## Description

This is an opportunity to join a fast-growing, venture-backed organization scaling next-generation autonomous multi-agent platforms designed for continuous adversarial validation and automated security operations across complex infrastructures. Reporting directly to the executive team, you will build, scale, and lead a specialized federal engineering organization tasked with adapting cutting-edge agentic architectures, continuous self-training loops, and automated execution frameworks for high-security, compliance-heavy government environments.

In this role, you will bridge the gap between advanced AI research and mission-critical enterprise deployments. You will lead high-caliber engineers building resilient, scalable architectures that operate seamlessly under modern security constraints, ensuring our autonomous systems meet the rigorous standards demanded by high-stakes operations.

This role would suit a visionary engineering leader who has navigated the line between advanced machine learning systems and federal compliance, and wants to define how autonomous cyber operations are deployed at scale.

The Role:

 * Build and direct the Federal Engineering team from architecture to deployment.
 * Design secure, scalable multi-agent frameworks for high-compliance federal and defense environments.
 * Translate advanced agentic architectures and planning loops into ruggedized federal solutions.
 * Drive technical alignment with strict security standards, FedRAMP, and GovCloud constraints.
 * Partner with leadership to shape product roadmaps and go-to-market execution.
