- Use Python, SQL, and other programming languages to manipulate, analyze, and transform datasets and automate analytical processes.
- Perform ad hoc audit and investigative data-analysis requests and communicate findings in written and verbal formats.
- Prepare comprehensive reports addressing data adequacy and quality, methodologies, assumptions, results, findings, recommendations, and the relevance of the issues under review.
- Document data sources, methodologies, model assumptions, analytical workflows, code, data pipelines, and models to ensure transparency, reproducibility, and continuity.
- Provide training to staff on all work products developed, including preparing user guides, manuals, technical documentation, and other knowledge-transfer materials.
- Monitor, maintain, and update analytical models, scripts, and data workflows as technologies, data sources, and mission requirements evolve.
