Job Number: R0230035
Data Scientist
The Opportunity:
As a data scientist, 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 artifi cia l intelligence. In an increasingly connected world, massive amounts of structured and unstructured data open new opportunities. As a data scientist at Booz Allen, you can help turn these complex data sets into useful information to solve global challenges.
On our team, you'll use your analytical skills and data science knowledge to create real-world impact. You'll work closely with your 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 develop algorithms and systems and use the right combination of tools and frameworks to turn sets of disparate data points into objective answers to help clients 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 use data science for good.
This role will evaluate complex organizational data in support of the Defense Policy Review Initiative Program. It involves curating, processing, and transforming large datasets to ensure they are accurate, consistent, and suitable for program-wide analysis and decision-making. This person will independently apply the full data curation lifecycle, including assessment, cleaning, storage structuring, and optimization to enhance long-term usability. The position requires advanced data quality improvements and the development of innovative techniques to maximize the value of critical program data. You will independently work extensively with artifi cia l intelligence technologies, including large language models, agent-based systems, and generative artifi cia l intelligence applications. You will develop solutions using Python and modern data platforms to refine and improve complex datasets. The role also involves supporting strategies for preparing, aligning, and leveraging large program datasets to enable accurate insights and informed policy deliberations.
