Machine Learning Research Engineer

The Opportunity:

As a Machine Learning (ML) Research Engineer, you're excited at the prospect of building algorithms that leverage data to address critical problems never before solvable by computer. 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, and you're ready to take on the challenges of using this data to build decision making systems that can handle the uncertainty and complexity of the real world. As an ML research engineer at Booz Allen, you can help turn these complex data sets into useful algorithms to solve global challenges. Across private and public sectors we need you to help turn data into informed decision making.

On our team, you'll use your analytical skills, domain knowledge, and artificial intelligence expertise to create real-world impact. You'll work closely with your clients to understand their questions and needs, and then dig into their environments and workflows to find the pieces of their information puzzle. You'll develop systems and use the right combination of tools and frameworks to turn sets of disparate data points into useful algorithms to help clients make informed decisions and build cutting-edge systems.

Work with us as we use data science and artificial intelligence for good.
