AI SOLUTIONS ENGINEER: THE OPPORTUNITY

AI is no longer just a research concept – it’s becoming an essential part of how complex enterprises operate, compete, and deliver value. We’re looking for engineers who are eager to work at the intersection of AI innovation and real‑world system integration. You’ll help architect, build, and deploy intelligent, agentic solutions that work across legacy infrastructure, modern platforms, and various stakeholder needs.

In this role, you’ll work closely with senior architects, platform leads, and business stakeholders to design AI‑enabled systems that solve meaningful problems across enterprise and mission environments. You’ll gain exposure to next‑generation tooling, including LLMs, RAG pipelines, and AI agents, while contributing to high‑impact efforts that demand both technical skill and strategic insight. If you’re excited by the idea of turning cutting‑edge models into operational reality, this is the opportunity for you.

Join us. The world can’t wait.
