Operations Analyst

Operations Analyst

We’re looking for a math nerd — but the kind who wants to make an impact that actually matters.

Position: Operations Analyst

Clearance:
Active TS/SCI Required

If solving complex problems with data, logic, and a touch of creativity sounds like your idea of fun, you’re in the right place. Our client is looking for a passionate Operations Analyst to bring mathematical muscle and analytical insight to some of the most critical defense programs in the nation. You’ll help shape smarter decisions, optimize mission outcomes, and make sense of the chaos through models, simulations, and good old-fashioned number crunching.

• Turn data into decisions — design and apply mathematical, statistical, or simulation models to crack tough operational challenges.
• Put your models to the test — validate and refine them to ensure accuracy and mission alignment.
• Collaborate with leadership and technical teams to define problems, explore alternatives, and recommend data-driven solutions.
• Translate your analysis into action — present findings that drive real decisions and measurable results.
• Support solution implementation to help teams operate smarter, faster, and more effectively.
• Evaluate weapon system elements, assess risks, and identify opportunities for improvement.
• Use OR techniques to predict outcomes and support risk management strategies.
• Contribute to the Weapon System Worthiness Assessment (WWA) process by integrating and documenting risk data.
• Summarize findings in reports that inform top-level strategy and command decisions.

• A bachelor’s degree in Operations Research, Mathematics, Engineering, Science, or a related field.
• 5+ years of experience in operations research, systems analysis, or management science.
• A proven ability to build, apply, and interpret mathematical or optimization models.
• Strong data analysis and model validation skills.
• Experience supporting Air Force or NC3 programs (bonus points!).
• Excellent communication and problem-solving skills — you can explain complex ideas to both engineers and executives.
• Detail-oriented mindset with a collaborative spirit.
• U.S. citizenship and an active Top Secret / SCI clearance (required).

You won’t just be crunching numbers — you’ll be driving missions
, influencing strategy
, and helping protect national security
. If you geek out over finding patterns in chaos and using math to make meaningful change, this is your place to shine.
