ABOUT YOU

You might be a great fit if you’re a strong, versatile software engineer who enjoys working across the stack and solving whatever technical problems matter most. You’re comfortable working across frontend and backend—or bring particularly deep expertise in frontend engineering—and have strong software engineering fundamentals. You’re excited about Agentic AI / LLM applications, even if you haven’t worked directly with AI before.

- Eager to join our mission of bringing Frontier Intelligence to the industries and institutions that matter most to human welfare—e.g., healthcare, government, and financial infrastructure

- Coding comes naturally to you, you do it for fun, and you excel at it professionally

- 4+ years building high-quality software, ideally in excellent engineering cultures

- Strong engineering fundamentals and the ability to reason about architecture, abstractions, performance, reliability, and complexity—not just specific frameworks or technologies

- Comfortable working across TypeScript, GraphQL, MongoDB, and Vue; experience with our exact stack is helpful but not required
