Data Scientist with Security Clearance

Description: As a Data Scientist, you will be driven by an interest in solving complex business and immigration problems through data exploration and analysis. You must be highly analytically minded, have a robust technical tool kit, and experience leading research studies. The Data Scientist will be responsible for executing all steps in the modeling and research process to produce high quality, reproducible results. They will work with immigration experts and data engineers to support the development of processes and technologies that solve immigration problems. The Data Scientist should be an expert in data science, statistics, and mathematical methods to solve these problems. These models will drive innovative solutions that bring value and direction to DHS situations. Candidates will be able to thoroughly define a problem statement that addresses the requirements, develop an algorithmic approach to solving the problem, and then execute data and algorithmic refinement to create a model. Required Skills Demonstrated experience with ECL and HPCC. Demonstrated experience using analytic techniques and tools performing technical targeting analytic support for the Sponsor. Demonstrated experience manipulating high-volume structured and unstructured data to perform analysis and generate reporting/products. Demonstrated experience using computer languages (e.g., Python, R, Pig, Java, C, SQL) to perform large scale parallel processing of data. Demonstrated experience performing large scale parallel processing of data, and developing, validating, and using methodologies to support analytic requirements in Clustered Computing environments. Desired Skills Educational or practical experience in a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering or Mathematics) field.
