Full Stack Engineer

About Virtualitics Virtualitics is the category leader in AI-native readiness applications for defense government and critical infrastructure. Founded on a decade of Caltech research in partnership with NASA/JPL we are led by scientists strategists and servicemembers united by a single mission to solve the world’s most complex mission-critical challenges with AI. Our Readiness AI solutions deliver operational certainty — giving leaders and operators a clear picture of what’s ready what’s at risk and what to do next. By identifying risks early diagnosing root causes and recommending prioritized actions with transparent explainable AI we help organizations move from data complexity to decision advantage. Behind that impact is relentless innovation. Inventors at heart we hold 15+ U.S. patents and are leading the shift toward agent-driven readiness. But what truly sets us apart is our culture — relentless about results grounded in transparency and driven by compassion for the mission and the people it serves. If you’re motivated by impact inspired by technical depth and ready to build AI that performs where it matters most — you’ll find your mission here. Why this role Unlike engineers on many enterprise platform teams you won't be building one generic product rolled out unchanged to every customer. You partner directly with Machine Learning engineers to scale and adapt novel models to the specific often unique problems a customer is facing — then you build the application layer that puts that model in front of real analysts and decision-makers. It's a chance to work close to the ML research and see your code shape how a customer actually solves a hard problem.
