The posting

About Us At Archangel, we deploy AI and robotics to protect service personnel, military personnel, critical infrastructure, and first responders in large, remote areas. Our mission is to make machines smart enough to become competent teammates instead of just tools, working alongside society’s most exposed workers in remote and challenging locations to protect people, infrastructure, assets and planet at scale.

The role

Joining us as a Forward Deployed Software Engineer, you will have an opportunity to bring state-of-the-art AI to the tactical edge. You will be adapting and deploying vision and language models for compute efficiency and local context, using tools from our existing codebase as well as state-of-the-art tools. This is not a traditional developer role, you will be working directly with the users and traveling to customer sites, building solutions rapidly sometimes on site under difficult conditions.

Skills Needed

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Mathematics, Physics, Machine Learning, or equivalent experience.
  • Strong programming skills, particularly in Python; experience with Java or C++ is also valuable.
  • Experience developing in Linux environments.
  • Experience building solutions with LLMs, generative AI, RAG, embeddings, or other applied AI systems.
  • Strong foundation in machine learning, including evaluation, training, and problem decomposition.
  • Experience with Docker, networking, deployment scripts, and local model-serving tools.
  • Familiarity with PyTorch, Hugging Face, llama.cpp, Ollama, vLLM, or similar frameworks.
  • Familiarity with vector databases such as Milvus, FAISS, Qdrant, Chroma, or similar.
  • Experience building reliable systems with logging, watchdogs, crash recovery, automated testing, CI/CD, and field diagnostics.
  • Ability to quickly understand complex systems and established codebases.
  • Strong troubleshooting and problem-solving skills.
  • Ability to work effectively across software, hardware, UI, and operational teams.
  • Clear written and verbal communication skills.
  • Comfortable owning features end-to-end in a small, fast-moving team.
  • Willingness to travel up to 30% to build, test, deploy, and troubleshoot systems in the field.
  • U.S. Person status.

Nice to Have

  • Experience with NVIDIA platforms, CUDA, or TensorRT.
  • Android or Java development experience.
  • ATAK, TAK Server, TAKChat, CoT, or TAK plugin experience.
  • Experience with mesh networks, distributed communications, low-bandwidth systems, or disconnected environments.
  • Secure software development experience, including authentication, encryption, least privilege, audit logging, and secrets handling.
  • Experience troubleshooting remotely deployed software systems.
  • Rapid prototyping or 3D printing experience.
  • Hands-on experience with electrical or mechanical systems.
  • Knowledge of military systems, operational tactics, or tactical communications.

Benefits

  • Employees can enroll in medical, dental, and vision insurance.
  • Employees are entitled to 15 days PTO per year and 1 week paid time off built into the end of each year (subject to team and business needs).
  • Employees can enroll in Archangel’s 401k plan.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
