- A track record that includes at least 3 years at a strong organization or program and at least 2 years at an early-stage startup.

- Experience building full-stack software that directly addresses user problems in production.

- Experience working directly with end users and translating their needs into technical solutions, including tailored analyses or integrations.

- Comfort with high autonomy, ambiguity, and shifting priorities.

- Interest or experience in government, law enforcement, criminal justice, defense, or other regulated and sensitive domains is valuable.

- Willingness to support FBI background check and CJIS clearance processes as needed.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
