  • Create and support the implementation of AI/ML algorithms and automated analytic systems that strengthen JIOC intelligence capabilities.
  • Conduct exploratory data analysis (EDA) across internal and external sources to inform intelligence production.
  • Build automated data integration, transformation, and conditioning pipelines to support all-source analysis.
  • Collaborate closely with analysts and computer scientists to design and implement new data workflows, tools, and processes.
  • Create scripts, algorithms, and automated tools to reduce manual workloads and enhance analytical throughput.
  • Improve overall data quality, discoverability, and search capability, enhancing predictive modeling and operational analysis.
  • Apply experimental design principles to test hypotheses and improve intelligence production processes.
  • Assess existing data capabilities and recommend analytical, architectural, or process improvements for the intelligence enterprise.
  • Work hand-in-hand with intelligence analysts and operators to define operational data requirements and develop mission-relevant data solutions.
