Lead Data Scientist
Harmonia | Revolutional
Lead Data Scientist
This position supports Revolutional's federal customer as part of an application transformation and modernization initiative.
This program is driving a large-scale transformation of systems into a data-centric, cloud-native ecosystem capable of supporting high-volume, near real-time data processing and advanced analytics. The work includes modernization of legacy applications, development of new cloud-native solutions, and implementation of DevSecOps and scaled Agile practices across the organization.
The core challenge: orchestrating complex, multi-contractor delivery while transforming both technology and operating models without disrupting mission-critical operations.

- Support DataOps and Agile data science practices including iterative development, pipeline automation, CI/CD integration, and collaborative model delivery
- Ensure analytics solutions align with enterprise security, privacy, and compliance requirements
- Drive improvements in data quality, validation, accessibility, and operational analytics reliability
