JOB SUMMARY

You’ll deliver new product capabilities across our platform, working across the full stack — from database models to UI components — and owning features end-to-end. AI is central to how you’ll work: you’ll use AI-assisted development tools daily to accelerate your output, build AI-powered product experiences for our customers, and help establish the practices that make our team effective in this new operating model.

RESPONSIBILITIES

- Build and improve APIs, microservices, and frontend experiences that power government agencies at scale

- Own features end-to-end: collaborate with Product and Design to define the problem, build the solution, ship it, and monitor it in production

- Build AI-powered product features — from intelligent data analysis and agent-driven workflows to AI-assisted user experiences that transform how government teams work

- Use AI-assisted development tools (Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, or similar) as a core part of your workflow to accelerate coding, debugging, and documentation

- Produce clean, well-documented code and conduct thorough reviews of both human-written and AI-generated code, with a sharp eye for the subtle failure modes each produces

- Collaborate across the organization to translate business priorities into shipped features that drive customer success

REQUIREMENTS AND PREFERRED EXPERIENCE

- Have 10+ years of professional experience building scalable software in an agile environment

- Have strong experience with modern JavaScript/TypeScript frameworks (React or similar) and backend development

- Are comfortable working across the stack — frontend, backend, data layer — and shipping features end-to-end

- Have built heavily utilized enterprise SaaS software

- Actively use AI-assisted development tools and have a feel for when they accelerate you vs. when they lead you astray

- Have experience building AI-powered product features: agents, AI-driven UX, workflow automation, or retrieval systems (direct ML/model training experience not required)

- Have built APIs, designed database models (SQL and NoSQL), and worked with event-driven patterns

- Thrive in a fast-paced, high-growth environment where new ideas ship daily, staying closely aligned to customer needs and outcomes

- Demonstrated experience working directly with customers to improve product experiences

- A track record of experimenting with new AI tools and bringing effective ones to your team

- Track record of driving team improvement through mentoring and process innovation

- Previous work in govtech, fintech, or regulated SaaS environments

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.
