Department Summary:MITRE's Multi-INT AI Engineering Department effectively combines the deep technical knowledge required to develop capabilities with critical domain knowledge to harness and shape those capabilities to meet multiple sponsor mission needs. We have the technical depth and breadth to thrive in mission focused R&D/S&T organizations and the well-earned sponsor credibility to execute work programs relating to research, analysis, prototyping, T&E, etc.
We seek motivated individuals who are interested in applying sensors, AI/ML systems, and data engineering for the exploitation of multiple data types to include remote sensing data. Remote Sensing data refers to those collected using infrared imagery (OPIR), hyperspectral imagery (HSI), radar (SAR/GMTI), full motion video (FMV), Wide Area Motion Imagery (WAMI), and 3D data from a range of sources.
Roles & Responsibilities:- Provide technical leadership by applying data analysis and AI techniques to solve and enhance the sponsor's mission.
- Select and evaluate AI models to solve a wide variety of sponsor problems (forecasting, classification, triage). Tailor models for use in production and develop methods to evaluate their effectiveness.
- Design and implement data normalization and ETL functions to prepare data for studies and further analysis.
- Define and execute technical studies of data analysis including hypothesis formulation, experiment design and experiment execution with small teams.
- Propose technical approaches and prototype solutions to validate study concepts and demonstrate mission value.
- Document and discuss prototypes and study results and to formulate technical approach to transition into wider production use.
Basic Qualifications:- Typically requires a minimum of 3 years of experience in artificial intelligence with a Bachelor's degree in a relevant field; or 1 years and a Master's degree; or a PhD with 1 years' experience; or equivalent combination of AI-related education and work experience.
- Hands-on experience fine-tuning, deploying, and evaluating large language models and/or Agentic AI
- Demonstrated skills with Python and standard AI frameworks such as HuggingFace, PyTorch, and/or MLFow.
- Ability to work independently to learn new technologies, methods, processes, frameworks/platforms, and systems
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills to articulate challenging technical concepts to both lay and expert audiences
- Active TS/SCI with Full Polygraph clearance
- Must have an active Top Secret/SCITop Secret/SCI with full scope polygraph U.S Government issued Security Clearance. Per the U.S. Government's eligibility requirements, you must be a U.S Citizen to be considered for a security clearance.
- This position requires a minimum of 4 days a week on-site
Preferred Qualifications:- Advanced degree in computer science, engineering, or related disciplines
- Track record of successful deployment of AI/ML systems or components that have been used by customers or stakeholders outside of a lab/experimental setting
- Experience leading small and medium-sized teams to solve complex technical challenges
- Experience deploying robust, optimized solutions through MLOPs pipelines
- Experience utilizing in an HPC environment for training large models
