Deployment Lead

Modern Intelligence is seeking a Deployment Lead to lead our deployment and implementation for strategic customers in the national security space to include applications in sensor fusion, computer vision, platform integration, electronic warfare, and more.

Modern is using proprietary advances in information and complexity theory to build one AI for defense. Our hierarchical approach provides a dramatic scaling advantage over classical neural networks, naturally enabling very high accuracy on few-shot learning for novel problems, and in many cases, the ability to solve previously-unsolvable problems. We are easing the burden to assess activity in the maritime domain at scale and automating the need for understanding the operating environment.

We’re looking for an experienced and innovative technical project management professional who is results-driven and believes in supporting our defense partners in pursuing creative solutions to expanding problem sets across several environments. You’ll use your ability to leverage technical and customer-facing skills, understand customer requirements, and effectively present solutions that address our customers’ requirements and provide business value. You’ll join us in improving our capability and iterate on solutions to over-deliver on customer needs and impact the greater product roadmap. You’ll help turn ideas into practical reality, and you’ll get your hands dirty at the intersection of far reaching customer experiments and real-world problems. As an early hire, you will have the opportunity and active encouragement to grow into leadership and supervisory roles as the company expands.
Your Accomplishments
  • B.S. Computer Science, Engineering, MIS or equivalent work experience in the private or public sector.
  • 5+ years of related work experience in a technical project management, software implementation, engineering and/or consulting role delivering customized solutions on deployable products.
  • Experienced in translating user stories into product improvements.
  • Seeing ambiguity and uncertainty as opportunities to bring solutions to open-ended problems
  • A utility player: eager, adaptive, and driven to learn more about nuances and subtleties.
  • Demonstrated knowledge of key engineering aspects of the product development lifecycle, including data management, integration, and deployment.
  • Experience with the technical requirements of AI / ML components of a product – namely what AI models can do, and the resources required to achieve different levels of performance.
  • US Citizenship and eligibility for a Secret security clearance is required; an active Top Secret clearance is strongly preferred.
  • Your Impact
  • You will embed with partners in need of our solutions to define success and identify points of friction in support of the mission.
  • Own engagement with customers and stakeholders working by, with, and through them to ensure the seamless integration of our technology into their systems and workflows.
  • Develop domain expertise and leverage your insights with the sales and engineering teams to further product development prototyping.
  • Some travel required

  • Full medical, dental, and vision benefits
  • Discretionary PTO
  • Paid Parental Leave
  • Competitive salary, significant early-stage equity, and bonus opportunities available

    If you’re a brilliant high-level thinker, and don’t want to waste your career on incremental advances; if you’re interested in working with an equally brilliant, dedicated, and close-knit team to develop groundbreaking approaches to ML; and if you want to see those approaches turn into real-world products that are orders of magnitude better than anything else on the market, then come work with us.

    This role requires US citizenship due to federal contracting guidelines. Cover letters are not necessary, but are welcome if they provide meaningful information about you as a candidate that is not conveyed otherwise.
