As an Artificial Intelligence (AI) Analyst, you will be responsible for :

  • Assisting in the development of NSAD's proficiency, working with and refining large language models across several domains.
  • Applying AI-enabled capabilities more broadly to NSAD analyses, including those focused on the tactical and operational use of existing and new systems and programs to support the warfighter at the Department of Defense (DoD), Services, and Combatant Commands.
  • Assisting in developing and applying AI-enabled capabilities across the APL enterprise that bring a strategic or integrative capability to complement or enhance other APL capabilities.
  • Playing an active role in developing ideas to expand NSAD's application of AI and generative AI capabilities to analyses.
  • Developing and maintaining effective working relationships across NSAD and the Laboratory.
  • Qualifications
