CACI is seeking Data Scientists at the Journeyman and Senior levels to support a mission-focused program delivering analytical, advisory, and operational capabilities across geographic and functional Combatant Commands. In this role, you will apply data science, statistical analysis, automation, and emerging technologies to complex operational challenges within the information environment and irregular warfare (IW) mission space. You will work with diverse datasets to identify trends, develop analytical models, measure operational effects, and transform complex information into actionable insights for mission partners and senior decision-makers. This is an opportunity to combine technical data science expertise with real-world national security missions, working alongside intelligence, operations, research, and technology professionals to help address evolving global threats. Responsibilities * Analyze large, complex, and diverse datasets to establish baselines, identify patterns and trends, develop indicators, and support operational decision-making. * Develop and automate analytic workflows using Python, R, and related data science tools to accelerate data discovery, processing, and analysis. * Apply statistical and quantitative techniques including regression, hypothesis testing, sampling, longitudinal analysis, network analysis, modeling, and reliability/validity assessment. * Develop prototypes, scripts, and analytical tools that improve data collection, processing, integration, visualization, and synthesis. * Apply AI/ML and Natural Language Processing (NLP) techniques to structured and unstructured data, including text, survey responses, social media, and operational reporting. * Conduct qualitative and mixed-methods analysis using techniques such as thematic coding, classification, sentiment analysis, and NLP-assisted analysis. * Develop dashboards, visualizations, and analytical products that communicate complex findings to operational leaders and mission stakeholders. * Integrate analytical findings with intelligence and operational reporting to establish baselines, measure effects, identify emerging trends, and assess OIE/IW activities. * Manage and optimize analytical datasets, databases, metadata, and longitudinal data to support repeatable analysis and research. * Apply geospatial analysis and visualization techniques to assess information environment dynamics, geographic patterns, and audience characteristics. * Leverage social media and publicly available data using automated collection, analytics, AI/ML, and NLP techniques to evaluate reach, behavior, trends, and operational effects. * Support research and assessment design by developing analytical methodologies, data collection strategies, assessment criteria, and measures of performance and effectiveness. * Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams across intelligence, operations, technology, and research functions to translate mission requirements into data-driven analytical solutions. ## Related Videos - [Python Data Visualization @ Deepnote (w/ PyViz overview)](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/113-python-data-visualization-deepnote-w-pyviz-overview) - [Beyond Dashboards: Fixing Text-to-SQL with Semantic RAG](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/2036-beyond-dashboards-fixing-text-to-sql-with-semantic-rag) - [Cyber Sleuth: Finding Hidden Connections in Cyber Data](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/893-cyber-sleuth-finding-hidden-connections-in-cyber-data) - [Data Science, ML & AI in the Oil and Gas Industry at NDT Global - Dr. Katja Träumner](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1308-data-science-ml-ai-in-the-oil-and-gas-industry-at-ndt-global-dr-katja-traumner) - [Solving the puzzle: Leveraging machine learning for effective root cause analysis](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1518-solving-the-puzzle-leveraging-machine-learning-for-effective-root-cause-analysis) - [REST, GraphQL, gRPC, and more: A comparison of modern API styles](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100247-rest-graphql-grpc-and-more-a-comparison-of-modern-api-styles) ## Related Articles - [Highest Paying Tech Companies for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/220-highest-paying-tech-companies-for-developers) - [Coffee with Developers - Maria Apazoglou - Making AI understandable for all in production](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/475-coffee-with-developers-maria-apazoglou-making-ai-understandable-for-all-in-production) - [Data Analyst Salary in the UK](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/278-data-analyst-salary-in-the-uk) - [Best Coding Boot Camps in Germany](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/237-best-coding-boot-camps-in-germany) - [Top Big Data Technologies That You Need to Know](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/108-top-big-data-technologies-that-you-need-to-know) - [The Most Popular IT Jobs on the Market](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/376-the-most-popular-it-jobs-on-the-market)
