Job Description
Background
Data Exploitation and Artificial Intelligence (AI) are essential elements of NATO s digital transformation enabling and driving faster datadriven decisionmaking and operational efficiency. These technologies are crucial for building a more adaptive and responsive NATO prepared to meet the challenges of MultiDomain Operations (MDO) and a rapidly evolving security landscape. As NATOs command dedicated to future warfare Allied Command Transformation (ACT) leads efforts to explore develop and integrate latest technologies into military capabilities to transform the Alliance.
Wargaming has been recognized by NATO as a critical tool for future warfare development. It is essential for planning and decisionmaking simulating complex military scenarios to provide strategic operational and tactical insights. ACT is delivering wargaming capabilities for NATO employing it wargaming to understand military challenges and explore new technologies and strategies. ACT aims to refine NATO s use of wargaming by integrating AI thereby enhancing its capabilities and accelerating AI adoption.
EXPERIENCE AND EDUCATION:
Essential Qualifications/Experience:
University degree in Data Science Machine Learning (ML) Artificial Intelligence (AI) Computer Science or a related field OR equivalent professional experience (minimum 4 years) in Data Science ML AI within the last 7 years with at least 4 years focusing on AI capability integration (not pure development) in a professional environment (not including studies)
