Our AI platform is a single, secure, workflow-driven system for the full contracting lifecycle, from opportunity discovery and capture through proposal execution, award, and post-award operations. We’re building Dash, an AI coworker that takes action across every part of the government contracting workflow to help real businesses be more successful. To date, our customers have won over $15B in awards while using GovDash.\nOur engineering team is a tight knit group of incredibly talented people. We’re lean and bias toward action, which allows for a high level of ownership and accountability. We treat our engineering organization as the GovCon AI research lab. We experiment with cutting edge techniques to meet the stringent requirements that the government and our customers demand. The bar is high. We have a unique customer base and complex environments that are FedRAMP certified, support ITAR, or are self-hosted and run in a customer’s cloud. Our team enjoys working with these unique security and compliance constraints and all the complexities that come with them. \nWhat you'll do:\nShip features customers use every day, from design through production.\n\nTalk to customers and use their insight to guide your prioritization and decision making.\n\nBuild agents that call tools, cite their sources, and show their work.\n\nWrite evals and verify outputs that don’t always seem black and white.\n\nTake workflows people run by hand and make them autonomous, with verification, traceability, and observability built in.\n\nImprove how we build: our model harness, our coding agents, our infra, etc.\n\nWho you are:\nEveryone we hire:\nHas high agency. You see a problem and fix it without being asked.\n\nHas a bias to action and works with urgency.\n\nBrings real effort and drive; we can teach you Typescript, we can’t teach you to care.\n\nCares about America and her interests.\n\nThings we look for:\nYou've shipped things we can look at: open source, side projects, a portfolio, or something you launched publicly at a company.\n\nYou've written an eval, compared models against each other, or built with coding agents.\n\nYou've taken a loop a person was running and made it mostly run itself. You can show how you know it works.\n\nYou might be a deep specialist in evals, infra, testing, or systems.\n\nGoing above and beyond:\nYou've owned a large part of a product, or made high-impact contributions across several product areas.\n\nYou've been a lead, done well at a startup like ours, worked on a stack like ours, or written code at big-tech scale.\n\nYou have strong opinions on technical design and product direction, and you can defend them.\n\nYou're fully self-directed. You may lead other engineers.\n\nOur stack:\nOur primary app is written end-to-end in TypeScript and Effect, React and Next.js on the front end, and some Rust in our infrastructure (e.g. agent sandboxes).\n\nPrisma, tRPC, Postgres, Redis, and Temporal for background workflows.\n\nModels from OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google, run through our own harness.\n\nCursor, Linear, Slack, and Google Workspace.\n\nAccess to Claude Code, Codex, Devin, Grok Bot, etc.\n\nWhere you might work:\nCapture: finding and qualifying opportunities, and managing pipeline.\n\nProposal: drafting and reviewing content with AI that cites its sources and satisfies compliance requirements.\n\nContract: deliverables, modifications, and past performance management for active contracts.\n\nPlatform: Dash itself, its sub-agents, automations, and integrations like Microsoft Graph, Salesforce, and Google Drive.\n\nData Library: how customer documents and records feed every AI workflow, with the user in control.\n\nLogistics and comp:\nIn office 4 days a week in Flatiron with 1 flex day from home.\n\nSalary: $160,000 - $200,000.\n\nEquity in a fast growing start up.\n\nHealth, dental, vision insurance.\n\n401K & company match.\n\nPaid time off and off for all federal holidays.\n\nA collaborative and supportive team culture.\n\nDinner on us when you work past 7pm.","description_format":"text","description_chars":4064,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":true,"languages":[]},"benefits":["401k plan","Equity","Vision insurance"],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"United States","iso":"US","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Digital Government","AI Agents"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-11-13T22:47:00Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":86,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.86,"p_room":1,"age_days":0,"expected_fill_days":198,"reasons":["conf:1","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-11-14T05:58:10Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":200000,"is_top_pay":true},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/govdash-software-engineer","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/govdash-software-engineer.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-14T09:53:58Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":11539,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-15T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":3633},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=3633"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fgovdash-software-engineer"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"free","price":{"credits":0,"usd":0},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fgovdash-software-engineer"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fgovdash-software-engineer"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/govdash-software-engineer\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fgovdash-software-engineer"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":4289329}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"govdash.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":4289329},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
