Job description
Applied Research Solutions is seeking a Senior Software Engineer. The Senior Software Engineer shall perform work that applies a broad theoretical and practical knowledge of software engineering to support the acquisition process. This role will also require experience in artificial intelligence and requires employee pass background screening for SAP.
The Automated Classification Management Environment (ACME) is a program initiated by the Air Force to modernize the classification management system. The current manual classification infrastructure limits the Department of War's ability to share data efficiently, which is crucial for Joint All Domain Command and Control (JADC2) operations.
The ACME program aims to manage the lifecycle of classification and declassification in accordance with Executive Order 13526 and relevant policies, transitioning from a fragmented manual system to an AI-driven automated solution.
The ACME program will involve several key tasks:
Transitioning from a manual classification framework to an AI-driven automated enterprise solution.
Managing the lifecycle of classified national security information, including original classification, declassification, and releasability processes.
Addressing challenges such as financial strain due to lack of interoperability, static guidance leading to errors, a backlog of records awaiting review, and high error rates in derivative classifications.
Implementing machine-readable data infrastructure and AI tools for automation across various classification levels (Unclassified, CUI, Confidential, Secret, Top Secret, SCI).
Engaging in agile development methodologies for rapid prototyping and integration of new capabilities.
