Forward Deployed Industrial Engineer, Defense Logistics AI

Tagup is a defense technology company founded at MIT that is delivering logistics decision advantage with next-generation AI. We’re growing rapidly and are looking for change-makers passionate about delivering innovative technologies to solve the most challenging problems in the world’s highest stakes environments. This is an exciting opportunity to engage in meaningful work that strengthens national security and contributes to the success of U.S. and allied forces. Join us in shaping the future of defense logistics for a safer tomorrow.

The Marine Corps moves people, parts, and equipment around the world on timelines that don't forgive guesswork. We build the AI systems that help them do it — reinforcement learning–based planning and optimization software deployed inside real military logistics operations, from Marine Logistics Groups to Blount Island Command.

This role sits at the seam between our software and the operations it runs on. You'll be the person who turns messy, real-world logistics and maintenance data into the signal that drives both better day-to-day decisions for our customers and a smarter product for everyone who comes after them. If you've ever wanted your analytical work to actually change how something operates — not just live in a dashboard nobody opens — this is that job.
