About The Position

SURVICE Engineering is currently seeking a Computational Data Scientist to support our Aberdeen Research Operation. You will accelerate your career and become an integral team member within the defense community. This role involves carrying out forward-looking programs of materials research and process modeling leveraging data science methodologies and tools including artificial intelligence, machine learning (ML), probabilistic graph models, neural networks, or other emergent techniques. You will work with a multidisciplinary team of ARL experimental, theoretical, and computational scientists through decision making aids such as visual analytics and human-in-the-loop strategies to improve scientific efficiency and impact. The position requires applying learning algorithms on high-dimensional, complex and/or streaming data sets with limited labels and of diverse quality for smart decision making. You will also be involved in data processing of heterogeneous types from numeric, digital objects, images, structured to unstructured from data capture, data integration, data cleaning to data management. Additionally, you will interface with data scientists in academic, industrial and government labs to identify and transition cutting edge tools for use at ARL, and work with outside partners to fill critical gaps in skills and capabilities. Preparing presentations and written documents summarizing efforts in Government format is also a key responsibility.

Requirements

Masters of Science or PhD in Computer Science or Math related discipline and 3+ years of relevant experience.
MS or PhD concentration in machine learning with at least three (3) independent projects including internships and thesis work OR minimum of five (5) years of dedicated experience with machine learning.
Practical experience in applying data science to model complex real-world problems.
Proficient in using Python and AI/ML models.
Experience in communicating results through reports and presentations.
Active Clearance or Eligible to Obtain - U.S. citizenship required
