the posting
Mission Engineers (MEs) are at the tip of the Spear leading customer engagements and understanding the pain points and issues within current technology. You will design end to end solutions to solve some of the hardest problems within the national security enterprise.
MEs deploy modern technical solutions to solve problems that people are directly affected by. Projects can start with simple questions, like "How could AI help me analyze intelligence reports better" or "How do I write an Operational Report faster?" MEs lead the development of solutions to the questions, from high-level system design and prototyping to application development and data integration. As an ME you leverage Spear AI's core product offering, open source technologies, and whatever you can build to succeed.
Your work will start with the IC at an AI Task Force -- an elite team modeled after Project Maven -- which has the mission to provide the IC with foundational, enterprise-wide AI capabilities. You will be on the ground floor of this organization as it creates the future technology that will power the US Intelligence Community.
You'll learn how to understand and deconstruct complex problems and analyze the tradeoffs in any solution you propose and create. You'll learn how to apply Artificial Intelligence to massive data sets, and along the way you'll learn new technologies, techniques, and languages. You'll work autonomously and make decisions independently, sometimes alone and unafraid, but often with a community that will support and challenge you as you grow and develop.
