About the role

Vannevar is building the future of national security enablement with agentic AI. Our platform tightens the loop from observation to action by giving warfighters cutting-edge analysis tools to make better decisions, faster.

We’re looking for a talented Product Engineer to join the Systems Agents engineering team. This team builds the coding harness, runtime layer, and software integrations to modernize mission-critical software systems, reduce technical debt, refactor legacy architectures, and accelerate software delivery using AI.

Your team will partner closely with customers, designers, product leaders, and forward-deployed engineers to build lasting products where our partners are meaningfully enabled by AI. You’ll be responsible for building novel full-stack agentic workflows that are production-grade, cybersecurity compliant, and have strong evaluations.

This role is ideal for a product-minded software engineer that has deep technical judgment around AI-native product development and can embed closely with a deployed engineering team to fuse product signal from the early prototyping phase into an enduring product vision.

• Customer and mission partnership: Partner with customers, mission owners, designers, and product teams to understand user workflows and drive concrete outcomes aligned with real-world workflows.
• AI-native product strategy: Help define and shape how software engineers, system architects, and program managers across program offices supporting DoW are enabled by AI and agents at Vannevar, balancing ambitious product vision with reliable execution.
