Vannevar builds agentic AI for 21st-century conflict, pre-trained for national security missions and delivering decision advantage. Backed by General Catalyst and Felicis.
About the role
Vannevar builds an agentic system that helps operators make sense of high-volume mission data and act with greater speed and confidence in sensitive government environments. The system analyzes millions of mission-relevant records to surface high-fidelity recommendations, near-real-time analysis, and decision-ready outputs while integrating into the systems and workflows customers already use.
What they're looking for
- Own mission problems end-to-end: understand the user and workflow, determine what good looks like, design the technical approach, build it, deploy it, and own the outcome
- Architect, build, and own the direction for a product deployed directly to customer environments in support of mission-critical use cases
- Work directly with users and senior technical stakeholders to understand mission needs, constraints, existing systems, and where software can have the greatest impact
- Own end-to-end technical delivery for new mission workstreams, from requirements gathering and system design through implementation, deployment, and sustainment
- Write substantial production code across the stack and improve the product's capabilities, performance, and scalability
- Collaborate with cross-functional partners — including engineers, product designers, and mission domain experts — to plan and deliver complex software features
More about this role
Vannevar builds AI systems for the Department of War's most consequential missions. We have 125 deployments across every branch and combatant command spanning our core platform and five distinct products. An an example of how we work, when major combat operations started with Iran, we fielded a new product supporting 24/7 operations and 9,000+ users in three months.
How we build is our advantage: we deploy forward with the people who own the mission. Our engineers, product team, and CTO deploy forward to the point of friction, including visiting units in Ukraine. We focus on embedding directly with operational units supporting great power competition with China, combat operations with Iran, and counter-narcotics missions.
