Why This Role Matters

• Centrally manage distributed data support teams across SOF organizations at HQ echelon. Set the technical bar, mentor analysts, define team operating rhythms.
• Serve as the primary technical interface between the contractor team leadership. Brief findings to GO/FO mission owners.
• Translate operational mission questions into rigorous analytical work — frame the problem, lead the analytical team, deliver the readout.
• Drive integration of data, analytics, and AI capabilities — partner with the Data Operations Technical Lead, AI/ML engineers, and AI Product Managers to move models from notebook to production.
• Support the SOF Enterprise's adoption of integrated governance standards; align data and analytics products with SOCOM security and data strategies.
• Recruit, mentor, and retain a distributed analytics team across multiple SOF organizations.
Must Have
• Active TS with SCI eligibility.
• 5+ years working in SOF analytical support roles.
• 3+ years centrally managing distributed data support teams at SOF HQ echelon.
• 3+ years experience with SOF digital capabilities.
• 3+ years experience across SOF HQ elements, SOF Service Component HQs, AND SOF Theater Special Operations Commands (TSOCs).
• Strong Python and SQL fluency; comfortable with modern ML frameworks (PyTorch, scikit-learn, or equivalent).
• Demonstrable ability to communicate complex technical work to senior non-technical stakeholders.
Nice to Have
• Graduate degree in a quantitative field (Statistics, Operations Research, Computer Science, Applied Math, Data Science).
• Prior employment as a senior leader at Clarity Innovations, Raft, Booz Allen Hamilton SOCOM, Leidos SOCOM, SAIC, Palantir, Govini, LEVELUP, or a similar cleared-defense data firm.
• Government employment history at USSOCOM J2/J5/J8, JAIC, CDAO, or as a uniformed senior SOF officer (O-4 to O-6 retired).
• Located in Macill AFB
• Published or presented work in data science / operations research / mission analytics.
Not a Fit If
• Currently employed by the U.S. Government (Government civilians and active military are off-limits for this role).
