About this role
Job Description:
Shield AI is seeking an experienced System Architect to own the architecture of Hivemind Forge – an AI development ecosystem and the segment of Hivemind that enables developers to build, train, tune, evaluate, optimize, and deploy learning-based autonomy solutions. You will join the Systems Engineering, Integration, & Test (SEIT) team in the Hivemind Enterprise organization.
This ecosystem combines developer tools, APIs, data infrastructure, simulation, AI/ML workflows, and GenAI-enabled automation to accelerate the delivery of autonomous capabilities using Vision-Language Models (VLMs), Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models, world models, foundation models, and other applied AI technologies.
As the responsible architect, you will define the comprehensive architecture for this product area, maintain architectural integrity across development teams, and ensure the ecosystem can operate across enterprise cloud, high-performance computing, and secure or disconnected deployment environments. You will work at the intersection of software architecture, AI/ML, data architecture, systems engineering, developer experience, and Generative AI-enabled engineering to create an ecosystem that dramatically reduces the time required to transform mission needs and data into deployable, intelligent autonomous capabilities.
