Software Engineer, Machine Learning (Systems)

Sweep360
York, NY Full Time
POSTED ON 4/18/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 6/18/2026

TL;DR — We’re building humanity’s defense layer for the AI age and are looking for an exceptional ML engineer to stabilize the system that turns raw signal into decisions — across device, cloud, and offline environments.

If you would have joined early Tesla to make Autopilot work in the real world and improve across the fleet — this is that role.


Why Sweep?

As intelligent machines proliferate into every part of the physical world, we humans still lack a defense layer to ensure the systems and devices we rely on remain aligned with us.

We're building that layer today by deploying alongside the world’s highest-stakes teams — Olympic delegations, F1 paddocks, halftime shows, global tours, studio productions, senior government officials, and executive protection units. What we learn there becomes the foundation for a civilization-defining capability.

We’re a small, talent-dense team with high ownership, high velocity, and low ego. We care deeply, move fast, and are here to build something that outlasts us.

Together, we’ll redefine cyber-physical security for the AI age.

What makes this role special?
  • First dedicated ML systems hire.
  • You’re the difference between a system that exists and one that works.
  • Make the system reliable under pressure — data, pipelines, and decision logic.
  • Take outputs from sensing systems and turn them into consistent, trusted decisions.
  • Define how inference works when inputs are incomplete, noisy, or conflicting.
  • Your work is used in high-stakes environments where outputs must be trusted.
  • Gain pre-Series A ownership as one of the first 10 engineers.
What we’re looking for...
  • 5–10 years building and operating production systems
  • Strong system design across APIs, pipelines, and data storage
  • Deployed ML / LLM systems in production and improved them via feedback loops
  • Strong Python, plus Go/TypeScript (or similar)
  • Comfortable working across device and cloud environments.
  • Able to debug production systems quickly and decisively.
  • Communicates clearly and operates independently. 
  • U.S. Person status required (may involve export-controlled data).
Bonus if you’ve...
  • Built RF / BLE classification systems and models from zero.
  • Handled streaming systems (Kafka, pub/sub).
  • Created LLM pipelines (prompting, retrieval, evaluation).
  • Designed for adversarial or security environments.
  • Built systems that run on-device as well as in the cloud.
  • Thrived in early-stage startup environment.
What you’ll do...
  • Own system behavior and data pipelines.
  • Design ingestion → reasoning → decision systems.
  • Improve the decision layer for consistency and reliability.
  • Close the loop from deployments → system learning.
  • Ensure system reliability across device, cloud, and partial connectivity.
  • Partner with RF / hardware / field teams to deliver for elite users globally (~10–15% travel).
How we select...
  • Short application
  • 20-minute intro call
  • Technical deep-dive
  • Practical problem discussion
  • References and offer
