Our customers rely on Exiger’s platform to support mission-critical operations — often beginning with open-ended questions such as:
“Where are vulnerabilities hidden in our supply chain?”
“How can we proactively detect and mitigate risk before it impacts readiness?”
“How do we modernize fragmented legacy systems into a unified intelligence capability?”
As a Forward Deployed AI Engineer, you will combine engineering depth, AI/ML expertise, and mission understanding to deliver scalable, production-grade solutions that drive measurable real-world impact.
You will operate at the intersection of engineering, data science, and mission delivery — embedded alongside customer stakeholders and internal teams. Working in small, high-trust teams, you will own projects end-to-end — from architecture and data ingestion through model deployment, integration, and executive-level briefings.
You will not just build models — you will ensure they function reliably in production, under real-world operational constraints.
What You'll Do
Design, implement, and maintain scalable data pipelines for ingesting, cleansing, and transforming supply chain and risk-related datasets.
Apply AI/ML methods to enhance predictive analytics, anomaly detection, and risk identification within SCRM workflows.
Integrate AI-driven analytics into Exiger’s SaaS platform through APIs, data services, and system interfaces.
Partner with program directors, data scientists, and software engineers to operationalize models into production systems.
Cleanse and enrich customer provided data.
Develop and maintain dashboards, data visualizations, and reporting solutions to enable decision-making by senior government stakeholders.
Ensure quality, integrity, and security of data across all program implementations.
Support delivery of transformation projects by modernizing customer data environments and enabling advanced risk analytics.
Contribute to agile delivery cycles, from design and testing through deployment.
Periodically provide updates on data pipelines, AI performance metrics, and customer value realization.
