Full job description
NextGen is seeking a highly motivated and technically skilled Edge AI/Model Optimization Engineer to support the deployment, optimization, and sustainment of AI and agentic AI capabilities within edge and tactical computing environments. This role focuses on evaluating, tuning, benchmarking, and operationalizing Large Language Models (LLMs), embedding models, and AI inference services for constrained hardware platforms, including the X9 Spider Mission Computer architecture and other edge compute systems supporting operational missions using ReadiChat. ReadiChat is a mission-focused, agentic AI platform designed to help organizations build, deploy, govern, and scale specialized AI agents for operational workflows. It combines AI agents, workflow orchestration, grounded knowledge, testing frameworks, and enterprise controls into a single collaborative workspace. The ideal candidate will possess expertise in AI model optimization, GPU-enabled edge computing, runtime performance tuning, and operational AI deployment. This role requires close collaboration with AI engineers, systems integrators, mission stakeholders, and operational users to ensure AI-enabled capabilities remain performant, reliable, and mission-effective within disconnected, degraded, intermittent, and low-bandwidth environments.
