Overview
We are looking for a thoughtful engineer who wants to build things that matter and is excited to grow with an ambitious, collaborative team.
Important Note: We encourage you to apply even if you don’t meet every listed qualification. That said, we do highly value at least 2 years of real-world experience with both Python backend development and Next.js. If you bring deeper experience and would be a better fit for a slightly more senior role, we’d love to hear from you too.
Eligibility: For compliance, this role is currently limited to U.S. citizens who are currently residing in the United States.
Qualifications
- 4+ years of professional experience in full-stack web development, including at least 2 years of on-the-job experience with both Python and Next.js.
- Experience building and using REST APIs with authentication (OAuth or JWT)
- Exposure to containerized development (Docker), GitHub Actions or similar CI/CD pipelines, and modern testing practices
- Strong communication and collaboration skills, especially in async or remote environments
- Willingness to learn new tools, contribute to team culture, and take ownership of your work
Bonus Points (Nice-to-Haves)
If you’ve worked with any of these before, that’s great, but if not, we’ll help you learn:
- UI frameworks (Tailwind/Shadcn)
- AWS services (like S3, ECS, RDS, Lambda) and Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform)
- Security best practices in cloud environments or compliance-heavy industries
- Applied LLMs or other AI systems in an industry or research setting
- Familiarity with criminal justice systems, government software, or legal tech
