Solutions Engineer - U.S. Public Sector (TS/SCI)

About Arango At Arango, we believe the first generation of enterprise AI missed something essential: Context. For the U.S. Public Sector, accuracy isn’t just a metric—it’s mission‑critical. LLM models are powerful, but without the right data foundation, they lack the context needed to provide actionable intelligence. Arango provides a trusted data foundation for the next wave of U.S. Public Sector AI with graph‑based Contextual AI. We transform disparate data into a System of Context that truly represents the operational environment, enabling Intelligence Analysts and Warfighters to achieve superior outcomes with unlimited scale and security. The Arango AI Data Platform unifies graph, vector, document, and key‑value data into a single, integrated environment. Trusted by the U.S. Air Force, NIH, NVIDIA, and HPE, Arango powers the bridge between raw enterprise data and secure LLMs. We are proud members of the NVIDIA Inception and AWS ISV Accelerate Programs.
