About the company

LTS is seeking a Senior Agentic AI Software Engineer to build the intelligence behind the platform-the autonomous agents, orchestration layers, retrieval pipelines, reasoning workflows, and backend services that transform complex legacy software into actionable engineering knowledge.

The Agentic AI platform is designed to help engineers understand, analyze, and modernize one of the most consequential legacy software systems still operating today.

Our platform enables engineers to ask questions in plain English and receive explainable, verifiable answers traced directly back to decades of production source code. Rather than replacing engineers, we’re building AI that accelerates engineering through transparency, traceability, and intelligent reasoning.

We’re building an AI-native engineering platform supporting the modernization of mission-critical healthcare systems serving millions of Veterans nationwide. Every response generated by the platform must be explainable, grounded in evidence, and trusted by engineers responsible for maintaining software that millions of people quietly depend on every day.

The platform is designed for deployment across federal enterprise environments and is being engineered to align with FedRAMP security controls, Zero Trust principles, and federal compliance requirements.

The product has executive sponsorship, committed users, and a customer investing in long-term modernization. Our engineering team is intentionally small. Every engineer has meaningful ownership, significant technical influence, and the opportunity to help define how AI transforms software engineering.

We don’t simply build AI-powered software-we build software with AI. This is not another chatbot.

Using LLMs, autonomous agents, AI-assisted development, parallel workflows, and model-driven engineering is simply how we work.
