What is the difference between Algorithmic Engineer vs Data Scientist?

AspectAlgorithmic EngineerData Scientist
Required CredentialsBachelor's or Master's in Computer Science, Engineering, or related fields; programming skillsBachelor's or Master's in Data Science, Statistics, or related fields; strong analytical skills
Work EnvironmentDevelops algorithms for software, hardware, or embedded systems; often in tech or finance industriesAnalyzes data to extract insights; works in tech, finance, healthcare, and more
Employer & Industry UsageTech companies, finance firms, R&D departmentsTech companies, consulting firms, research institutions

While both roles require strong programming and analytical skills, Algorithmic Engineers focus on designing and implementing algorithms for systems and applications, whereas Data Scientists analyze data to inform business decisions. The roles often overlap in tech environments but serve different primary functions.

Job description

Apogee Research is at the forefront of a revolution in how the DoD operates: a turn towards compositional systems of systems instead of traditional monolithic architectures. This change is driven by a need for faster adaptation to adversarial environments, which requires the ability to field resilient, distributed systems in days to weeks rather than months to years. To create composable systems that operate resiliently at scale in contested and resource constrained environments, we combine custom software toolchains with feedback control to dynamically adjust to ever changing environments.

We currently have openings for algorithm engineers to design, implement, and validate new algorithms across multiple domains including networking, distributed data fusion and resource management, distributed electronic warfare, and distributed Command and Control (C2). Understanding of probability and statistics is required, experience with control systems is desired. Demonstrated understanding of how to characterize the open-loop and close-loop stability of nonlinear systems via analysis, simulation, and experimentation is a strong plus.

Qualified candidates should have a mix of academic theory and real-world applications of relevant algorithms, combined with a track record of applying research techniques to real-world problems. This is not an entry level position and real-world experience is required. While this role is not primarily a software development role, some software development experience is strongly preferred.

The position is located in our Arlington, VA office. Existing DoD Top Secret clearance is strongly preferred, otherwise all candidates must be eligible to obtain one and therefore all candidates must be a US citizen to apply.
