Senior AI/ML Application Developer to support the Defense Agencies Initiative (DAI) program. This is a hands-on technical position responsible for designing, developing, and delivering artificial intelligence and machine learning capabilities directly within the Oracle E-Business Suite 12.2.x financial management environment hosted on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI).
Summary:
•Client Agency is Defense Logistics Agency
•Design and deliver the AI/ML Functional and Technical Use Cases document, covering OCI-native AI service implementation for financial reporting automation, user experience optimization, and operational efficiency gains across the DAI ERP environment.
•Develop the AI/ML and DevSecOps Transition Roadmap laying out the phased approach for embedding AI capabilities into the DAI program and transitioning Agile processes from contractor to government ownership.
•Implement production-grade AI/ML capabilities using OCI-native services including OCI Data Science, OCI Language, and OCI Vision, with consideration for AWS GovCloud AI services where applicable per government direction.
•Build and integrate REST API connections between AI/ML models and Oracle EBS business processes, enabling automated decision support within financial workflows without requiring manual data extraction.
•Apply natural language processing techniques to financial document processing, including audit report analysis, accounting narrative classification, and automated ATM documentation generation from source content.
•Design and apply cognitive science approaches to improve AI readiness and human decision-making support within the DAI user community, focusing on how financial professionals interact with AI-augmented ERP processes.
•Lead research and development efforts in training design, competency modeling, and cognitive metrics as they apply to AI adoption within a federal financial management environment.
•Develop cognitive performance metrics that measure how effectively DAI users adopt AI-assisted workflows, providing quantifiable evidence of AI value delivery for program reporting.
•Apply knowledge discovery and data mining techniques to unstructured DAI operational data, identifying patterns that inform both audit remediation strategies and future automation priorities.
•Participate fully in Program Increment planning, iteration planning, daily standups, and iteration reviews as an active member of the Agile Release Train.
•Author well-formed user stories with precise acceptance criteria for AI/ML features, working with the Product Owner to prioritize backlog items against program objectives and technical dependencies.
