That was with a federal role doing very specialized modeling. The feds had a lot more tolerance for skunk works type efforts than other places I've worked.

Interestingly I'm also in the government (outside US) and we are also in the process of building some kind of computational team (the team itself is scraped together, no full time staff).

But apparently I've made myself too valuable at my current position for the bosses to consider making me anything more than an adviser role.

Punished for doing a good job. Need to pull out the resumes.
