The LAIC AI Consulting Team’s mission includes serving as a center of excellence for AI at Lockheed Martin. The candidate will work to disseminate best practices of the AI Consulting Team to other AI and data science teams in the corporation. The candidate will be required to create knowledge materials to publish these best practices, as well as meet with other data science leaders in Lockheed Martin to teach and discuss these practices.

The responsibilities of this position include collaboration with business stakeholders to identify business opportunities and requirements to develop associated statistical models that deliver useful, actionable recommendations, or which augment human capabilities in various work settings. The candidate is responsible for modeling complex business and engineering problems, discovering insights and deploying AI capabilities using machine learning and associated feature engineering techniques. Responsibilities also include tracking projects and driving work on them through to completion, as well as implementing best technical practices from the fields of machine learning and software engineering.

The candidate will need a combination of business focus, creative thinking, strong analytical and problem solving skills, and programming knowledge to be able to quickly cycle hypotheses through the discovery phase of the project.
