Machine Learning Engineer

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 deep data science expertise and consulting mindset, 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 lead complex data exploration and analytics projects through your experience with programming languages, such as SQL, R, or Python, operationalizing models, containerization, data architecture, and cloud computing platforms for the defense sector.
The defense sector is looking for individuals with exceptional mathematical modeling backgrounds who have done outstanding work utilizing tools, such as AI/ML and other state of the art algorithms. We're leading efforts related to optimization of logistics planning and we're looking for someone to bring expertise or interest in operations research related optimization problems. We work on problem sets more broadly that involve Natural Language Processing and text analysis, so you will be exposed to a wide variety of modeling aspects—we are looking for someone who is creative and excited about solving problems from a variety of angles!
You’ll work closely with 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.
Work with us as we shape systems for the better.
