Be at the cutting edge of transforming national security analysis with artificial intelligence! We're seeking a visionary AI Analyst to spearhead the integration of AI capabilities, including revolutionary large language models (LLMs), across multi-disciplinary national security challenges. As a trailblazer in the Operations and Program Analysis Group (JOP) within the National Security Analysis Department (NSAD), you'll transform analytical studies by fusing AI-driven insights with physics-based modeling, gaming techniques, case studies, and operational analyses. In this role, you'll take the lead in developing groundbreaking generative artificial intelligence capabilities that harness the power of large language models and other related technologies to rapidly improve our analyses through shortened timelines and larger sponsor impacts. This innovative technology will reshape the way we approach national security analyses, allowing us to anticipate and prepare for emerging challenges like never before. As an Artificial Intelligence (AI) Analyst, you'll have the opportunity to drive innovation in AI applications, collaborate with renowned experts in AI, operations research, and national security, develop and refine AI-enabled tools and methodologies, and stay at the forefront of AI advancements.

  • Assisting in the development of NSAD's proficiency, working with and refining large language models across several domains.
  • Applying AI-enabled capabilities more broadly to NSAD analyses, including those focused on the tactical and operational use of existing and new systems and programs to support the warfighter at the Department of Defense (DoD), Services, and Combatant Commands.
  • Assisting in developing and applying AI-enabled capabilities across the APL enterprise that bring a strategic or integrative capability to complement or enhance other APL capabilities.
  • Playing an active role in developing ideas to expand NSAD's application of AI and generative AI capabilities to analyses.
  • Developing and maintaining effective working relationships across NSAD and the Laboratory.
  • Have at least a Bachelor's degree in computer science, data science, mathematics, or another related analytic subject area.
  • Have proven, relevant experience with generative artificial intelligence applications.
  • Are skilled in data pre-processing and how to handle imbalanced datasets.
  • Are proficient in programming languages commonly used in AI and natural language processing (NLP), such as Python; experience with associated libraries and frameworks such as TensorFlow, PyTorch, etc.
  • Have a curiosity and passion for staying up-to-date with the latest research advancements in AI and how they may apply to relevant problem sets.
  • Are able to apply state-of-the-art techniques to solve practical problems.
  • Demonstrate ability to effectively interact and collaborate with a multi-disciplinary team.
  • Have excellent verbal and written communications skills.
  • Are willing and able to travel an estimated one or more trips per month within the Washington DC/Baltimore metropolitan area.
  • Are able to obtain an Interim Secret level security clearance by your start date and can ultimately obtain a TS/SCI level clearance.
  • Have a Master's degree, Ph.D., or equivalent in computer science, data science, mathematics, or another related analytic subject area.
  • Have experience fine tuning pre-trained language models, adapting them to specific domains, and the ability to design rigorous evaluation protocols and conduct model evaluation experiments.
  • Have a strong understanding of machine learning and deep learning architectures, including transformer models, recurrent neural networks, and convolutional neural networks; proficiency in machine learning algorithms and optimization techniques.
  • Have experience in the analysis of tactical and operational employment of military systems that affect DoD program development.
  • Have in-depth knowledge of NLP concepts and techniques, and experience with NLP tasks such as classification, named entity recognition, sentiment analysis, and text generation.
  • Generous benefits including a robust education assistance program.
  • Unparalleled retirement contributions.
  • Healthy work/life balance.
  • Comprehensive benefits package including retirement plans, paid time off, medical, dental, vision, life insurance, short-term disability, long-term disability, flexible spending accounts, education assistance, and training and development.
