Agentic AI Machine Learning Engineer
New Yesterday
Overview Agentic AI Machine Learning Engineer. The Opportunity: As an experienced machine learning engineer, you understand good software is more than just a good user experience. To compete in today’s technical landscape, mission-oriented machine learning solutions must be architected, designed, and built to handle fast-moving data, to seamlessly scale with infrastructure based on system usage, and to expand based on evolving mission requirements. We’re looking for an engineer to create artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) enabled solutions that help solve our toughest challenges facing the Defense and Intelligence sectors. On our team, you’ll design, create, and implement complete AI systems that will transform client operations, increase data accessibility, and optimize AI and ML systems. You’ll ensure that your team’s solutions consider the broader ecosystem and operating environment as well as future functionality and enhancements. Additionally, you’ll deepen your skill set in areas like software engineering, machine learning operations (MLOps), and software deployment and integration into a variety of different mission environments.
Responsibilities and expectations include transforming data accessibility and operationalizing AI/ML systems to support defense and intelligence missions, designing and implementing robust AI systems, and collaborating to ensure solutions align with the broader environment and future needs.
