Nava is at the forefront of reimagining how our government serves its people, and we’re looking for experienced software engineers to help drive this mission forward.You will work on a cross-functional team to build scalable digital services for our government – designing, implementing, and delivering software that is depended on by millions of Americans. You care deeply about working on technology that affects people’s lives, and are passionate about building large-scale systems that are well-designed, fast, scalable, and secure.Below are some of the traits of candidates who will likely be successful in this role. If you're excited about this opportunity but don't think you meet all the requirements, apply anyway!Opportunities and ChallengesWe’re looking for talented engineers to solve technical challenges across the stack, including those who lean more towards front-end or back-end development. Working together, our engineering team presents end-to-end solutions that will be used by millions of Americans every day. On the front end:You will be working to create modern, human-centered interfaces for government services. By finding innovative answers to decades old problems you’ll make these vital services more accessible to Americans from all walks of life. If you believe that government interfaces, websites, and applications can be simple, effective, and easy to use, this is the place for you.On the back end:You will build new systems with modern technology within the existing ecosystem of legacy government systems. Our work is to build functional, resilient software for production so that vital services are consistently available to those who need them. This usually means getting to know legacy systems and determining how to replicate the systems' behavior or how to integrate with these systems. If you care deeply about how software systems work over time, and building systems for longevity and resilience, this work is for you.You will be working within the government ecosystem, which means working, sometimes closely, with other government contractors and civil servants. Working with people outside of your company means you'll likely encounter different working styles and cultural norms. At the same time, working as part of a larger team allows us to deliver on projects of larger scale and complexity.The government also imposes a level of bureaucracy that is typically not present in a company of our size in the private sector. We operate in a regulated environment, where checks and compliance is built into the process of building software. This can make the path to production slower and some decisions, such as tools and processes, lie outside of our control. However, beyond writing code, finding and recommending ways to improve the way government software is built is one of the highest-leverage ways we help fulfill our mission.Compensation Range: $107,000 - $150,000 Remote states Nava is actively hiring in: Arizona, California, Colorado, DC, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Louisiana, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, North Carolina, New Jersey, New York, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, Washington.** If you are not living in one of the states listed above, unfortunately, you will not be considered for a position at this time. We're a small team working to radically improve our government, so everyone that joins us has a direct impact on the direction and success of Nava.
