Leidos(https://himalayas.app/companies/leidos) is seeking an Applied Data Scientist to join our Performance Management team supporting a large, mission-critical Navy program. This is a hands-on, solution-oriented role focused on using data, AI, and software development to solve operational performance challenges, build practical analytical capabilities, and deliver measurable improvements.
We are looking for someone who enjoys turning complex, sometimes ambiguous problems into working solutions. The ideal candidate combines strong technical development skills with an analytical, consultative mindset—someone who can understand operational challenges, identify opportunities, develop and implement solutions, and work with stakeholders to ensure those solutions deliver value.
The work centers on Service Level Requirements (SLRs) that govern contractual performance across the program, with additional support to broader Navy performance initiatives such as World Class Alignment Metrics (WAM). Key priorities include identifying performance improvement opportunities, strengthening the effectiveness of Plans of Action and Milestones (POAMs), and developing AI-enabled tools and workflows that help the team move from reactive analysis to proactive performance management.
This role sits at the intersection of applied analytics, AI solution development, and operational performance consulting. You will work closely with analysts, engineers, and performance leaders to translate business needs into practical technical solutions, while helping expand the team's ability to use AI, automation, and reusable code in everyday operations.
