Requirements and responsibilities
Join Verdance and help improve government digital services.
About the role:
You’ll join a growing company working with a variety of government agencies to build high-quality digital public services. Your initial project placement will be on a small team working in Congress to modernize tools used by legislative teams to manage critical budget processes.
The role will be hybrid on-site, with an anticipated two days a week onsite in an office of the House of Representatives, so living within a reasonable commute of the Capitol area is a must. We're anticipating that this team will be significantly less constrained in shipping velocity than many executive branch tech teams, so we're looking for someone with a scrappy get-it-done mindset.
Here are our must-have priorities for this role:
* 5+ years of full-stack software engineering experience.
* Substantial experience with at least two of JavaScript, Python, Ruby, or Java, and enthusiasm to pick up new tools and languages as needed.
* Enthusiasm to learn the ins and outs of complicated legislative processes and participate with product and design to co-define a modernization approach.
Here’s what we hope you bring:
* A civic tech background.
* Some C#/.NET experience or Windows development experience is ideal.
* Enough infrastructure experience to be comfortable scrubbing in sometimes on DevOps tasks.
* Understanding of unit testing, CI/CD, and cloud services.
* Experience writing efficient, maintainable code.
* Desire to learn about government and help make it better.
* Desire to work at a small company focused on thoughtful growth.
* Professionalism, curiosity, and humility.
Here’s what we’re offering in return:
* $150k-$177k salary range (depending on seniority).
* 4 weeks PTO per year + federal holidays.
* Insurance, including dental and vision.
* 401(k) with 4% match.
* 12 weeks paid parental leave.
* Flexible work schedule.
* An interview process that respects your time.
Some administrative requirements of our government contracts:
* Work authorization in the US.
* All work must take place in the continental US.
* Team members must have lived in the US for 3 out of the past 5 years.
* You'll have to pass a public trust government background investigation.
