, with a focus on complex systems coordination, failure analysis, and operational recovery.

His work emphasizes analytical discipline, structural clarity, and independence from media or ideological framing.
