Responsibilities
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.
Minimum Qualifications
Must be a U.S. citizen and have an active TS/SCI with CI poly.
