About Adelphi: Adelphi builds AI/ML-enabled secure data access and sharing technology for the U.S. intelligence and defense communities, using its Connector software product to enable federated data discovery that cuts intelligence-sharing time from months to minutes.

Adelphi closed a $7M Seed round in August 2025 and has Customers across the Intelligence Community and the Department of War. About the Role: As Senior Software Engineer, you will be making technical direction and architectural decisions for the platform. This role requires a mix of software development and ML Ops practices.

Experience in the national security field is a strong plus to best understand Customer requirements and how that will drive the product roadmap. We are an AI-native engineering team. We expect every engineer to leverage LLMs and AI tooling as a core part of how they design, build, ship, and debug software as an integral, daily extension of their workflow. Clearance Requirement: An active U.S. Government Secret clearance is not required. Candidates must be U.S. citizens and be eligible to maintain and upgrade clearances as the role requires. Candidates need to be excited to work for the Defense and Intel Communities, and to apply AI to real applications for Government. Is this you? We are an AI-native engineering team. We expect every engineer to leverage LLMs and AI tooling as a core part of how they design, build, ship, and operate agentic systems that turn frontier-model capability into mission outcomes. - Technical Leadership: You have 8+ years of experience with meaningful time at Senior level or above.
