In Office Senior NA Artificial Intelligence Government Senior Software Engineer Full Stack

Requirements

• 3-5+ years of full-stack development experience building applications for enterprises and/or consumers. Strong preference for candidates who have worked in high-growth startup environments. • 3-5+ years of full-stack development experience • You're excited to work with the latest AI models, both in the product and in your own development workflow. • You've owned a large product area end-to-end and can point to something specific you shipped and stayed accountable for. • Strong product instincts: you ask questions until you actually understand the customer's problem, not just the ticket description. • You want a role with real technical variance — one week you might be in GIS edge cases, the next in fee-schedule logic, and you find that more interesting than narrower, more repetitive work. • You align closely with our Core Values.

Responsibilities

• Build, test, and ship full-stack features across GovWell’s platform — from intuitive resident-facing interfaces to scalable backend services that power government workflows. • Build the configuration layer that lets one system flex correctly across thousands of different municipal setups, instead of hardcoding logic per customer. • Take ownership of product areas end-to-end — reliable, maintainable, and performant in actual government environments. • Use customer feedback and production data to decide what to fix next, working directly with the municipal staff and residents who depend on it. • Contribute to technical design discussions and code review that shape how the whole engineering team builds, not just your own features.
