Job Description & How to Apply Below
Our client has been building digital products for government agencies and businesses for over 20 years. The work is technical, the clients are high-visibility, and the team is small by design. Everyone here owns their work.
This role is for a senior full-stack developer who is comfortable making technical decisions, working directly with clients and stakeholders, and mentoring the engineers around them. AI integration is a real part of this work, not a checkbox.
What you'll do- Lead full-stack development across React, Next.js, Node.js, and Type Script
- Design and integrate RESTful APIs, GraphQL endpoints, and AI‑assisted features including LLM‑powered workflows and RAG
- Work directly with clients to translate requirements into technical solutions
- Make architectural decisions and hold accountability for them
- Mentor junior engineers on modern JavaScript and AI‑augmented development practices
- Evaluate and adopt AI‑assisted tools (Copilot, Claude, automated testing) where they actually improve the work
- Contribute to CI/CD pipelines, cloud architecture, and Dev Ops practices
Required:
- 7+ years of software engineering experience, bachelor's degree or equivalent
- 5+ years of professional JavaScript/Type Script development, front‑end and back‑end
- Strong React or Next.js experience building responsive, production‑grade interfaces
- Node.js proficiency with frameworks like Express or Fastify
- Experience designing and consuming REST APIs and/or GraphQL
- Solid understanding of relational or No
SQL databases (PostgreSQL, MongoDB, or similar) - Git and modern CI/CD workflows
Preferred:
- Prior government contracting experience
- Cloud platform experience (AWS, Azure, or GCP)
- Hands‑on experience integrating LLM APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic, Azure AI) into production apps
- Familiarity with RAG, prompt engineering, or agentic workflows
- Docker, Terraform, Git Hub Actions
- Section 508 / WCAG accessibility standards
- Agile methodologies
