• Experience: 5+ years of related experience

• Required skills:

  • Strong experience with Python, open-source ML libraries (e.g., PyTorch, TensorFlow, Scikit-learn, XGBoost, LightGBM), and scientific computing frameworks.

  • Expertise in Data Management best practices, design and engineering for large-scale data systems

  • Ability to translate end-users high-level requirements into detailed analytics to be processed in SIEM, AI/ML custom and cloud-managed solutions.

  • Demonstrated ability to deploy models in air-gapped or on-prem environments, using Docker/Kubernetes/Podman.

  • Hands-on knowledge of MLOps toolchains (MLflow, DVC, Kubeflow), version control (Git), and secure DevSecOps principles.

  • Experience with model optimization and conversion (e.g., ONNX, TensorRT, OpenVINO) for tactical and edge deployment.

  • Proven ability to work in classified or secure Defense environments, following cybersecurity and data stewardship protocols.

  • Experience integrating models into CI/CD pipelines, analytics platforms, or decision support tools.

• Desired Skills:

  • Experience with edge AI hardware (NVIDIA Jetson, Coral TPU, rugged ARM/x86 systems).

  • Knowledge of NLP, computer vision, or reinforcement learning techniques applied to defense.

  • Familiarity with Apache Spark, Hadoop, and distributed data frameworks.

  • Background in real-time messaging protocols (e.g., MQTT, ZeroMQ, ROS) for edge-to-core communication.

  • Familiarity with USCENTCOM operational data systems, networks, and mission requirements.

  • Understanding of Defense AI/ML strategies, ethical AI standards, and responsible deployment principles.

• Required security clearance level: must have a current/active Secret clearance

• US citizenship required due to the Secret clearance requirement

• Must be able to work on the client site in Tampa FL. This is not a remote role.
