OPERATIONS RESEARCH ANALYST
As an OPERATIONS RESEARCH ANALYST you will be responsible for the following duties:
Directing and conducting analysis of research results and data using advanced statistical techniques. Recommending statistical methods based on a wide variety of possible approaches, and a range of established methods. Developing formal technical reports on the validity and technical accuracy of all data analytic models sponsored by DVD. Recommending additions or modifications to existing hardware and software to both AAG's research environment and the National Background Investigation System (NBIS) program office. This position has a Basic Requirement for the 1515 Basic Requirements:
Degree:
in operations research; or at least 24 semester hours in a combination of operations research, mathematics, probability, statistics, mathematical logic, science, or subject-matter courses requiring substantial competence in college-level mathematics or statistics. At least 3 of the 24 semester hours must have been in calculus. Evaluation of Education:
The primary requirement of operations research work is competence in the rigorous methods of scientific inquiry and analysis rather than in the subject matter of the problem. Therefore, applicants should have sufficient knowledge of applied mathematics to understand and use the fundamental concepts and techniques of operations research methods of analysis. In addition, some positions may require knowledge of a specific subject area. Courses acceptable for qualifying for operations research positions may have been taken in departments other than Operations Research, e.g., Engineering (usually Industrial Engineering), Science, Economics, Mathematics, Statistics, or Management Science. The following are illustrative of acceptable courses:
optimization; mathematical modeling; queueing theory; engineering; physics (except descriptive or survey courses); econometrics; psychometrics; biometrics; experimental psychology; physical chemistry; industrial process analysis; managerial economics; computer science; measurement for management; mathematical models in social phenomena; and courses that involved application of operations research techniques and methodologies to problems of management, marketing, systems design, and other specialized fields; or other comparable quantitative analysis courses for which college-level mathematics or statistics is a prerequisite. Courses in theory of probability and statistics are highly desirable, but are not specified as minimum educational requirements because to do so would possibly exclude some applicants who would otherwise be well qualified. NOTE:
Failure to provide transcripts will result in you being rated ineligible for this position. The experience described in your resume will be evaluated and screened from the Office of Personnel Management's (OPMs) basic qualifications requirements. See:
https:
//www.opm.gov/policy-data-oversight/classification-qualifications/general-schedule-qualification-standards/1500/operations-research-series-1515/ for OPM qualification standards, competencies and specialized experience needed to perform the duties of the position as described in the MAJOR DUTIES and QUALIFICATIONS sections of this announcement by 08/05/2019 Applicant must have directly applicable experience that demonstrates the possession of the knowledge, skills, abilities and competencies necessary for immediate success in the position. Qualifying experience may have been acquired in any public or private sector job, and will typically be demonstrated by working at, or immediately below the level of the job being advertised, for a year or more. The previous work experience must clearly demonstrate the application of the particular competencies/knowledge, skills, and abilities necessary to successfully perform the duties of the position. Specialized experience required for this position is:
Knowledge of the principles, theories, and concepts of statistics (e.g., sample design and techniques, Linear/Integer Programming, Stochastic Processes, Design of Experiments, and other statistical analysis techniques). Applying complex modeling techniques to determine statistical associations. Utilizing statistical analysis techniques to real world business problems. Conducting statistical surveys, to include but not limited to survey design data collections, processing, compilation, computation, editing, presenting of statistical data and formal report of findings. Specifically you will be evaluated on the following competencies:
