About this role
AI/ML Engineer The Opportunity: Imagine using artificial intelligence (AI) to improve critical IT operations for integrated warfighting capabilities. As a DevOps engineer, you know how to create efficient and effective solutions so you can quickly deliver the best operational data. Booz Allen is the leading provider of AI services to the nation, and we’re looking for a DevOps engineer with knowledge of AIOps, ML Ops, model ops, and data ops to develop tools and get them into the hands of those who need them most. On our team, you’ll streamline IT operations to enhance platform productivity to improve integrated warfighting capabilities including Agentic AI positioned as a critical enabler for next-gen autonomy and decision-support capabilities. Relate to AI enabled, policy controlled containerized application and data workload management and orchestration required for CDO-L and resilient capabilities. As an experienced engineer, you know that building reliable and scalable AI systems requires strong software engineering practices, automation, and seamless integration across complex, secure environments. Your ability to design and maintain robust AI/ML pipelines, automate workflows, and integrate AI capabilities into production systems makes you an essential part of delivering resilient, mission-focused solutions. We need your technical expertise and problem‑solving mindset to support the development and operationalization of AI capabilities that directly enhance mission resilience, performance, and decision‑making. In this role, you’ll guide the development of mission‑critical AI solutions by building reproducible pipelines, applying automation best practices, and introducing emerging tools that enhance performance and reliability. You’ll collaborate with others including AI Model Engineers, Data Engineers, Cloud Architects, and ISSEs to align AI and ML workflows with infrastructure and security requirements, ensuring seamless integration into production and mission systems.
