It’s a Data Scientist role that supports a forward-leaning defense intelligence program focused on enhancing analytic rigor, efficiency, and predictive capability across a broad mission set. Responsibilities Work in tandem with analysts to figure out methods to solve 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). 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. Minimum Qualifications U.S. citizen with an active TS/SCI clearance and CI poly. 3 years of experience and a related Bachelor’s degree. Demonstrated experience with Python, R, and SQL, including programmatic access to web services, data management, and visualization.

Preferred Qualifications Polished oral and written communication skills sufficient to compose, tailor, and deliver original presentations and papers on abstract concepts. Familiarity with graph databases or graph data structures. Ability to lead multi‑disciplinary teams to complete complex data science projects. Experience with AWS or similar cloud provider. Demonstrated experience in solving problems with structured and unstructured data. Experienced in applying statistical and data visualization skills. Strong problem‑solving skills to manipulate data and draw insights from large data sets. Proven ability to learn and master new software, technologies and techniques. Familiarity with generative AI and large language models (LLMs) and their strengths and weaknesses when applied to intelligence requirements. Experience in two or more of the following: Machine Learning, Natural Language Processing, Apache Spark, Hadoop, R, C++, SQL Database/Coding, or visualization tools such as Tableau.
