About the Job

Requirements

  • Reason about data flow, failure modes, and architecture before syntax.
  • Learn by building and quickly prototype with new SDKs, protocols, or deployment targets.
  • Operate across model inference, container networking, and API design.
  • Build with attention to observability, testing, scalability, and trust.
  • Apply an adversarial mindset to security.

Responsibilities

  • Wire up MCP servers shared across agent swarms, bridging SSE transports with STDIO proxies so the orchestration layer stays fast and composable.
  • Build and extend agent workflows inside the bespoke agent SDK, shaping how agents reason, collaborate, and act on threat models produced by the world model.
  • Design integrations that trigger on git changes, cloud deployments, or ticketing events and close the loop with autonomous remediation.
  • Package and deploy models as hardened, IP-safe containers; compile models to optimized machine code, wrap them in Docker, and ship them without exposing weights.
  • Tune high-throughput inference pipelines that generate structured training data at scale.
  • Build the observability and telemetry layer to measure, grade, and improve work from proof-of-concept triage to system-wide efficacy.
  • Harden the product.

Latent Defense

Edge AI platform for battlefield deployment

Latent AI provides AI technology and edge computing solutions for defense, government, and commercial sectors, enabling AI to run directly on field devices and in environments with limited connectivity. Its core products include the Latent AI Efficient Inference Platform (LEIP), an MLOps toolkit for labeling, deployment, and monitoring, and the Latent Field Tactical Suite (FTS), which pairs rugged hardware with edge AI software to deploy and retrain models on the battlefield without cloud access. It differentiates itself by delivering field-ready, secure edge AI for mission-critical use, supporting GPS-denied operation and holding DoD IL5 certification, along with active involvement in setting industry standards and government contracting. The goal is to enable reliable on-device AI in harsh, contested environments, reducing cloud dependence and speeding updates for defense, security, and critical infrastructure applications.
