Position Title: Data Scientist- Senior
Location: Redstone Arsenal
Position Type: Full-Time
Position Summary:
We are seeking a Senior Data Scientist to support complex scientific and technical efforts through the application of data science, statistics, modeling, and computational methods. This position will emphasize scientific problem-solving, research, modeling, and experimentation rather than traditional data visualization and business analytics.
Responsibilities:
Apply data science, statistical, and computational methods to complex scientific and technical problems.
Develop and validate statistical, predictive, and scientific models.
Analyze complex datasets to support research, experimentation, and technical decision-making.
Support modeling and simulation efforts and scientific research activities.
Develop data-driven methodologies and algorithms to address technical challenges.
Collaborate with scientists, engineers, analysts, and other technical personnel.
Document technical approaches, methodologies, findings, and results.
Provide technical guidance and mentorship to junior team members.
Qualifications:
Bachelor’s degree in Data Science, Computer Science, Mathematics, Statistics, Engineering, a physical science, or related field.
8+ years of relevant professional experience.
Active Top Secret security clearance.
Strong background in data science, statistics, scientific computing, modeling, or a related technical discipline.
Experience with Python, R, MATLAB, or similar programming and data science tools.
Strong analytical, technical, and problem-solving skills.
Ability to work independently and collaborate effectively within a technical team.
CULTURE REQUIREMENTS:
Engineers, Analysts, and Developers at Cintel , Inc. are highly motivated, technical, and self‐organized. We place a lot of trust in our team members to develop technical solutions for ill‐defined problems ( i.e. thrive in an environment where the problem is vague, requirements are lacking, and a solution is not obvious). We need problem solvers.
We want our team members to be self‐motivated and eager to learn new skills. If you consider yourself a jack‐of‐all‐trades, and are eager to keep up with the latest trends in technology, you’ll fit right in.
ABOUT CINTEL, INC:
Cintel Inc. is a Small Business providing strategies and services to support an array of Government clients in Software Development, Operational/Tactical and Installation/Facilities Energy, Cyber Security, Modeling and Simulation, Data Science, and Programmatic support.
