Role Description

• Work directly with clients to understand their problems, gather requirements, and translate needs into technical solutions
• Build and ship features across our product portfolio using AI-assisted development workflows
• Write code alongside AI coding agents—prompting, reviewing, iterating, and owning the final output
• Work across the full stack: frontend interfaces, backend APIs, databases, and infrastructure
• Participate in code reviews, CI/CD pipelines, and quality processes
• Collaborate with a small, senior team that values initiative and moves fast

Qualifications

• You’re a problem solver first—you listen to what clients need, think through the options, and build the right thing
• You communicate clearly and confidently—with clients, teammates, and stakeholders
• You can read, write, and debug code confidently—the language matters less than the fundamentals
• You have experience with some of our stack: Node.js, React or Angular, C#/.NET, PostgreSQL, Python
• You’re comfortable on the command line: Linux, Git, SSH, basic scripting
• You have some exposure to cloud infrastructure (AWS preferred)
• You’ve used or are eager to use AI tools to write code—Copilot, Claude, Cursor, or similar
• You take ownership of your work and don’t wait to be told what to do next
• You’re honest about what you know and what you don’t—and you close that gap quickly

Requirements

• AI-first development team—this isn’t a side initiative, it’s how we build everything
• Mission-driven work—our platforms help service members, students, and workers navigate career transitions
• Small team, real ownership—you’ll see your code in production serving thousands of users
• Prove-it culture—start as 1099, demonstrate your impact, earn a permanent seat
