Data Scientist, Mid
The Opportunity:
As an analytics professional, you’re excited at the prospect of unlocking the secrets held by a data set, and you’re fascinated by the possibilities presented by IoT, machine learning, and artificial intelligence. If you care about moving a mission forward as much as advancing the field of data science, this is the opportunity for you. Your data science and analytics knowledge and consulting expertise, coupled with an original approach to your work, will help clients and stakeholders make sense of their data and encourage actionable results. We’re looking for someone like you to steer complex data exploration and analytics projects through your experience with programming languages, including SQL, R, or Python, data architecture, and operationalizing models for our national security and defense clients.
As an advanced data scientist and researcher on our national security team, you’ll use your leadership skills and data science expertise to create real-world impact. You’ll work closely with DoD and IC clients to understand their questions and needs, and then dig into their data-rich environments to find the pieces of their information puzzle. You’ll guide teammates and lead the development of algorithms and systems. You’ll use the right combination of tools and frameworks to turn sets of disparate data points into objective answers to advise your clients as they make informed decisions. Ultimately, you’ll provide a deep understanding of the data, what it all means, and how it can be used.
Join us. The world can’t wait.
