You'll deploy Aslan's platform into high-consequence environments across the U.S. national security community - intelligence, defense, and law enforcement. You own the full arc: scoping, integration, live operation, and customer trust, in settings where ambiguity is the default and the margin for error is thin.
But you are not a band-aid. You are not patching things in the field and handing them back. You are a core engineer who also happens to thrive at the point of contact - someone who ships production code during the week and deploys it into a SCIF on Friday. The expectation is that you contribute meaningfully to the
codebase, not just operate on top of it.
What you'll do
- Contribute directly to Aslan's core platform, writing production code, building features, and extending agent capabilities alongside the engineering team
- Deploy and operate agentic AI systems in sensitive government and defense environments, carrying full technical ownership from integration through live operation
- Serve as the primary technical interface to mission owners and operators, learning their workflows, constraints, and language before they have to explain them twice
- Build rapid prototypes, custom integrations, and field-expedient solutions in hours, not sprints and then bring the best of those back into the core product
- Translate field requirements and edge cases back to the engineering team with precision, urgency, and working code
- Operate independently at customer sites with minimal oversight -- no one is going to hold your hand and no one is going to tell you what to build
- Stand up and maintain field infrastructure across heterogeneous hardware and networking environments using whatever works
- Conduct live demonstrations to senior government and military stakeholders where failure is not a learning opportunity, it's just failure
