Briefly Describe the Work:  

GITI is looking for a Machine Learning (ML) Engineer with documented expertise to be responsible for researching, developing, architecting, and integrating ML models, algorithms, tools, and techniques into existing or new environments. A candidate who has experience analyzing large datasets with preprocessing data skills, data cleansing, and conducting data integrity and validation actions. A candidate who will design, develop, and integrate ML models and algorithms to address specific problems, such as detection of AI-generated and manipulated imagery and video, etc., and introduce ML and pattern recognition to discover hidden insights. Successful candidates for this role must have critical thinking skills, be creative, curious, resourceful, and have a passion for conveying a wide range of information through research leading to deeper insights. The candidate may work independently but participate in project-wide reviews of requirements, system architecture, and detailed design documents. An ML Engineer must be able to collaborate well with a strong lean-forward attitude to shift knowledge left, deliver well, and produce quality results. The selected candidate will play a critical role in bridging research and operations, integrating advanced algorithms developed by academic partners into operational workflows using NGA data and environments.

• Integrate and operationalize machine learning and computer vision models developed by research partners
• Apply delivered algorithms to NGA-provided datasets and generate results aligned with program requirements
• Evaluate model performance using metrics such as accuracy, precision, recall, ROC/AUC, and localization quality
• Adapt and optimize models for real-world conditions (compression, noise, format variability)
• Work with containerized solutions (Docker or similar) to support deployment and reproducibility
• Translate research concepts, theory, and technical reports into practical implementations and workflows
• Generate technical reports, visualizations, and summaries suitable for NGA stakeholders
• Collaborate with internal teams and external partners to support integration and testing
• Participate in technical meetings and reviews within secure environments (SCIF)

Career level with a complete understanding and wide application of technical principles, theories and concepts. Working under only general direction, provides technical solutions to a wide range of difficult problems. Independently determines and develops approach to solutions. Bachelor's (or equivalent) with 5 - 7 years of experience, or a Master's and 3 to 5 years of experience.

Required Skills:  

• 3+ years of experience in machine learning / computer vision / data science
• Strong proficiency in Python and ML frameworks (e.g., PyTorch, TensorFlow)
• Experience working with image and/or video data
• Ability to understand and implement research-level algorithms from technical papers and reports
• Experience with model evaluation, validation, and performance analysis
• Familiarity with Linux-based environments and version control systems (e.g., Git)

  Desired Skills:  

• Experience with image forensics, deepfake detection, or GEOINT-related analytics
• Experience working with DoD / IC programs or classified environments
• Familiarity with containerization (Docker) and deployment pipelines
• Experience handling large-scale or multi-format datasets (JPG, WEBP, MP4, AVI)
• Knowledge of adversarial robustness, synthetic data generation, or explainable AI
• Ability to bridge theory and implementation
• Strong problem-solving and analytical skills
• Effective communication with both technical and non-technical stakeholders
• Comfortable working in structured, mission-driven environments

  Relevant Certifications:   

• Certifications in machine learning, data science, or related fields (e.g., TensorFlow Developer Certificate, AWS Certified Machine Learning Specialty, IBM Machine Learning Professional Certificate, Google Professional Machine Learning Engineer Certification, IABAC: Certified Machine Learning Expert Certification, etc.
