Cognitive AI Engineer; SE

An active TS//SCI clearance with polygraph is required for this role

Bitwise is a leading provider of mission-focused intelligence solutions that advance national security for the Intelligence Community and Department of Defense. We're a small and growing company, so you can expect to hop in on the ground floor with us and be a consequential member of the team. You'll be more than a contract performer for us - you'll also be asked for ideas to improve our company and improve your career, and you'll contribute to our team culture.

We value growth and community above almost all else, so we gather regularly for game nights, happy hours, tech talks, and plenty more. We think you'll like it here!

Remember, Bitwise is not a cult.

Bitwise hires talented engineers who are driven by purpose and who value a culture of technical excellence, growth, and overall wellness. We deliver new and innovative intelligence solutions to our customers at the very forefront of our country's national security missions. And we do it every single day. Our work matters, and so will you.

We ask that every new hire be able to:

• Contribute meaningful thought leadership - if not right away, over time
• Interact with our customers and earn their confidence in your abilities
• Be detailed, even if that means taking a little more time to get it right
• Contribute their ideas and ideals to improve all aspects of our company
• Allow us to invest in their education so we both grow together

You'll join a team delivering mission-critical infrastructure cognizance capabilities that provide unprecedented visibility into what infrastructure was requested, what was actually deployed, and any discrepancies between the two. Your work will directly support subject matter experts as they investigate, create, and iterate on best practices and deployment rules - surfacing cases where requested or provisioned infrastructure breaks those rules and proactively alerting stakeholders to potential issues.

You'll drive end-to-end feature delivery from concept to production, transforming complex data into actionable insights and leveraging AI to accelerate analysis and solution design. You'll design and develop full-stack applications (frontend and backend), apply AI/ML tools to accelerate data analysis and prototype new solutions quickly, and develop ETL workflows to reconcile requested versus realized infrastructure. You'll ensure scalable and reliable data ingestion and processing, collaborate with full-stack engineers on integration and visualization of results, and interact with many stakeholders across the organization as you iterate frequently and deliver impact.
