Senior AIML Software Engineer (TSSCI with Polygraph)

We are seeking a Senior AI/ML Software Engineer to design build and integrate AI-driven capabilities within secure cloud-based mission systems and analyst workflows. This role will develop full-stack applications and services using technologies such as large language models (LLMs) retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) agentic workflows and other AI/ML approaches to support cyber data analysis and decision-making.

The position combines software engineering AI/ML development and cloud technologies with a focus on rapidly prototyping evaluating and deploying solutions in secure government environments. The Senior AI/ML Software Engineer will work closely with technical teams Cyber Analysts and stakeholders to develop capabilities that address mission requirements and evolving data needs.

Key responsibilities include but are not limited to:

• Design and develop full-stack applications services and tools incorporating LLMs RAG agentic workflows and other AI/ML capabilities.
• Develop and deploy AI/ML models and solutions for data mining predictive modeling knowledge discovery and cyber data analysis.
• Integrate AI/ML capabilities into secure cloud-based architectures using standardized APIs and existing system components.
• Evaluate and monitor model performance using appropriate metrics and representative datasets including monitoring for data and concept drift and supporting model retraining and fine-tuning.
• Work with Cyber Analysts to respond to vulnerability-related requests and continually improve LLM-enabled capabilities.
• Analyze data patterns related to system and network misconfigurations.
• Collaborate with data engineers software developers and stakeholders to define requirements validate results and support mission deliverables.
• Evaluate internally developed solutions against commercial open-source and industry-standard approaches through analyses of alternatives (AoAs).
