AI Engineer
Aslan, Washington, DC Metro Area
The role
We're not just repackaging commodity capabilities and building workflows. Aslan is pushing the boundaries what agents can accomplish for the highest stakes national security priorities. To remove the bottlenecks that keep us outnumbered and outmaneuvered by digital adversaries, we're hiring an AI engineer that lives and breathes the frontier of agent scaffolding, orchestration, and multi-agent systems.
You'll build the cognitive architecture that enables AI agents to force multiply their human counterparts, taking domain-specific autonomy beyond what off-the-shelf models can robustly accomplish. You'll figure out how frontier models can be used in heterodox ways and deploy the cutting-edge in post-training to take them in directions that were never previously imagined. Most importantly, you'll go beyond mere clever chaining and compound systems to build foundational improvements in task horizon to give the operators on the frontlines the leverage they deserve and the scale they need.
