Détails du poste

Zaden Technologies is hiring a Senior Data Scientist / Analysis Lead to lead the independent analysis function on a ground data processing modernization effort supporting a national security space mission. As legacy applications move from bare-metal systems into a modern on-prem cloud environment, you'll prove — with data — that each modernized application does no harm, validating performance, timing, and output equivalence against the legacy baseline. Rather than a manual test bench, you'll build this proof as an automated, repeatable capability. This is a full-time, on-site position in Aurora, CO, with an anticipated start of January 2027. Role Responsibilities: Design and run baseline captures on legacy applications (outputs, timing, resource envelopes) and replay-based comparisons against modernized builds Build automated analysis pipelines that diff telemetry and generate per-application, per-release performance and regression reports Define the metrics, acceptance thresholds, and evidence standards used to accept each migrated application Present independent findings to program leadership and stakeholders with clear, defensible data Mentor supporting data engineers and test automation engineers as the analysis team grows Required Qualifications: Active TS/SCI clearance, or current TS/SCI eligibility, and U.S. citizenship 7+ years in data science, quantitative analysis, or test and evaluation for complex software or mission systems Strong Python and data engineering skills (pandas or similar, SQL, data pipelines) and statistics fundamentals Experience analyzing system or software performance data (latency, throughput, resource utilization) and automating that analysis Ability to work independently as a trusted verification voice on a multi-company team Preferred Qualifications: IV&V, independent assessment, or test and evaluation background on DoD programs Experience with containerized environments and CI/CD-produced builds Physics, signal processing, or sensor data background What we offer: Robust startup environment with a variety of projects to work on Growth paths and endless opportunities to learn and develop Paid holidays and flexible paid time off Employer contributions toward 401k 50% coverage of health insurance for employees and their dependents
