  • Perform exploratory data analysis, feature engineering, model development, validation, and performance evaluation.
  • Analyze structured and unstructured data from multiple public, non-public, commercial, financial, and government data sources.
  • Collaborate with Data Engineers to prepare and optimize data for analytics.
  • Support entity resolution, anomaly detection, predictive analytics, and risk scoring initiatives.
  • Produce dashboards, reports, visualizations, and analytical products that support investigative decision-making.
  • Document analytical methodologies, assumptions, validation results, and technical findings.
  • Participate in Agile delivery activities including sprint planning, demonstrations, peer reviews, and iterative model development.

  • Experience analyzing structured and unstructured datasets.
  • Experience documenting analytical methodologies and technical findings.
  • Strong analytical reasoning and problem-solving skills.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills.

Preferred Qualifications
Preference will be given to candidates with experience in one or more of the following:
  • Fraud detection, fraud prevention, financial crime analytics, or program integrity.
  • Federal benefit programs, grants, loans, healthcare, unemployment insurance, emergency assistance, disaster relief, or other public-sector programs.
  • Risk modeling, anomaly detection, entity resolution, predictive analytics, and statistical modeling.
  • Cloud analytics environments such as Azure Databricks, Microsoft SQL Server, Microsoft Fabric, Azure Data Lake Storage (ADLS), Power BI, Git repositories, or Lakehouse architectures.
  • Working with public, non-public, commercial, financial, or cross-agency datasets.
  • Data visualization and dashboard development.
  • Agile software development and analytics teams.
  • Enterprise data governance, metadata management, and data quality best practices.

What We're Looking For
We're looking for curious, collaborative data scientists who enjoy using data to solve challenging fraud detection problems. The ideal candidate combines strong analytical skills with a passion for supporting government oversight and investigative missions through innovative, data-driven solutions.
What you can expect from us:
  • Real opportunity for career growth in an environment where your achievements will be celebrated
  • Constant collaboration with numerous teams to ensure client success
  • A team that respects and embraces your ideas and expertise
