Pattern Recognition & Adversarial Detection

• Build spatiotemporal event aggregation pipelines.
• Develop anomaly detection systems over streaming multi-source data.
• Implement clustering and sequence analysis techniques including DBSCAN and Dynamic Time Warping (DTW).
• Design systems capable of detecting adversarial signal manipulation, deception, and data poisoning.
• Develop testing frameworks that improve model robustness in contested data environments.

MLOps & Model Serving

• Deploy production models using NVIDIA Triton Inference Server or comparable infrastructure.
• Build automated model versioning, promotion, A/B evaluation, and deployment pipelines.
• Implement human-in-the-loop feedback mechanisms.
• Maintain reproducible training lineage and auditable model lifecycle records.
• Monitor production KPIs including:
• Calibration accuracy
• Prediction lead time
• False alert rate
• Operational reliability

Engineering Collaboration

• Partner with software engineers, platform engineers, and technical leadership to integrate machine learning systems into production environments.
• Contribute to architecture decisions spanning backend systems, AI infrastructure, and large-scale data processing.
• Help establish engineering best practices around reliability, scalability, testing, and deployment.

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Machine Learning, Statistics, Applied Mathematics, Engineering, or a related technical discipline.
• 5+ years of experience building and operating production machine learning systems.
• Demonstrated experience shipping ML systems into real production environments-not just research or notebook-based experimentation.
• Strong Python software engineering skills with production-quality coding standards.
• Hands-on experience with:
• Bayesian inference
• Survival analysis
• Probabilistic calibration (Platt Scaling, Isotonic Regression, or similar)
• Production experience using:

Our client is an AI-native technology company building a next-generation AI intelligence platform that ingests data from satellite feeds, autonomous sensors, logistics networks, structured enterprise data, and open-source intelligence (OSINT). These diverse data sources are fused into a live knowledge graph that generates calibrated probabilistic assessments in real time.

This is not a chatbot, prompt-engineering, or RAG-wrapper opportunity. The engineering team is building production-grade machine learning infrastructure where prediction accuracy, reliability, and system robustness directly impact real-world decision making.

You’ll join a small, senior engineering team building AI systems from the ground up, with significant ownership over architecture, production deployment, and the future evolution of the platform. The role offers the opportunity to solve complex machine learning problems in an environment where technical depth, first-principles thinking, and engineering excellence are highly valued.
