About ICA, Inc.
ICA, Inc. is a rapidly growing company, located in the D.C./Metro area. We were founded in 2009 to assist government clients with evaluating and achieving their objectives. We have become a trusted advisor helping our clients by offering cutting-edge innovation and solutions to complex projects. Our small company has grown significantly, and we're overjoyed at the opportunity to expand yet again!
We are results-focused and have a proven track record supporting federal agencies and large government services primes in three main areas: Research and Data Analysis, Advanced-Data Science, and Strategic Services. We currently support multiple analytics and research programs across HHS.
At ICA, we believe our success starts with our people. We foster a collaborative \"one team\" environment where work-life balance isn't just talked about – it's prioritized. We're building dynamic, highly skilled teams in a welcoming and supportive atmosphere. If you're passionate about using your technical expertise to make a difference, we want to talk to you.
ABOUT THE ROLE:
ICA.ai is seeking a Data Scientist to design and deliver data science and AI solutions for complex healthcare, federal health, and regulated-data environments. This role requires strong technical depth, practical judgment, and the ability to take ownership from ambiguous problem definition through evaluation and production. A Public Trust Clearance is required for the role, and we will work with you to obtain this.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:
Build machine-learning, analytics, NLP, and generative-AI solutions using structured and unstructured data.
Develop and improve workflows that transform documents, free text, and other complex source data into reliable structured outputs.
Build downstream data-science solutions such as classification, prediction, prioritization, analytics, and decision-support workflows.
Perform data preparation, feature development, experimentation, model evaluation, error analysis, and validation.
Investigate model and data-quality issues and iterate on approaches when results do not meet expectations.
Contribute to production workflows, monitoring, human-review processes, and reproducible data-science practices.
Work with senior technical staff, domain experts, and stakeholders to translate requirements into practical technical solutions.
REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS:
Bachelor's Degree, or equivalent work experience in Data Science or related field
Hands-on experience building data science, machine-learning, or applied-AI solutions.
Strong Python and SQL skills with solid foundations in statistics, machine learning, experimentation, and data analysis.
Experience working with unstructured data such as documents, free text, NLP, information extraction, document AI, or LLM-based workflows.
Ability to independently execute defined projects, evaluate results, troubleshoot failures, and communicate findings clearly.
Understanding of how data quality and extraction errors can affect downstream models and analytics.
Experience working with production systems, sensitive data, or high-accountability environments is preferred.
Experience in healthcare, life sciences, government, or regulated industries is a plus.
Must be authorized to work in the United States and have lived in the US for 3 or more consecutive years.
Must be able and willing to obtain a Public Trust Clearance
