Leidos is seeking a Senior Data Scientist with TS/SCI clearance to join our dynamic team focused on advancing the state of the art in mission-focused big data analytics and predictive analytics. In this role, you will be responsible for delivering advanced data science capabilities that support national security objectives. Your work will involve swiftly producing and analyzing results, disseminating findings, and contributing to presentations that provide actionable intelligence insights. You will engage in projects that require designing, developing, and deploying data science and machine learning capabilities and products. This includes applying machine learning libraries such as SciKit Learn, Keras, TensorFlow, or PyTorch to develop and train machine learning models. Most of the work will be conducted on-site at our client location in Bethesda, MD, but we offer a flexible schedule, and some tasks may be performed remotely depending on client requirements and deliverables priorities. You will collaborate closely with a tight-knit team of data scientists, software developers, network engineers, senior investigators, program managers, researchers, and data analysts to design, build, and optimize a Data Science platform. Your projects will cover a variety of big data topics, including national security, cyber security, business intelligence, and human behavior. As a Senior Data Scientist, you will support multiple simultaneous projects, taking open-ended or high-level guidance to independently and collaboratively make discoveries that are mission-relevant. You will package and deliver your findings to a non-technical audience, leveraging your intellectual curiosity, quantitative acumen, and customer-focus to identify novel sources of data and improve the performance of predictive algorithms. Your strong background in research design, exploratory analysis, and quantitative methods will be essential in this role, as will your experience with customer outreach and engagement.
