General Atomics Integrated Intelligence Inc. (GA Intelligence) develops cutting‑edge software solutions that transform raw data into actionable intelligence. We specialize in real‑time global situational awareness and battle management, processing petabytes of data from hundreds of sources across air, land, and sea. Our systems—including the widely used THRESHER and DRAGON SPELL platforms—support tens of thousands of users at all levels of the DoD and Intelligence Community and enable critical decision‑making for national security missions.

We process hundreds of thousands of observations per minute, operating at the scale of global sensor networks and battlefield telemetry. We develop streaming and batch analytics that enable both strategic analysis and tactical decision‑making. By experimenting with new techniques and technologies, we continuously push the boundaries of innovation while rigorously testing all solutions to ensure they meet mission‑critical standards. Our analytics include tracking, activity detection, and automatic target recognition (from imagery).

GA Intelligence combines the staying power of an experienced defense contractor with the agility and values of a mission‑focused technology company. We’ve spent decades building systems our users love—trusted tools used daily by operators and analysts across the national security community. Our customers keep coming back because we deliver what we promise, and our engineers stay because they get to solve real problems that truly matter.

We’re not a flashy startup. We don’t chase headlines—we focus on delivering reliable capabilities with long‑term impact. And while we share DNA with traditional defense contractors, we operate differently. As a privately held company, we make decisions based on what’s right for the mission, not for a quarterly earnings call. We move fast when it counts, think long‑term, and hold ourselves to the highest technical and ethical standards.

• Solving Meaningful Challenges – Building mission‑driven technology that makes a difference
• Collaborative Culture – Working as a team to push boundaries and innovate
• Technical Excellence – Encouraging continuous learning, curiosity, and efficiency
• Idea Meritocracy – Valuing ideas based on impact, not hierarchy

If these principles resonate with you—not just in theory, but in daily practice—you’ll find yourself at home here.

We are seeking Data Scientists to help build the next generation of global situational awareness and battle orchestration capabilities. You’ll collaborate with cross‑functional teams—including software engineers, mission engineers, product owners, and other data scientists—to design and deliver solutions that transform raw data into actionable intelligence.

Whether you’re developing machine learning models, analyzing multi‑source data, or shaping how insights reach the end user, your work will directly support operational missions with real‑world impact. As such, we take pride in delivering analytically rigorous solutions. Our data scientist don’t just run the models; they understand the math behind them.

Lead Data Scientists at GA Intelligence are technical leaders who shape strategy, architecture, and delivery across complex analytical projects. You’ll drive the design and implementation of high‑performance solutions, set rigorous analytical standards, and contribute to the long‑term technical direction of mission‑critical systems. In addition to developing and maintaining critical models, you’ll act as a mentor, decision‑maker, and trusted advisor within the team and with external stakeholders.

Your teams will be comprised of Data Scientists and…
