AI/ML Technologist

The Opportunity:

What if you could use your artificial intelligence and machine learning background to transform high-risk, high-reward scientific research programs? As a technologist, you understand the power behind complex systems. That knowledge is key when it comes to help shape and guide advanced research programs for the Intelligence Community. We’re looking for expertise in physics, machine learning, and artificial intelligence to help program managers run successful research programs ensuring the capability to meet the threats of the 21st century.

Our team of scientists provide Systems Engineering and Technical Assistance (SETA) support to programs that have the potential to provide our nation with an overwhelming intelligence advantage. That’s why we need you, a physicist, who specializes in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning, to help us advise our clients' work with research partners that come from Academia, other research institutions, and private industry. You’ll work hand in hand with the program manager to deliver technical support and expertise on new concepts beyond the program but integral to the program’s success.
