  Tackle ambiguous technical challenges, taking ownership of roadblocks and finding scrappy, effective workarounds.
• Data Integration:
  Structure and query databases to handle the complex, dynamic data required for robust simulations.

• Active TS/SCI clearance.
• Proficiency in at least one object-oriented programming language (Python, Java, C++).
• Solid knowledge of Git and collaborative coding workflows.
• Working knowledge of databases (relational, graph, or No
  
  SQL) and programmatic interaction.
• A demonstrated aggressive appetite for solving difficult problems, learning new technologies on the fly, and adapting to shifting requirements.

• Knowledge of containerization and orchestration tools (Docker, Kubernetes).
• Familiarity or interest in agent-based modeling, geospatial data, or complex systems simulation.
