Overview

We have an immediate need for an Artificial Intelligence (AI) Engineer to support TO-005, Report Authoring and Dissemination (RAD). This role will work closely with system and software engineers to design, prototype, and integrate AI-driven capabilities into the existing RAD architecture—while also contributing to the design of next-generation architecture built for scalability and large data processing.

This is a transformative opportunity to build systems from the ground up that augment human intelligence, streamline workflows, and enable data-driven decision-making across enterprise environments handling high-volume, complex datasets.

Key Responsibilities

AI Solution Design & Development

  • Lead end-to-end design and development of AI/ML solutions—from concept, prototyping, and architecture design to production deployment
  • Write production-grade code and contribute to scalable, maintainable software systems
  • Design modular, extensible architectures that support AI integration within enterprise platforms

Software Architecture & Engineering

  • Contribute to or lead the design of enterprise-grade software architecture from scratch, including microservices and distributed systems
  • Build backend services and APIs to support AI-driven applications and data pipelines
  • Ensure systems are designed for scalability, fault tolerance, and high availability
  • Implement best practices in software engineering, version control, CI/CD, and testing frameworks

Data Engineering & Large-Scale Processing

  • Design and implement data pipelines to ingest, process, and analyze large structured and unstructured datasets
  • Perform Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA) to inform model design and data strategy
  • Optimize data storage and retrieval for performance and scalability

Model Development & Deployment

  • Develop, train, evaluate, and fine-tune machine learning and deep learning models
  • Implement robust validation, testing, and monitoring to ensure model accuracy, fairness, and reliability
  • Deploy models into production environments using MLOps best practices

Collaboration & Communication

  • Serve as a technical liaison across engineering, data, and mission stakeholders
  • Clearly communicate AI approaches, tradeoffs, and system design decisions to both technical and non-technical audiences

Continuous Innovation

  • Stay current with emerging AI/ML technologies, frameworks, and enterprise data solutions
  • Identify opportunities to enhance system performance, automation, and intelligence capabilities


Required Technical Skills

Programming Languages

  • Strong proficiency in Python (primary for AI/ML development)
  • Experience with one or more backend/system languages: Java, Go, C , or Scala
  • Familiarity with SQL and working knowledge of query optimization for large datasets

AI/ML Frameworks & Tools

  • Experience with frameworks such as TensorFlow, PyTorch, Scikit-learn, or Hugging Face
  • Strong understanding of machine learning algorithms, deep learning, and data modeling techniques

Enterprise Software & Architecture

  • Experience designing or contributing to scalable software architectures, including:
    • Microservices-based architecture
    • Distributed systems and event-driven design
  • Experience building and consuming RESTful APIs or gRPC services
  • Familiarity with containerization (Docker) and orchestration tools like Kubernetes
  • Experience implementing CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, GitLab CI, GitHub Actions, etc.)

Data Engineering & Big Data Technologies

  • Experience working with large-scale datasets and distributed processing frameworks such as:
    • Apache Spark, Hadoop, or Flink
  • Familiarity with data streaming technologies (Kafka, Kinesis)
  • Experience with databases:
    • Relational: PostgreSQL, MySQL
    • NoSQL: MongoDB, Elasticsearch, DynamoDB

Cloud & MLOps

  • Hands-on experience with Amazon Web Services (AWS) (e.g., S3, EC2, Lambda, SageMaker)
  • Experience with MLOps tools for model deployment, monitoring, and lifecycle management
  • Understanding of infrastructure-as-code (Terraform, CloudFormation) is a plus

Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience building AI-enabled systems from the ground up in enterprise environments
  • Familiarity with data governance, security, and compliance in large-scale systems
  • Experience optimizing systems for performance, scalability, and cost efficiency
  • Exposure to natural language processing (NLP), especially in document or report generation systems
  • Experience supporting intelligence, analytics, or mission-focused platforms

• 401K: up to 3% discretionary profit sharing contribution 100% match on the 1st 7% of pay
• PTO: 20 days per year
• Healthcare, dental, vision, Free for a single participant
• $50,000 Life insurance provided, additional voluntary life insurance available
