About the Role
Join a team delivering AI-native software for state, local, and federal government clients. You will own technical delivery from initial discovery through deployment, helping modernize legacy systems and improve public services.
What You'll Do
Meet with government clients to understand needs, design solutions, build software, and deliver projects end to end.
Use AI coding tools such as Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, and Factory in your daily development workflow.
Build reusable components, data models, and workflows that can support future deployments.
Work directly with non-technical stakeholders, balancing client collaboration with hands-on building.
Travel occasionally to client sites, approximately five days per quarter.
What We're Looking For
One to five years of experience as a forward deployed engineer or customer-facing software engineer.
Experience owning a technical deployment from initial build through customer adoption and post-deployment maintenance.
Hands-on experience with AI coding tools as a core part of your daily workflow.
Strong software engineering skills across backend, frontend, data modeling, and workflow development; familiarity with AWS and legacy data systems is relevant.
A degree in computer science, engineering, or an equivalent technical field, or comparable technical experience.
Experience in an early-stage technology company or in public sector, govtech, or government-facing work is helpful.
Compensation & Benefits
Base salary: $170,000 to $220,000 annually. Visa sponsorship is not available.
Location
On-site in New York, New York, five days per week, with occasional travel to client sites.
