At Accenture Federal Services (AFS), we use machine learning to solve high‑impact, mission‑critical problems across defense, national security, public safety, and federal civilian sectors. Our 13,000+ colleagues deliver production‑grade AI systems where reliability, traceability, and responsible use are non‑negotiable.
As part of our ML Engineering community, you’ll design, build, and deploy models that operate at federal scale improving outcomes for millions of people. You’ll grow through hands‑on delivery, certifications, and access to the latest tooling and training. We ship in weeks, not quarters, and we measure success through model performance, reliability, safety, and cost efficiency.
Confidentiality matters: We don’t share mission or customer specifics in public postings. If you advance, we’ll provide program‑level details as appropriate during the interview process.

- Design, develop, and maintain end-to-end ML pipelines, including data ingestion, feature engineering, training, validation, deployment, and monitoring.
- Implement MLOps frameworks and best practices, including CI/CD pipelines, model versioning, model registries, feature stores, and automated retraining workflows. Deploy, monitor, and optimize machine learning solutions using cloud platforms and containerized technologies such as Docker, Kubernetes, SageMaker, Vertex AI, or Azure ML. And the last one.
- Collaborate across engineering and data teams to integrate scalable ML solutions into mission-critical applications while monitoring performance and addressing model drift.
Here’s what you need:
