Solutions Architect

What You'll Do:

Core Weave is the AI Hyperscaler - an AI-first cloud where every layer is purpose-built for AI workloads. The Global Field Organization owns our technical customer relationships and partners hands-on with some of the most advanced AI teams in the world. Core Weave Federal, the newest team within the GFO, brings this platform to U.S. government agencies, the Intelligence Community, and the Defense Industrial Base - where some of the hardest and most consequential AI deployment problems live: real-time geospatial analysis, intelligence at scale, autonomous systems, and secure multi-agent workflows, all under the toughest compliance constraints in the industry.

We hire field engineers who want to apply the stack powering frontier AI labs to missions that matter for national interest.

The Account Solutions Architect, Federal is the named technical partner for U.S. government agencies across Core Weave's full platform - spanning infrastructure to inference. You'll work alongside federal customers to design AI workloads that meet mission requirements while aligning with federal AI compliance standards. You'll lead proofs of concept end-to-end, partner with Account Executives and federal teams on technical strategy, and serve as the bridge between mission needs and our engineering, security, and compliance organizations.

• Serve as the named technical partner for federal customers across Core Weave’s full platform
• Provide technical guidance on running AI workloads in regulated environments, including FedRAMP, DoD Impact Levels (IL2-IL6), and emerging AI-specific federal standards
• Represent the voice of the federal customer internally — distilling requirements, compliance gaps, and federal use case patterns back to Product, Security, and Engineering
• Build reference architectures and enablement content for federal engagements, raising the technical bar of the federal field organization as it scales

• U.S. Citizenship and an active U.S. government security clearance (Secret minimum; TS/SCI strongly preferred); must be eligible to obtain and maintain higher levels of clearance
• 5+ years in a solutions engineer, solutions architect, or technical field engineering role, with at least 3 years supporting federal customers
• Strong Python proficiency and hands-on experience training, fine-tuning, evaluating, and deploying modern deep learning models, including LLMs; experience designing and deploying production agentic applications for real customer use cases
• Working knowledge of federal cybersecurity frameworks and authorization processes, plus familiarity running AI workloads on at least one major cloud platform (AWS/Gov Cloud, Azure/Government, or GCP/Government)

• Active TS/SCI clearance, ideally with a current CI or Full Scope Polygraph
• Familiarity with deep learning frameworks (PyTorch) and the modern LLM stack (vLLM, Lang Chain, Llama Index)
• Working knowledge of cloud infrastructure for AI workloads, including GPU compute, high-performance networking, and storage
• Experience using Slurm or Kubernetes for ML job orchestration, especially in air-gapped or classified environments
• Background in ML Engineering, AI Engineering, MLOps, or LLMOps with public sector or defense customers

We believe in investing in our people, and value candidates who can bring their own diversified experiences to our teams — even if you aren't a 100% skill or experience match. Here are a few qualities we've found compatible with our team. If some of this describes you, we'd love to talk.

• You're mission-driven — you want your technical work to translate into outcomes that matter for national security, public services, and the country, not just enterprise software adoption
• You see compliance and security constraints as design problems, not blockers — you find satisfaction in making frontier AI actually work inside FedRAMP, classified networks, and air-gapped clusters
• You see the problem through your customer's eyes — their mission constraints, their compliance requirements, and their internal politics — before you reach for a solution
