Software Engineer, Agent Harnessing

Scout AI is developing Fury, the first robotic foundation model for defense. As a Software Engineer on the Agent Harnessing team, you will build the core architecture that allows AI agents to interact with and control complex, real-world physical systems.

Responsibilities:

• Designing and advancing the agent harness (agent loop, tools, prompts, execution environment, capabilities) used across Scout AI's agentic stack
• Integrating fullstack software with physical hardware systems and AI agents—ensuring robust, low-latency communication across complex pipelines
• Building simulation environments and video-game-like frameworks that allow agents to be tested and trained before physical deployment
• Owning the connectors between AI models and real-world systems—the layer that translates model output into physical action
• Fine-tune frontier AI models and build the data acquisition pipelines that feed the training infrastructure powering our agents
• Work shoulder-to-shoulder with warfighters to turn capability requests into production-ready agentic systems — fast
