AI Machine Learning Engineer Sr.

When it comes to cutting edge machine learning to tackle complex problems, Lockheed Martin is driven by a singular mission focus and desire to continuously innovate. Today's challenges to global security aren't just changing – They're accelerating faster than ever before. Through our dedication to our mission, our AI-enabled systems are changing the way militaries operate and protect their forces, the way first responders fight fires, and how researchers explore the far reaches of space and the ocean's depths. The Lockheed Martin Artificial Intelligence Center (LAIC) team is seeking an individual with a strong working knowledge in Large Language Models or Reinforcement Learning, software engineering and Python to support the Applied AI Mission Management team and product portfolio focusing on Cogniverse Mission Management. The team is focused on developing small, innovative teams to rapidly iterate and mature solutions from prototypes to production for utilization across the enterprise and the field for our customers. The selected candidate will focus on the development of advanced AI agents and tooling supporting the Cogniverse simulation product. This will require engagement in every phase of the software/system development lifecycle including requirements generation, system and software design, implementation, testing and integration. Activities will range from low TRL research, proof of concepts, rapid prototyping and transition to production. The selected candidate can expect to have exposure to the latest AI paradigms in generative AI and reinforcement learning (RL) to create high fidelity training and simulation environments for a wide range of applications. Candidates should exhibit self-motivation, a strong work ethic, communication, time management and interpersonal skills. Must be located near an LM location. US Citizenship is required due to need for clearance eligibility. #LMLAIC
