About the Role

Public Sector engineers build the core product including the systems required to ingest and process federal datasets that support real-time decision-making in contested environments. As a New Grad Software Engineer on this team, you will own meaningful, mission-facing work from day one: shipping features, sitting with the government stakeholders who use them, and iterating fast.

Responsibilities

  • Build multi-layered guardrails that keep agents safe and predictable in high-stakes federal environments
  • Optimize data retrieval for agents, including RAG pipelines over large, heterogeneous federal datasets
  • Build orchestration for fleets of asynchronous agents running long-horizon tasks
  • Develop systems that automatically alert users to deviations and anomalies in incoming data
  • Create interfaces that illustrate how an agent reached a decision, so operators can audit and trust its output
  • Develop data pipelines and ML infrastructure that make previously siloed government data sources accessible to agents
  • Build evaluation infrastructure that measures model reliability against mission requirements
  • Ship full-stack tooling that lets analysts query, visualize, and explore mission data
  • Deploy and harden applications into secure, air-gapped, and cloud-native government environments

Requirements

  • Product engineering experience such as building web apps full-stack, integrating with relevant APIs and services, talking to users, figuring out 'what' to build and then iterating
  • Previous Product/Software Engineering internship experience
  • Track record of shipping high-quality products and features at scale
  • Experience building systems that process large volumes of data
  • Experience with Python, Typescript, React, and/or MongoDB
  • Strong written and verbal communication — you will work directly with government stakeholders and must be able to explain technical concepts to non-technical audiences
  • Comfort with ambiguity and evolving requirements, and a willingness to learn new domains quickly
