Overview

Deliver new product capabilities across the platform as a Staff Software Engineer, working across the full stack from database models to UI components and owning features end-to-end. Use AI-assisted development tools and build AI-powered product experiences for government customers.

What you'll do

  • Build and improve APIs, microservices, and frontend experiences that power government agencies at scale.
  • Own features end-to-end by collaborating with Product and Design to define the problem, build the solution, ship it, and monitor it in production.
  • Build AI-powered product features, including intelligent data analysis, agent-driven workflows, and AI-assisted user experiences.
  • Use AI-assisted development tools such as Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, or similar for coding, debugging, and documentation.
  • Produce clean, well-documented code and conduct thorough reviews of human-written and AI-generated code.
  • Collaborate across the organization to translate business priorities into shipped features that drive customer success.

What you'll need

  • 10+ years of professional experience building scalable software in an agile environment.
  • Strong experience with modern JavaScript/TypeScript frameworks, including React or similar, and backend development.
  • Comfort working across the stack, including frontend, backend, and data layer, and shipping features end-to-end.
  • Experience building heavily utilized enterprise SaaS software.
  • Active use of AI-assisted development tools and the ability to judge when they accelerate development versus lead you astray.
  • Experience building AI-powered product features such as agents, AI-driven UX, workflow automation, or retrieval systems; direct ML/model training experience is not required.
  • Experience building APIs, designing SQL and NoSQL database models, and working with event-driven patterns.
  • Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, high-growth environment where new ideas ship daily while staying 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.
  • A track record of driving team improvement through mentoring and process innovation.
  • Previous work in govtech, fintech, or regulated SaaS environments.
