Data Scientist 3

Job Description: We are seeking a Data Scientist to apply professional knowledge of computer science, mathematical and statistical theories, techniques, and methods to gather, analyze, design, and construct new processes for modeling and interpreting trends, relationships, and correlations within data sets. You will be responsible for delivering data visualizations, analytics, and processing capabilities to support our data-driven decision-making. Your expertise will help uncover insights and drive innovation across our projects. The Level 3 Data Scientist shall possess the following capabilities: Foundations: (Mathematical, Computational, Statistical) Data Processing: (Data management and curation, data description and visualization, workflow and reproducibility) Modeling, Inference, and Prediction: (Data modeling and assessment, domain-specific considerations) Devise strategies for extracting meaning and value from large datasets. Make and communicate principled conclusions from data using elements of mathematics, statistics, computer science, and application specific knowledge. Through analytic modeling, statistical analysis, programming, and/or another appropriate scientific method, develop and implement qualitative and quantitative methods for characterizing, exploring, and assessing large datasets in various states of organization, cleanliness, and structure that account for the unique features and limitations inherent in government data holdings. Translate practical mission needs and analytic questions related to large datasets into technical requirements and, conversely, assist others with drawing appropriate conclusions from the analysis of such data. Effectively communicate complex technical information to non-technical audiences. Make informed recommendations regarding competing technical solutions by maintaining awareness of the constantly shifting government collection, processing, storage and analytic capabilities and limitations. Qualifications: Master's Degree with 8 years of relevant experience Bachelor's Degree with 10 years of relevant experience Associates degree with 12 years of relevant experience Bachelor's Degree must be in Mathematics, Applied Mathematics, Statistics, Applied Statistics, Machine Learning, Data Science, Operations Research, or Computer Science or a degree in a related field (Computer Information Systems, Engineering), a degree in the physical/hard sciences (e.g. physics, chemistry, biology, astronomy), or other science disciplines with a substantial computational component (i.e. behavioral, social, or life) may be considered if it included a concentration of coursework (5 or more courses) in advanced Mathematics (typically 300 level or higher, such as linear algebra, probability and statistics, machine learning) and/or computer science (e.g. algorithms, programming, data structures, data mining, artificial intelligence). College-level requirement, or upper-level math courses designated as elementary or basic do not count. Note: A broader range of degrees will be considered if accompanied by a Certificate in Data Science from an accredited college/university. Relevant experience must be in designing/implementing machine learning, data science, advanced analytical algorithms, programming (skill in at least one high-level language, e.g., Python), statistical analysis (e.g. variability, sampling error, inference, hypothesis testing, EDA, application of linear models), data management (e.g. data cleaning and transformation), data mining, data modeling and assessment, artificial intelligence, and/or software engineering. Experience in more than one area is strongly preferred. Position requires ACTIVE TS/SCI FSP Clearance.
