Job summary

Booz Allen Hamilton is seeking a Senior AI/ML Engineer to design, develop, and deploy advanced AI/ML solutions across mission systems. You will work on NLP/LLMs, computer vision, and end‑to‑end data pipelines in a production environment with a focus on security and reliability.

You will collaborate with cross‑functional teams to deploy scalable AI services, maintain model quality, and deliver robust mission impact while adhering to operational requirements and this role’s TS/SCI clearance

Qualifications

• 5+ years of ML model development including NLP/LLMs, CV, deep learning, generative AI, or reinforcement learning.
• Experience deploying AI/ML capabilities to operate in a microservice stack.
• Experience developing or maintaining production‑grade APIs, microservices, or distributed systems.
• Experience with data processing frameworks and scientific computing libraries such as NumPy, Pandas, PyTorch, TensorFlow, or scikit‑learn.
• Experience designing, configuring, or deploying software systems in operational environments.
• Experience with CI/CD tooling, source control such as GitLab, and containerization technologies such as Docker, Podman, or Kubernetes.
• Active TS/SCI clearance; willingness to take a polygraph exam.
• Bachelor's degree in a STEM field.

Responsibilities

• Design, develop, and implement AI/ML models, including NLP, LLM‑based pipelines, deep learning architectures, and computer vision models, aligned to mission requirements.
• Build and optimize scalable data pipelines to support training, evaluation, and continuous improvement of models.
• Develop end‑to‑end production systems, including microservices, APIs, automation frameworks, and cloud‑native or edge‑deployed AI services.
• Integrate AI/ML capabilities into operational environments with attention to security, reliability, observability, and performance.
• Conduct model optimization, tuning, versioning, and AB testing to ensure robust mission impact.
• Apply modern software engineering patterns, including Python, Java, Scala, and Rust, microservices, and distributed systems, as consistent with Booz Allen’s AI/ML engineering frameworks.
• Collaborate with multi‑disciplinary teams to identify mission needs, gather requirements, and define technical approaches.
• Prepare technical documentation, contribute to design reviews, and support customer-driven requirements.
