TL;DR · Agentic AI Forward-Deployed Engineer

The Agentic AI Forward-Deployed Engineer joins the Global Defense Disruption Cell to embed with program teams and transform manual workflows into automated agentic processes. You will map complex workflows, identify exception paths, and design, build, and deploy AI agents that reason and act across existing tools and APIs. Key responsibilities include developing evaluation frameworks, golden datasets, and regression tests to move agents from shadow mode to production. You will also manage change by training the workforce and redesigning roles around automation supervision. Required skills include 5+ years of software engineering experience, proficiency in Python or TypeScript, and expertise in LLMs, RAG, MCP, or multi-agent orchestration. You must be able to integrate with enterprise systems like ERP, CRM, and SharePoint while obtaining a Secret clearance.

What you'll do

  • Map and document existing workflows, data flows, and exception paths by embedding with program teams.
  • Produce automation roadmaps that prioritize high-volume workflows based on expected value and risk.
  • Design, build, and deploy AI agents that reason and act across existing tools and APIs.
  • Develop evaluation frameworks, golden datasets, and regression tests to validate non-deterministic agent behavior.
  • Instrument agents with audit trails, monitoring, and metrics to track value and risk reduction.
  • Drive adoption and change management by training the workforce and redesigning roles around automation supervision.
  • Codify field learnings into reusable playbooks, components, and shared capabilities for the broader organization.

What we're looking for

  • 5+ years of experience in software engineering, machine learning engineering, technical advisory, or solutions engineering roles.
  • 2+ years of experience building applications with generative and agentic AI technologies, including LLMs, RAG, MCP, or multi-agent orchestration.
  • Experience developing production code in Python or TypeScript.
  • Experience deploying an LLM-powered system or AI agent into a production environment, including evaluation, monitoring, and iteration.
  • Experience integrating with enterprise systems and data sources such as ERP, CRM, ITSM, or SharePoint.
  • Experience working with customers or business stakeholders to elicit requirements, map processes, and guide technology adoption.
  • Ability to obtain a Secret clearance.
  • Experience with agentic coding and orchestration tools such as LangGraph or OpenAI Agents SDK (preferred).
  • Experience in a forward deployed, embedded, or residency-style engineering role at a customer site (preferred).
  • Experience with organizational change management, training, or workforce transition programs (preferred).
  • Experience with business process analysis, BPMN, or value stream mapping (preferred).
  • Experience with cloud platforms and containerized deployment including AWS, Azure, Kubernetes, or Terraform (preferred).
  • Master's degree (preferred).
  • Secret clearance (preferred).
