You will apply analytical techniques such as regression analysis, learning curves, risk and uncertainty analysis to produce credible, comprehensive cost positions. Using data analysis and visualization tools, you will model and clearly communicate results to senior leaders. Your work will help ensure the Navy fields systems on time and with resources aligned to mission needs.
