AI Forward Deployed Engineer

We are looking for an AI Forward Deployed Engineer with up to 10 years of experience to build and deploy cutting-edge agentic AI systems for high-impact U.S. Government missions. You'll own the full lifecycle of production-grade AI — from prototype to deployment — working 80% hands-on in engineering and 20% directly with strategic government partners in the field.

What will you be doing?

• Build and deploy agentic AI systems (LLMs, multi-agent, RAG, human-in-the-loop) from prototype to production for U.S. Government missions.
• Work directly with government partners in forward-deployed environments to translate mission needs into real technical systems.
• Design and maintain large-scale data curation, evaluation, and ML infrastructure pipelines.
• Own systems across the full lifecycle — architecture, implementation, deployment, reliability, and iteration.
• Build new AI systems (not maintain legacy code) that turn mission data and models into operational autonomy.

Key Requirements

• Strong Python engineering skills with end-to-end ownership experience.
• Hands-on experience building and deploying LLM-powered agentic systems.
• Experience building or maintaining data pipelines or ML infrastructure.
• Ability to operate independently in ambiguous, partner-facing environments.
• Formal degree in a technical field; no active security clearance required on day one (sponsorship available).
