Working under the guidance of senior developers, analysts, data teams, and business stakeholders, the Junior BI Developer will support the development, maintenance, testing, and troubleshooting of enterprise reporting solutions using SAP BusinessObjects, SQL, and related analytics tools. Responsibilities include:

• Assisting with report and universe development
• Creating and validating SQL queries
• Testing and validating report outputs
• Documenting report logic and technical specifications
• Supporting ongoing reporting operations and production issue resolution

This position provides exposure to the full reporting solution lifecycle, including:

• Requirements analysis
• Design support
• Development
• Testing
• Deployment
• Maintenance
• Continuous improvement of analytical products and reporting applications within enterprise business intelligence environments

Qualifications

• U.S. citizen or otherwise authorized to work in the United States and able to demonstrate physical residency in the U.S. for at least three (3) of the past five (5) years. Must be able to obtain a U.S. Federal government client badge and pass a Public Trust clearance.
• Master’s degree in Computer Science, Data Science, or a related field required; PhD preferred.
• A minimum of six (6) years of experience or an equivalent combination of education and experience, with three (3) or more years of experience as a Data Scientist or in a similar role.
• Strong experience in machine learning and statistical modeling, including supervised and unsupervised learning techniques, deep learning, and a solid foundation in probability, hypothesis testing, and regression.
• Proven expertise in NLP and text analytics, including transformer-based architecture (e.g., BERT and related models), embeddings, vector databases, and semantic search systems.
• Hands-on experience building LLM-powered applications, including prompt engineering, RAG architecture, and ideally agentic workflows or LLM orchestration frameworks, preferably within AWS environments (e.g., Bedrock).
• Experience with developing and using knowledge graphs strongly preferred.
• Advanced programming skills in Python (preferred) and/or R, with practical experience using ML and data libraries such as pandas, NumPy, scikit-learn, PyTorch, and TensorFlow.
• Strong experience with AWS cloud and MLOps tooling, including SageMaker, S3, Glue, Airflow, and data stores such as Redshift and DynamoDB, along with version control (GitHub) and CI/CD pipelines (e.g., Jenkins).
• Experience with backend systems and data integration, including data modeling and supporting APIs for web-based and production applications.
• Experience working with large healthcare datasets, especially Medicaid, a plus.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to explain complex models and insights clearly.
• Experience supporting CMS or other federal healthcare agencies is a plus.

Requirements

• Design, develop, and maintain machine learning and deep learning models, including both traditional (e.g., regression, tree-based models) and neural network-based approaches.
• Build and deploy end-to-end ML pipelines on AWS (e.g., SageMaker, S3, Glue) for scalable training, evaluation, and inference.
• Develop and implement advanced NLP solutions, including text classification, entity recognition, topic modeling, and semantic search using models such as BERT and transformer-based architectures.
• Design, build, and productionize RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) systems, including document ingestion, embedding pipelines, vector search, and LLM orchestration.
• Design and implement a scalable knowledge graph and semantic data model that captures relationships among policies, analytic use cases, data domains, information assets, products, and institutional knowledge, enabling advanced search, discovery, impact analysis, and AI-assisted knowledge retrieval.
• Develop LLM-powered applications, including prompt engineering, evaluation frameworks, and optimization techniques for accuracy, consistency, and cost.
• Contribute to agentic AI system design, including multi-step reasoning workflows, tool use, and orchestration of LLM-driven agents for complex tasks.
• Implement predictive analytics and statistical modeling to uncover patterns, trends, and insights from healthcare data.
• Perform data mining and exploratory data analysis (EDA) using state-of-the-art techniques across structured and unstructured datasets.
• Build data visualizations, dashboards, and analytical tools to communicate findings clearly to technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Evaluate model performance using appropriate metrics (e.g., accuracy, AUC, precision/recall) and present results in a clear, actionable manner.
• Collaborate in an Agile environment with cross-functional teams including engineers, analysts, and stakeholders.
• Recommend data-driven solutions and AI strategies aligned with CMS business needs and healthcare policy objectives.
