Senior Software Engineer, Public Sector

The Public Sector software engineers (SWEs) create the core product building blocks that forward‑deployed teams use to develop agentic capabilities across multiple domains. SWEs are responsible for building the systems required to ingest and process federal datasets to support real‑time decision‑making in contested environments. We develop novel agentic enabling capabilities that include: Create multi‑layered guardrails around agents Optimize data retrieval for agents Orchestrate fleets of asynchronous agents Automatically alert users to deviations in data Illustrate how an agent reached a decision Senior Software Engineer As a Senior Software Engineer, you will lead the development of a vertical feature or a horizontal capability, including defining requirements with stakeholders and implementing until it is accepted by the stakeholders. Responsibilities Lead the design and implementation of scalable backend systems and distributed architectures for federal customers. Manage the full lifecycle of feature development from requirement definition to deployment on classified networks. Direct the orchestration of asynchronous agent fleets to meet mission requirements. Lead customer engagements to translate mission needs into technical requirements. Own communication with stakeholders to ensure implementation meets defined acceptance criteria. Conduct technical reviews and identify risks within machine learning infrastructure and model serving. Drive the platform roadmap by providing technical specifications for federal product offerings.
