Data Scientist

Type: Regular Full-Time
Category: Data Science

Location:

  1. Chantilly, VA - Chantilly, VA 20151 United States

Overview

As a Data Scientist, you will have the unique opportunity to work on a program developing target models and advancing state-of-the-art modeling and prediction capabilities. This program will develop and train machine learning models to detect and discern features in scenes and develop an adversarial patch framework to defeat the trained classifiers.

Our delivery teams are driven to explore new ideas and technology, and care deeply about collaboration, feedback, and iteration. We follow SAFe agile practices, embrace the Ops ethos(DataOps/DevSecOps/MLOps) to “automate-first”, use modern tech stacks, and constantly challenge each other to grow and improve.

If cutting edge data science projects resonate with you and you care deeply about joining a mission-driven company with a strong growth direction and diverse culture, we'd love to learn more about you. Check out the details below, and let’s connect.

Responsibilities

Technical members of our solutions teams require little guidance, but love to learn, collaborate, and problem solve. This position requires a mid to senior level of experience, a passion for mission support, and a strong desire to solve our customers’ hardest technical and data challenges.

The Data Scientist will be responsible for the following:

  • Develop, train and evaluate Machine Learning models

    • Relationships and discovery (correlating, enriching, and prioritizing target data)
    • Situational awareness (unifying data into a single context, allowing the current situation to be accurately and quickly understood)
    • Systems modeling (building a computational analog of real-world-system to understand how it operates, what it is capable of, and how it can be fooled)
  • Experience with Synthetic Aperture Radar data strongly preferred

We're looking for a motivated Data Scientist eager to advance not only your professional career, but also the missions of our Intelligence and Defense communities. At NT Concepts, you'll be able to:

  • Meaningfully impact the company's growth, and share in the rewards accordingly
