Forward Deployed Engineer (SPECTR) - Clearance Required

This position requires an active Secret clearance. LMI is a new breed of digital solutions provider dedicated to accelerating government impact with innovation and speed. Investing in technology and prototypes ahead of need, LMI brings commercial-grade platforms and mission-ready AI to federal agencies at commercial speed.

LMI is seeking a Forward Deployed Engineer (FDE) to deploy, integrate, and extend SPECTR , our mission-focused asset visibility and sensor platform supporting Department of Defense customers. This is a hands-on engineering role for someone who can work directly with users, understand operational problems, and rapidly turn requirements into working technical solutions. You’ll operate at the intersection of software engineering, systems integration, and field delivery—configuring deployments, integrating customer systems and data, troubleshooting across the stack, and building new capabilities when configuration alone isn’t enough.

What you'll do:

• Deploy, configure, integrate, and validate SPECTR in customer environments.
• Work directly with DoD users to understand mission workflows, technical constraints, and operational pain points.
• Integrate SPECTR with customer systems, APIs, databases, data sources, networks, and mission applications.
• Build production-quality integrations, APIs, scripts, automation, and software capabilities to solve field requirements.
• Troubleshoot issues across applications, databases, containers, cloud infrastructure, networking, and connected edge systems.
• Support technical demonstrations, pilots, field tests, and operational deployments.
