Join our growing team supporting customer missions as a Full-Stack Software Engineer in Reston, VA (Hybrid) ., We are looking for a full-stack software engineer to build and extend an offline, edge AI data-triage application through a rapid prototype and its redeployment as mission needs evolve . The application runs entirely on a single, standalone device with no network connection. Technical tasks include: * TS/SCI with polygraph * Building and extending the offline, standalone application (Python/Flask) that ingests documents, images, audio, and video and runs locally hosted AI models to translate, summarize, extract entities, and catalog content * Developing the browser-based local user interface: ingest dashboard, tag filters, search, and a natural-language question interface * Integrating and operating on-device AI/ML components, including local open-weight language models, retrieval-augmented generation, a vector store and embeddings, speech transcription, and multimodal vision models * Building the controlled sandbox and data-security features: malware scanning and rule-based detection, file-type allow-listing, a quarantine landing zone, unprivileged containers with read-only mounts, and ephemeral teardown on shutdown * Packaging the application for standalone, offline installation on a zero-trust Linux laptop baseline, including single-package and side-load delivery across enclave boundaries * Maintaining a self-hosted CI/CD pipeline and cutting versioned releases that record model and behavior changes * Validating near-real-time processing against edge data loads from 128 GB to 1 TB across text, image, audio, and video * Supporting redeployment and iteration of the capability after the prototype as requirements change, * Local or offline LLM tooling (e.g., Ollama ) and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) * Vector databases (e.g., ChromaDB ) and sentence embeddings (e.g., all- MiniLM ) * Speech-to-text (Whisper / faster-whisper) and multimodal vision models * Text extraction (Apache Tika) and metadata standards (Dublin Core) * Application security and sandboxing: ClamAV , YARA, unprivileged containers, encryption, role-based access control * Self-hosted CI/CD and Git for source control * Building for air-gapped, disconnected, or edge environments and standalone portable devices ## Related Videos - [But, you're not Facebook](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/378-but-you-re-not-facebook) - [How a Small Team Shrank a Microsoft Monorepo by 94%](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1236-how-a-small-team-shrank-a-microsoft-monorepo-by-94) - [The Resilience of the World Wide Web](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1281-the-resilience-of-the-world-wide-web) - [Docker network without Docker](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1418-docker-network-without-docker) - [Build and Deploy a Fullstack App with Open Source Tooling](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/775-build-and-deploy-a-fullstack-app-with-open-source-tooling) - [Git for Code Reviews](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/429-git-for-code-reviews) ## Related Articles - [Dev Digest 120 - Apple and peers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/455-dev-digest-120-apple-and-peers) - [Dev Digest 132 - Binging WADFlix?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/473-dev-digest-132-binging-wadflix) - [Dev Digest 121 - AI goes offline](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/456-dev-digest-121-ai-goes-offline) - [Dev Digest 137 - AI'm not sure about this](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/485-dev-digest-137-ai-m-not-sure-about-this) - [Dev Digest 131 - AI'm not sure about OSS](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/472-dev-digest-131-ai-m-not-sure-about-oss) - [Dev Digest 138 - Are you secure about this?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/486-dev-digest-138-are-you-secure-about-this)
