## About the role

You can hail a car in 90 seconds, bank from your phone, and chat with an AI at 2am. Then you spend a Tuesday afternoon waiting for your number to be called at the DMV.

## What they're looking for

- 1-3+ 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
- 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
