Founding Engineer at EffiGov

As a founding engineer and first full-time hire, you’ll be a cornerstone in building out the EffiGov platform and team. You’ll ship features, design scalable architectures, implement cutting edge tools and research, all in service of delivering for our early customers by any means necessary . You strike the right balance between scrappiness and elegance - we do everything manually or hardcode at least twice, only building the right processes or abstractions if there’s a third time. As the team grows, you’ll also be a mentor and a leader for new engineering hires. This role is based in San Francisco, CA, in person. EffiGov is a technology company dedicated to improving the way our cities work. Our team combines years of experience shipping AI applications at top tech companies with long track records of local and federal civil service. We believe that the most foundational institutions in our country—local governments that provide critical services to millions of Americans every day—are severely underserved by current AI technology and distribution, and we work every day to change that.
