Job Description

The Fire Department of the City of New York (FDNY) is the largest Fire Department in the United States and universally is recognized as the world's busiest and most highly skilled emergency response agency. The Department's main goal is to provide fire protection, emergency medical care, and other critical public safety services to residents and visitors in the five boroughs. FDNY members are sworn to serve and protect life and property and the Department works to continually educate the public in fire, life safety and disaster preparedness, along with enforcing public safety codes.

In addition, the Bureau of Fire Prevention is critical partner with the Bureau of Fire Operations (Firefighters) and Bureau of Fire Investigations (Fire Marshals), providing assistance and guidance during post-fire incidents and investigations; and coordinating with other City agencies on matters concerning fire and life safety. The Bureau consists of Fire Protection Inspectors, lawyers, engineers, explosives experts, and Fire Officers work together to save lives in New York City.

The Fire Department, City of New York (FDNY), seeks a full-time City Research Scientist in the Bureau of Fire Prevention. Reporting to the Director of Performance Management, the City Research Scientist, Level 2, will provide information and data to support evidence-based decision-making, lead research aligned with departmental goals, foster external collaborations, develop advanced models and algorithms, ensure research quality, translate findings into practical applications, and mentor within an innovative research environment.
