Tagup builds Manifest, an AI logistics platform designed for high-stakes military and government operations. The stack—PyTorch, TensorFlow, Claude, FastAPI on Kubernetes across AWS/Azure/GCP—reflects a production-grade ML system built for scale and compliance. The hiring profile is heavily engineering-focused (14 of 16 open roles, mostly senior-level), centered on infrastructure-as-code, data ingestion at billions-of-records scale, and sub-second AI inference latency. Active projects signal a platform architected for FedRAMP compliance and mission-critical availability (99.99% uptime), not early-stage exploration.

Tagup is a defense technology company headquartered in New York with MIT roots (CSAIL Alliances member) focused on logistics optimization for U.S. military and government operations. The Manifest platform combines machine learning with proprietary reinforcement learning to automate complex supply-chain and asset-positioning decisions in contested or data-sparse environments. The company operates across multiple verticals: predictive maintenance, inventory optimization, readiness optimization, and AI-driven aviation systems. At 11–50 employees, Tagup is scaling engineering capacity to handle platform demands—data ingestion at scale, compliance frameworks (ATO, FedRAMP), and core architecture evolution—while building early sales motion around government and defense contracts.
PyTorch, TensorFlow, Claude (via Langchain), and MLflow. The stack also includes FastAPI for serving, Pandas for data processing, and Kubernetes for orchestration across AWS, Azure, and GCP.
Core infrastructure (Terraform, Kubernetes, AWS security), AI agent development, data ingestion at scale, predictive maintenance, supply chain optimization, and FedRAMP/ATO compliance automation. Projects emphasize sub-second latency and 99.99% availability for mission-critical operations.
