The Role

This is a rare opportunity to design and build a first-of-its-kind adaptive intelligence platform for mission-critical environments. You’ll operate at the intersection of real-time data processing, multimodal ingestion, adaptive knowledge representation, and composable services—all built for cloud, edge, and on-prem deployment.

It’s a greenfield build with no legacy stack. You’ll own how the core components come together and make early, high-impact decisions that will shape the future of intelligence systems. If you thrive on autonomy, complexity, and building platforms that matter—this role is for you.

What you’ll do

  • Architect and implement infrastructure for a high-performance, adaptive intelligence platform.
  • Build real-time pipelines for ingesting and transforming multimodal data.
  • Design adaptive knowledge representation and ontological reasoning systems.
  • Develop composable services for deployment across cloud, edge, and on-prem.
  • Collaborate with defence domain experts to ground systems in operational reality.
  • Lead technical design while staying hands-on with code and delivery.
  • Ensure systems are secure, reliable, and resilient under demanding conditions.

What we’re looking for

  • Proven experience designing and delivering complex distributed platforms or data pipelines.
  • Proficiency in at least one systems-level language (Python, Rust, Go, or similar).
  • Familiarity with Kubernetes, edge compute, and air-gapped deployments.
  • A strong systems thinker who thrives on autonomy and early-stage decision-making.
  • A collaborative engineer with a pragmatic, growth-oriented mindset.

Apply now and own the future of mission systems.
