Overview

　　“It's incredible to be part of a company where we value the mission and where I feel valued as more than just an engineer. The scope of my job makes every day a dynamic blend of technical innovation and strategic decision-making with a team that aims to deliver nothing less than excellence. We're building more than software. We're building solutions that make a difference for the end-users we serve. It's both challenging and deeply rewarding.”

　　-- Mitchell, Senior Systems Engineer, Annapolis Junction MD

　　Our team is expanding to do the big things that have never been done before – the things the nation and the world are counting on us to deliver.

　　As a Senior Data Scientist with our Intel Division, you will develop machine learning, data mining, statistical and graph-based algorithms to analyze and make sense of datasets; prototype or consider several algorithms and decide upon final model based on suitable performance metrics; build models or develop experiments to generate data when training or example datasets are unavailable; generate reports and visualizations that summarize datasets and provide data-driven insights to customers; partner with subject matter experts to translate manual data analysis into automated analytics; implement prototype algorithms within production frameworks for integration into analyst workflows.

　　If that sounds like you and you’re ready to make an impact now, not later, read on for the details and apply to make the most of your career.

　　You’d like to do this

　　Produce data visualizations that provide insight into dataset structure and meaning

　　Work with subject matters experts (SMEs) to identify important information in raw data and develop scripts that extract this information from a variety of data formats (e.g., SQL tables, structured metadata, network logs)

　　Incorporate SME input into feature vectors suitable for analytic development and testing

　　Translate customer qualitative analysis process and goals into quantitative formulations that are coded into software prototypes

　　Develop and implement statistical, machine learning, and heuristic techniques to create descriptive, predictive, and prescriptive analytics

　　Develop statistical tests to make data-driven recommendations and decisions

　　Develop experiments to collect data or models to simulate data when required data are unavailable

　　Develop feature vectors for input into machine learning algorithms

　　Identify the most appropriate algorithm for a given dataset and tune input and model parameters

　　Evaluate and validate the performance of analytics using standard techniques and metrics (e.g. cross validation, ROC curves, confusion matrices)

　　Oversee the development of individual analytic efforts and guide team in analytic development process

　　Guide analytic development toward solutions that can scale to large datasets

　　Partner with software engineers and cloud developers to develop production analytics

　　Develop and train machine learning systems based on statistical analysis of data characteristics to support mission automation

　　Lead a team of data scientists in the development of multiple analytic efforts

　　Work with customers and SMEs to define analytic requirements and guide the team in formulating analytics that meet requirements

　　Guide the transition of prototyped analytics to production system

　　Understand emerging machine learning and pattern recognition algorithms and guide a team of data scientists in integrating state-of-the-art algorithms into solutions

　　Delegate analysis responsibilities to one or more team members and monitor performance

　　You’re required to have this

　　Bachelor's degree or higher from an accredited college or university in a quantitative discipline
