TS/SCI Required

Accrete is an agentic managed services company: an AI workforce that does high-stakes, judgement-heavy work for government and enterprise clients — at the economics of software, not labor.

At the core is Accrete’s Knowledge Engine, a dynamic context graph that captures an organization’s tacit knowledge, resolves data across silos, and builds a living, auditable ground truth. Expert agents reason against that ground truth to act on complex, high-stakes decisions — not just answer questions about them.

From national security to commercial operations, Accrete delivers the work on one platform, with unlimited expert agents and expert judgement.

What You’ll Do
  • Design, build, and deploy AI-enabled applications used by government and enterprise customers
  • Develop full-stack product features across frontend, backend, APIs, and infrastructure
  • Build and integrate LLM-powered workflows, AI agents, retrieval systems, and semantic search capabilities
  • Collaborate closely with product, design, infrastructure, and applied AI teams
  • Work directly with end users and stakeholders to rapidly prototype and iterate on solutions
  • Optimize application performance, reliability, scalability, and security
  • Contribute to architecture decisions and engineering best practices across the platform
  • Deploy and maintain applications in secure and regulated environments
  • Help shape internal tooling and developer workflows leveraging modern AI-assisted engineering practices
Qualifications
  • Active TS/SCI Clearance required
  • 4+ years of software engineering experience
  • Strong full-stack engineering experience building production-grade applications
  • Proficiency with modern frontend frameworks such as React, Next.js, or TypeScript-based web applications
  • Strong backend development experience with Python, Node.js, or similar technologies
  • Experience building and consuming APIs and distributed systems
  • Familiarity with AI/ML systems, including LLMs, retrieval pipelines, vector databases, or agentic workflows
  • Experience working with cloud infrastructure such as AWS, Azure, or GCP
  • Strong understanding of databases, authentication, and secure application design
  • Ability to operate in fast-paced, ambiguous environments with high ownership
Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience supporting government or defense-related programs
  • Experience deploying applications in classified or air-gapped environments
  • Familiarity with Kubernetes, Docker, CI/CD pipelines, and infrastructure-as-code
  • Experience with graph databases, knowledge systems, or semantic technologies
  • Prior startup or high-growth technology company experience
  • Strong product intuition and ability to work cross-functionally with end users
