  • 4+ years of professional proficiency using R or Python for data wrangling and model development, along with experience using SQL or Spark SQL, database design concepts, and cloud platforms such as AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud.

  • Demonstrated proficiency in statistical analysis, data visualization, data quality assurance, data management, and the development and documentation of analytical models, algorithms, methodologies, and processes.

  • Ability to collaborate with stakeholders, translate requirements into data science solutions, provide technical guidance, and communicate complex analytical concepts clearly to technical and non-technical audiences.

  • Strong organizational and project-management skills, with the ability to manage multiple priorities accurately and on schedule; must be local to the Vienna, VA area and able to work on-site three or more days per week, with hybrid opportunities at the supervisor’s discretion.
