The Opportunity:

As an operations research analyst, you’re passionate about exploring the root cause of an issue and then analyzing, reporting, and developing recommendations for a creative solution. We need an experienced research analyst like you to help us solve complex problems for our clients. On our analysis and plans team, you’ll evaluate data assessment strategies such as mathematical and statistical modeling, data analysis, and decision support analytics processes, to deliver solutions.

You won’t go at it alone, you’ll work alongside our robust team and industry experts to conduct research, prepare graphs and charts, and analyze and interpret military programmatic or cost data using cost and benefit analyses, what-if analyses, optimization, and economic modeling. Once documented, you’ll develop working documents and presentations, including descriptive language and graphs, to present results, collaborate with stakeholders, and participate in various program meetings to improve program efficiency.

In this role, you’ll use your passion for analytics and statistics to devise modeling and measuring techniques using mathematics, statistical methods, engineering methods, and operational mathematics techniques such as probability models, statistical inference, simulations, and optimization, along with other principles and laws of scientific and economic disciplines.
