The posting

Location: Remote (US) — New York / Tri-State Area preferred

Travel: 40% – 50% (Key hubs include Washington, D.C., Tampa, San Diego, and New York)

Clearance: Active US Security Clearance required (TS/SCI strongly preferred; active Secret considered)

Compensation: $170,000 – $220,000 Base Salary + Equity + Comprehensive Benefits

Work Authorization: US Person required (US Citizen, Permanent Resident, Refugee, or Asylee; no visa sponsorship available)

About the Role

We are seeking a Senior Full-Stack Product Engineer to join a high-priority, newly funded product engineering team developing an agentic AI platform that processes large-scale datasets for real-time intelligence delivery.

In this hybrid product engineering and forward-deployed engineering (FDE) role, you will bridge the gap between software development and real-world deployment. You will work directly with end-user operators in sensitive environments, translate high-stakes operational requirements into production-ready software, and build full-stack features end-to-end.

Key Responsibilities

  • Full-Stack Development: Design, build, and deploy core product capabilities across a modern tech stack (React, Python, PostgreSQL, Redis, and S3).
  • Forward-Deployed Problem Solving: Partner directly with defense and intelligence operators on-site to identify unmet operational needs and rapidly turn them into robust product features.
  • Enterprise System Integration: Deploy, integrate, and harden applications within sensitive government IT environments, including enterprise data platforms, Identity and Access Management (IdAM), SIEM tools, and cross-domain solutions.
  • End-to-End Feature Ownership: Own development lifecycles from architecture and prototyping through field testing, user acceptance, and continuous operational support.
  • Field Deployments: Travel up to 40–50% to operational test beds and customer installations across primary defense hubs.

Requirements

Mandatory Qualifications

  • Active Security Clearance: Current, active US Security Clearance (TS/SCI strongly preferred; candidates holding an active Secret clearance may be considered). Clearances in process cannot be accepted.
  • US Personhood: Must qualify as a US Person under federal export regulations without sponsorship.
  • Experience: 4 to 10 years of professional software engineering experience as a full-stack or product-focused individual contributor.
  • Government / Defense Exposure: Demonstrated track record building, testing, or deploying software tailored to US government, defense, or national security missions.
  • Modern Full-Stack Capabilities: Hands-on proficiency with modern web frontends (React) paired with relational and key-value datastores (PostgreSQL, Redis) and object storage (S3).
  • Integration Expertise: Practical experience integrating software with government enterprise infrastructure (IdAM, SIEM, data platforms, or secure enclaves).
  • Communication & Stakeholder Presence: Exceptional interpersonal and technical communication skills with direct experience collaborating with non-technical stakeholders and military/civilian operators.
  • Education: Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related technical discipline (or equivalent practical technical foundation).
  • Mobility: Willingness and ability to travel 40% to 50% domestically.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Practical experience with DoD Risk Management Framework (RMF) or deploying to AWS GovCloud / secure cloud enclaves.
  • Balanced full-stack proficiency with particular strength in frontend architecture and user workflow design.
  • Hands-on exposure to agentic AI workflows, LLM application development, or large-scale data retrieval pipelines.

Benefits

Incentive Equity: Meaningful equity grant in a well-capitalized, profitable enterprise.

Benefits: Full health, dental, and vision coverage, 401(k) retirement plans, flexible PTO, and comprehensive travel coverage.

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.
