Data Scientist and Pipeline Integrator

The Opportunity:

As a data scientist, you’re excited at the prospect of unlocking the secrets held by a data set, and you’re fascinated by the possibilities presented by IoT, machine learning, and artificial intelligence. In an increasingly connected world, massive amounts of structured and unstructured data open new opportunities. As a data scientist at Booz Allen, you can turn these complex data sets into useful information to solve global challenges. Across private and public sectors—from fraud detection to cancer research to national intelligence—we need a seasoned data scientist like you to help find the answers in the data.

We are seeking a highly motivated Data Scientist with Palantir experience to join our team and drive impactful, data-driven decision-making across the organization, overcoming the challenge of complex, messy data.  You will conduct exploratory data analysis (EDA) to plan, build, and maintain data pipeline integration in Foundry, generating actionable insights, and overcoming data quality issues that influence outcomes.  Import and sync to various data sources, clean and standardize data elements, and fix data quality issues. Use code authoring tools to make data accessible so clients can use it to evaluate and optimize policy.  Build processes for users and data owners to interact with their data “in platform” using a variety of technologies.  Develop innovative solutions for complex data-driven problems, in coordination with a knowledge management team.  Implement effective low-code/no-code projects, workflow automation, and technical integration to help Military Service stakeholders solve their process and executive reporting challenges. 

At Booz Allen, you'll be at the forefront of using Palantir Foundry’s advanced platforms to tackle high-impact, mission-critical problems. Build clear, compelling, and effective data visualizations that communicate findings to both technical and non-technical stakeholders, generating insights that are accessible and actionable. Close collaboration with engineers, analysts, and mission stakeholders will enable you to develop a deep understanding of their data.  Advise Service clients on what their information means and how it can be used to generate decisions with strategic impact. In this role, you’ll directly impact Army strategic investments by building transformative solutions essential to designing and managing data initiatives to best overcome Army technology challenges.
