We're hiring multiple Data Scientists to join our team. In this position you will use your expertise to support the research, development, and implementation of advanced analytical methodologies and techniques that leverage artificial intelligence, machine learning, and data science approaches. Data Scientists will support a forward-leaning defense intelligence program focused on enhancing analytic rigor, efficiency, and predictive capability across a broad mission set. This includes support to Object-Based Intelligence (OBI) production, structured analytic method augmentation, and automation of analytic workflows. Data Scientists will collaborate with analysts, methodologists, and technologists to research, develop, and implement advanced methodologies that leverage artificial intelligence, machine learning, and statistical modeling to solve complex intelligence problems.
Responsibilities: A day in the life/What the position will be doing:
Work in tandem with analysts to figure out methods to solve their challenges with complex data sets, pattern identification, and visualizations.
Perform research and implement forward-looking analytic methodologies that leverage statistical techniques and pattern recognition.
Assist analysts in developing structured approaches to predictive intelligence that increase timeliness and accuracy of assessments.
Expand existing Natural Language Processing (NLP) to include new entities and improved visualization.
Research and implement approaches that enhance analytical tradecraft (support critical thinking, mitigate biases, increase analytic rigor).
Research and implement advanced analytic methodologies that enhance tradecraft, mitigate bias, and improve analytic efficiency.
Support the automation of structured analytic methods and workflows to increase repeatability and scalability of intelligence production.
Contribute to the development and integration of semantic technologies, including ontologies and knowledge graphs, to support OBI standards.
Design and build visualizations and dashboards that communicate complex data insights to technical and non-technical audiences.
Evaluate and optimize analytic performance using qualitative and quantitative metrics.
