Active Top Secret (TS/SCI) clearance with polygraph is required.
Visionist has an exciting new opportunity for a Full Stack Engineer. In this role, you will help transition a prototype large language model (LLM) framework into a scalable, production-ready system supporting thousands of users. You'll play a key role in architecting a premier, enterprise-level frontier LLM capability for developers, analysts, and leadership within a critical defense organization. You will design and build the infrastructure needed to enable secure, compliant interaction with the LLM, and work closely with the technical lead to migrate prototype tooling into a resilient, production-grade environment on AWS. Additionally, you'll be responsible for developing new features for the LLM's front-end interface-where users submit questions, track conversations, and manage their interactions with the model.
For over 14 years, Visionist has been solving the Intelligence Community's toughest software and analysis challenges. As a 100% employee-owned company, we prioritize our people-your job security is assured. We embed small engineering teams with analysts to rapidly identify and solve mission capability gaps playing a critical role in defending our nation's cyber infrastructure & providing expertise in malware analysis, attribution, mapping adversarial infrastructure, pen testing, and operational planning. Our open-door leadership team fosters a supportive culture, where internal growth and promotion opportunities are the norm. Don't just take our word for it-check out our 4.8-star review on Glassdoor.
