Job summary

DEFCON AI is seeking a systems-focused data platform engineer to own the durable view of resolved entities, preserving disagreements and historical evidence in a transparent way.

You will design the storage layer to retain provenance, implement lineage across the graph, and support time-point questions about what we believed and why, in a secure government-cloud environment. Fully remote, with competitive compensation.

Responsibilities

• Own the durable view of every resolved entity, preserving history and disagreements.
• Design and build the storage layer that retains source disagreement and history.
• Implement provenance and lineage across nodes and edges against the platform's evidence-record contract.
• Support point-in-time questions about what we believed about an entity on a given date and what evidence supported it.

Job description

• Own the durable view of every resolved entity on the platform, preserving source disagreement and history.
• Work on a system that ingests records from dozens of disparate sources and provides transparent, explainable recommendations.
• Operate within a secure government cloud environment where the storage layer never quietly erases a disagreement.

Key Responsibilities:

• Design and build the storage layer that preserves source disagreement and history rather than resolving them away at write time.
• Implement provenance and lineage across every node and edge against the platform's evidence-record contract.
• Support point-in-time questions about what we believed about an entity on a given date and on what evidence.

What We Offer:

• Fully remote, results-based environment with flexible work days.
• Competitive salary, bonus, and equity package with 100% employer-paid health coverage.
• Unlimited PTO and 14 weeks of fully-paid parental leave.
