Job Description

AI/ML Software Engineer — High-Performance & Cloud Systems

Make an Impact Where It Matters Most

At Intelliforce, we build mission-ready technology that helps national security teams move faster and act with confidence. In this role, you will help develop advanced analytics and high-performance computing capabilities that turn massive data streams into actionable insight. The work sits at the intersection of AI and ML, cloud engineering, and scalable software, supporting missions where speed, accuracy, and reliability are essential.

What Makes This Opportunity Stand Out

This role gives you the chance to work on next-generation capabilities with direct mission value. You will help integrate AI and ML into operational systems, build software optimized for large-scale processing and GPU acceleration, and support streaming analytics pipelines that operate in real time. The work blends backend engineering, cloud infrastructure, performance tuning, and collaboration across engineering and mission teams, so the impact is both technical and immediate.

At Intelliforce, your work is visible and your contributions matter. Because we support prime programs, our teams stay close to meaningful mission work with real momentum. Because we are a small business, leadership is accessible, communication is direct, and strong engineering gets noticed. Add in long-term stability, strong benefits, and a people-first culture, and this becomes more than another engineering role. It is a chance to help shape mission capabilities that operate at speed and scale.
