About the role

Key responsibilities & impact
  • Support data preprocessing and feature engineering pipelines: clean, normalize, and validate HRSA fraud-related datasets; prepare class-imbalance handling and train/validation/test splits.
  • Assist in developing, training, and evaluating supervised fraud classification models and document evaluation metrics for government review.
  • Maintain ML experiment tracking using MLflow or equivalent tooling, including hyperparameters, training runs, evaluation results, and reproducibility documentation.
  • Support model drift detection and retraining pipelines; run scheduled evaluations, flag degradation, and escalate findings.
  • Assist the NLP/NER pipeline team with data transformation and entity-extraction quality validation.
  • Develop and maintain Jupyter notebook model exploration and reporting artifacts.
  • Support UiPath Maestro agent integration testing, including inference payloads and input/output schema validation.
  • Implement and maintain Python/Pandas/NumPy data pipeline scripts for ingestion, feature-store updates, and batch scoring.
  • Follow IRMS data-handling procedures, including PII/PHI restrictions and developer/test environment segregation.
  • Produce EPLC deliverables such as training-data specifications, model-evaluation appendices, data-dictionary updates, and sprint documentation.
  • Participate in code reviews and follow OWASP, NIST SP 800-160, and internal CI/CD quality standards.

Requirements

What you’ll need
  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Data Science, Mathematics, Statistics, or a closely related field; recent graduates with strong applied ML coursework or project portfolios will be considered.
  • 1–3 years of hands-on experience (including internships, graduate research, or project work) in machine learning, data science, or data engineering with Python.
  • Proficiency in Python ML stack: scikit-learn, Pandas, NumPy; familiarity with at least one deep learning framework (TensorFlow or PyTorch) for model evaluation and inference tasks.
  • Demonstrated experience with standard ML evaluation workflows: train/validation/test split design, cross-validation, metric computation, and results documentation.
  • Experience with Jupyter notebooks for data exploration, model evaluation, and technical reporting.
  • Familiarity with Git-based version control and CI/CD principles; ability to work within a structured sprint cadence with documented deliverable commitments.
  • Demonstrated ability to handle sensitive data responsibly; understanding of data governance, access control, and the importance of environment segregation in a regulated or government setting.
  • Strong written communication skills: ability to produce clear, organized technical documentation suitable for government review.
