SENIOR OPERATIONS RESEARCH ANALYST
BASIC REQUIREMENTS:
A Bachelor's degree (or higher degree) in operations research; or a degree with at least 24 semester hours in a combination of operations research, mathematics, probability, statistics, mathematical logic, science, or subject-matter courses requiring substantial competence in college-level mathematics or statistics. At least 3 of the 24 semester hours must have been in calculus. NOTE:
You must submit a copy of official transcripts. Evaluation of Education:
The primary requirement of operations research work is competence in the rigorous methods of scientific inquiry and analysis rather than in the subject matter of the problem. Therefore, applicants should have sufficient knowledge of applied mathematics to understand and use the fundamental concepts and techniques of operations research methods of analysis. In addition, some positions may require knowledge of a specific subject area. Courses acceptable for qualifying for operations research positions may have been taken in departments other than Operations Research, e.g., Engineering (usually Industrial Engineering), Science, Economics, Mathematics, Statistics, or Management Science. AND SPECIALIZED
Experience:
Applicants must have at least one (1) year of specialized experience at the next lower grade (GS-13) level or equivalent (DR-02) (grade level, pay schedule, pay band, etc) and is described in detail in my resume. Creditable specialized experience includes:
Development of innovative methods for strategic planning analysis integrating assumptions, constraints, data sets, and analytic frameworks to inform strategic plans, goals, and processes. Lead, plan and execute campaign analyses and wargame studies to examine alternative force structures in terms of strategic-level goals, effects, risks, and measurements. Experience leading multi-disciplinary analysis teams. Experience employing analytical tools and considering alternatives and changes to current plans for military operations at the mission, campaign, and strategic levels. FEDERAL TIME-IN-GRADE (TIG) REQUIREMENT FOR GENERAL SCHEDULE (GS) POSITIONS:
Merit promotion applicants must meet applicable time-in- grade requirements to be considered eligible. One year at the GS-13 (DR-02) level is required to meet the time-in-grade requirements for the GS-14 (DR-03) level. TIG applies if you are in a current GS position or held a GS position within the previous 52 weeks. NOTE:
Applicants applying as VEOA candidates who are current GS civil service employees or are prior GS civil service employees within the past 52 weeks must also meet time-in-grade requirements. COMPETENCIES:
Your qualifications will be evaluated on the basis of your level of knowledge, skills, abilities and/or competencies in the following areas:
Problem Solving, Communication, Technology Management and Teamwork and Leadership. PART-TIME OR UNPAID
Experience:
Credit will be given for appropriate unpaid and or part-time work. You must clearly identify the duties and responsibilities in each position held and the total number of hours per week. VOLUNTEER WORK
Experience:
Refers to paid and unpaid experience, including volunteer work done through National Service Programs (i.e., Peace Corps, AmeriCorps) and other organizations (e.g., professional; philanthropic; religious; spiritual; community; student and social). Volunteer work helps build critical competencies, knowledge and skills that can provide valuable training and experience that translates directly to paid employment. You will receive credit for all qualifying experience, including volunteer experience.
Estimated Salary: $20 to $28 per hour based on qualifications.
