About the Role

At Lockheed Martin, we solve complex challenges and keep people safe. We are seeking engineers, scientists, and problem-solvers who are ready to engage deeply, think critically, and build with purpose. This is where the best are built.

Key Responsibilities

• Leverage and create AI solutions to optimize production, elevate quality, and enable predictive modeling.
• Conduct exploratory research and statistical analysis to uncover meaningful patterns and latent predictive factors.
• Develop, test, and validate predictive models and algorithms using machine-learning, deep-learning, and optimization techniques.
• Design and implement scalable computing solutions (GPU, distributed, cloud) for large-scale data processing.
• Create clear visualizations and actionable recommendations to support decision-making.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to translate analytical insights into product and process improvements.
• Perform exploratory research and analysis to identify novel and meaningful patterns in data and uses statistical methods to reject or accept proposed hypotheses.
• Use a combination of tools, technologies, and numerical computing systems (i.e.: GPU processing, distributed computing, highly parallel coding, cloud computing, machine learning, visualization, system modelling and simulation) to achieve results.
• Work on datasets with applied statistics and machine learning algorithms.
• Use exploratory data analysis techniques to identify meaningful relationships, patterns, or trends from complex data sets and discover opportunities.
• Develop predictive models and new algorithms to solve data/business problems.
• Understand the math and statistics behind the models and interpret, extrapolate, and prescribe from data to deliver actionable recommendations using effective visualizations.
