Staff Platform Engineer, AI

Space is a warfighting domain. True Anomaly seeks those with the talent and ambition to build the technology that secures it.

True Anomaly delivers decisive capabilities for space superiority. We build autonomous spacecraft, advanced payloads, mission software, and space-based interceptors — enabling the U.S. and its Allies to secure the space environment and counter threats from the ultimate high ground.

OUR VALUES

YOUR MISSION

At True Anomaly, we’re building the next generation of space defense. AI-assisted work is the biggest force multiplier available to a company at True Anomaly's stage. It accelerates how we build, how we deliver, and how we scale. We are investing in AI as a core operating capability, not a side experiment, and this role exists to make that investment real.

As a Staff AI Platform Engineer, you will be one of the first hires to build the infrastructure, tooling, and integrations that put AI directly into the hands and workflows of every team across the company. This is not a research role. It is a building role. You will ship capabilities that engineers, program managers, operators, and business teams use every day to move faster and produce better work.

The scope is broad by design. Your work will range from building connectors between AI models and internal systems, developing custom applications for a specific business workflow, and more. You will own platform-level technical decisions about AI providers, tools, and architectures. You will also help build and deliver AI training and enablement for the company, including office hours, brown bags, and hands-on resources.

The platform engineering org, reporting to the Chief Security Officer, will work across the enterprise, from engineering and product to marketing and finance. You will have meaningful autonomy, visibility to executive leadership, and the opportunity to shape how a fast-growing defense technology company operates with AI.

As a technical leader on the team, you’ll be expected to bring a breadth of cross discipline experience from areas like cloud infrastructure, DevOps, systems design, technical decision making, operations, and working across organizational boundaries to move the needle for customers.  You will use your broad skillset to partner with senior leaders to deliver AI capabilities to the company.  You will mentor other engineers to promote their growth.  You will work through significant ambiguity to establish technical requirements and deliver results for internal stakeholders.
