📋 Description

• Full-stack features from zero to shipped - scoping, architecture, build, iteration • AI-powered product surfaces: intelligent intake flows, real-time constituent assistants, automated case routing, agency operator dashboards • Direct engagement with federal agency stakeholders - translating messy real-world requirements into clean, shippable product • Platform reliability and performance at government scale - real users, real SLAs, no hiding • Code quality that the next engineer will respect: clean, tested, maintainable

🎯 Requirements

• 2–4 years of professional engineering experience - or work that makes the years irrelevant • Deep fluency in React / Next.js and Node.js / TypeScript / Postgres - not just comfortable, but *fast* • AI coding tools (Cursor, Copilot, Claude) are already baked into how you work - you're not planning to explore them someday, you've shipped with them • Something real you've built - a product, an open source project, a thing you couldn't stop working on • You operate well with ambiguity. You don't wait to be handed the answer. • You actually care whether the person on the other end of the screen has a good experience. • You've touched federal, state, or local government tech - or you understand the constraints of building for regulated, high-stakes environments (strong signals) • Cloud deployment experience (AWS, Vercel, GitHub Actions, ECS/Fargate) • Exposure to design systems and component libraries - you know the difference between a component that's *functional* and one that's *right* • You've worked in an early-stage environment where figuring it out *was* the job
