Job Description

Machine Learning Engineer

Adelphi

Role Description The Machine Forward Deployed Learning Engineer position requires a mix of software development, LLM Ops, and SecDevOps practices, resulting in an exciting, fast-paced engineering role. This role requires the ability to contribute to solutions across the full LLM stack, from the OS, storage, and network up to the API and transport layer. Experience in the defense or intelligence fields is required. You will contribute to end-to-end delivery of agentic, full-stack systems built on top of frontier models, from first prototype to stable production, embedded alongside our defense and intelligence customers. Location: This role is based in the DC/Metro area; remote candidates will be considered with 25% travel expected. Clearance Requirement: An active U.S. Government clearance is strongly preferred, but we are open to clearance eligible candidates. Qualifications - Experience in the defense or intelligence fields. - Ability to leverage LLMs and AI tooling as a core part of design, build, ship, and operate agentic systems. - Daily use of AI coding tools (Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot). - Working knowledge of modern agent frameworks and SDKs (LangGraph, OpenAI Agents SDK, Claude Agent SDK, AutoGen, or similar). - Familiarity with MCP or similar LLM integration frameworks. - Clear understanding of AI limitations and when to verify AI-generated output. Requirements - Contribute to end-to-end delivery of agentic, full-stack systems from prototype to production, embedded alongside defense and intelligence customers. - Build and deploy ML services leveraging LLMs, embeddings, RAG, and agent orchestration into production environments, including classified and air-gapped ones. - Work directly with customers to understand problems, support delivery sequencing, and ship AI applications under real-world constraints. - Help codify repeatable patterns into reusable tools and building blocks that help the team ship faster. Bonus Points - Familiarity with infrastructure management (Docker, Kubernetes, AWS). - Exposure to encryption, authentication, Linux systems administration, DevOps, or SRE. - Any production experience with agentic services or forward-deployed AI applications. - Experience in a customer-facing or embedded delivery role. - Exposure to federated or privacy-preserving data architectures. Benefits - Healthcare coverage: 100% employee premium and 50% dependents premium coverage of a platinum-level plan. - 401K with 2% company match. - $500 monthly Physical and Mental Health reimbursement program. - Unlimited time-off policy. - Competitive salary and equity compensation. - Opportunity to work on impactful projects in the national security sector. - Career growth and leadership opportunities in a dynamic, innovative environment.

• Own the offline dataset pipeline — design, implement, test, and deploy Cloud-based pipelines that convert logged multi-sensor data into VLM/VLA training datasets, spanning geometric labels (3D/2D detection, tracking, segmentation, depth) through semantic, scenario-level, and action/trajectory-grounded annotations. • Build VLM-assisted auto-labeling — develop open-vocabulary detection, dense captioning, semantic enrichment, and scene/scenario description generation that move beyond closed-set bounding boxes, using foundation models to scale annotation and cut manual labeling cost. • Generate reasoning-grounded labels — produce language-grounded reasoning and chain-of-causation style annotations, temporally aligned to ego-motion and trajectories, to support VLA training and explainable driving behavior. • Mine and curate the long tail — surface rare, difficult, and high-uncertainty scenarios, and build curated datasets that measurably improve downstream VLM/VLA model metrics rather than simply adding volume. • Close the data flywheel — define dataset schemas, quality metrics, and validation; track auto-labeling quality against model requirements; route model failures back into re-labeling and retraining loops. • Partner with the end-to-end model team — co-define dataset specifications with VLM/VLA model developers, own the quality bar and delivery cadence, and operationalize a continuous dataset delivery loop into their training pipelines. • Scale on cloud infrastructure — build distributed, reproducible pipelines using columnar data formats and distributed compute, with disciplined software practices, version control, and documentation. • Lead and mentor — serve as project lead, guide less-experienced engineers, run design reviews, set coding and annotation standards, and drive alignment across team interfaces to the rest of the organization. • Stay current — track the latest advances in multimodal models, auto-labeling, and end-to-end autonomous driving, and translate relevant research into production data systems.
