Careers Lmi, Remote
Overview
Build technology where the mission happens.
We are seeking a Senior Forward Deployed Engineer to embed directly with mission users and own the technical solution from mission need through production deployment. This is a hands-on role for an engineer who enjoys solving hard, ambiguous problems—and wants to see the technology they build make a difference in the real world.
You will work alongside mission users to understand what is actually happening on the ground, identify opportunities where technology can make a meaningful difference, and turn those insights into working solutions. You’ll integrate advanced technologies—including modern AI/LLM capabilities—into operational workflows, build and deploy new software capabilities, and iterate directly with users until the solution delivers measurable mission impact.
This is not a role where you simply receive requirements and hand off code. You will be close to the problem, close to the user, and accountable for the outcome. You’ll have the autonomy to experiment, make technical decisions, prototype ideas, and take the solutions that work all the way into production.
This position requires an active Secret clearance.
Solve real problems. Build what matters. See the impact.
Forward Deployed Engineers sit at the intersection of engineering, users, and mission. You’ll have the opportunity to work with emerging technologies, operate in environments where the answer isn’t always obvious, and move ideas from whiteboard to working capability quickly.
The ideal candidate is curious enough to ask “What if?”, technical enough to figure out “How?”, and mission-focused enough to know “Why does this matter?”
If you enjoy having a problem in front of you rather than a rigid set of instructions, this is an opportunity to do some of your most meaningful engineering work.
