Job Description
Engineer building systems for hard-to-access data essential to national security. Collaborate across teams to enhance collection capabilities in challenging environments.
Responsibilities:
- Master our data and capabilities. We’ve built world-class data collection for some key national security data sets. Understand how we’ve built it, what our differentiators are, and how to take it to the next level.
- Understand our users. You’ll need to understand their missions, challenges, and expectations to build systems that help them.
- Shape our collection approach. You understand how our systems interact with defensive systems, and will develop and implement technical plans that keep high-value data flowing.
- Build and maintain stable, scalable systems. Our customers operate 24x7 and need access to fresh, rich, operationally-relevant data. You will design collection systems that remain stable under sophisticated automated detection regimes.
- Contribute to agentic capability. Ensure the tools you build and collected data is usable by agents (tool-call readiness, retrieval patterns, schemas/metadata, evaluation loops, etc.). Identify gaps where the right data isn’t getting into agent tool calls and coordinate fixes.
Requirements:
- Care deeply about the mission: the data we collect is enabling massive, generational impact across many national security missions.
- Have strong back-end experience and understanding of distributed systems. Prefer typescript/python expertise.
- Understand how anti-abuse, bot detection, fraud, or traffic integrity systems analyze traffic and operate at scale.
- Are data driven and have an eye for instrumentation and monitoring.
- You can reason about how small deviations in protocol behavior, timing, or runtime characteristics propagate into anomaly scores.
- Are technically diverse and can adapt your tool stack quickly.
- Communicate crisply: can write a one-pager that aligns stakeholders, communicates risks, and drives action.
- You prefer structural resilience over reactive tactics.
- Are comfortable making hard prioritization calls with incomplete information.
Benefits:
- Health, dental, and vision insurance
- Remote friendly with WeWork access
- Unlimited PTO, shared downtime during the federal holiday calendar, and company-wide off time at the end of each year
- 401(k) match
- Lifestyle & wellbeing stipends
- Salary top-up during military reserve duty
- Fully paid parental leave
- Child and pet care reimbursement during travel
