The role will support Nou Systems Inc in Huntsville, Alabama within the Technical Solutions Division and JSTC2 Team. The AI Engineer will prototype generative-AI-powered capabilities and integrate LLM-based functions into Government Off-the-Shelf software used for warfighting training exercise participants.

Onsite Location and Team

Location: Huntsville, AL (onsite). You will work as part of a multidisciplinary software team spanning a web-based front end, a large-data-management back end, and on-prem LLM-powered data exploration.

Key Responsibilities

Prototype new LLM-powered capabilities and integrate them into the existing software.
Contribute to user-facing capabilities delivered on a 10-week cadence.
Help elicit end user needs rather than working solely from pre-defined requirements managed externally.

Evaluate the changing AI landscape and support informed decisions about new technologies and frameworks through analysis of alternatives.
Mentor and lead technical contributors to act as a force multiplier for the team.
Support software architecture development in coordination with the Chief Architect.

Experience: 5+ years of professional experience in AI/ML engineering, including 2+ years focused on LLMs or similar generative models.

Citizenship: U.S. Citizen.
Proficiency in Python + PyTorch, generative AI frameworks (LangChain, LlamaIndex), and vector databases (ChromaDB).
Ability to develop software as an individual contributor without agentic coding support.
Experience producing production code that is modular, unit tested, supports integration and end-to-end testing, and is maintained in source control (Git + GitLab).
