The USDA Forest Service has legislative authority to recruit and fill Permanent (Career/Career-Conditional), Temporary, and Term Appointments under the USDA Demonstration Project. Under this authority, any U.S. citizen may apply.
USCITIZEN SSR PROBATION US Citizenship is required. Selective Service Registration is required for males born after 12/31/1959. A 1-year probationary period is required.
You serve as a professional consultant to the NFDSC scientists on the choice and application of statistical methods and techniques with special emphasis on experimental design, linear and non-linear regression, general linear models, linear and non-linear mixed effects models, reliability analyses, response surface methods, and simulation techniques.
You develop innovative data displays, including publication quality graphics. You translate analytical results so that scientists can understand the statistical methods employed and the interpretation and presentation of the results.
You will formulate and plan approaches to work, and establish the criteria for analyzing and testing various methods available for use. You are responsible for scheduling the work and meeting deadlines by projecting the length of time needed. You will keep records of projects and periodically update reports of the work.
