Job description

Vannevar Labs builds next generation defense software for the public servants keeping our country safe. As a team, we exist because we believe in public service, and we think that our democracy and government improve only if we put serious, collective effort into improving them, including the technology our government uses.

This mission has become urgent. Ukraine is engaged in a war for survival with Russia. China regularly flies nuclear-capable bombers into Taiwan and Japan’s airspace. The US and our allies are fighting a war of deterrence with woefully outdated technology. We build software to support these missions, including providing battlefield information to allies, identifying malign activity, and helping the US deter and deescalate conflict.

We are a profitable growth startup with some of the best defense investors in the world, including General Catalyst, DFJ Growth, Point72, and enterprise tech investors Costanoa and Felicis.

Senior Full Stack Engineer

The Geospatial engineering team is building a cutting-edge platform for unclassified geospatial analytical workflows in support of strategic competition efforts. We’re looking for a Senior Full Stack Engineer to help build and deliver mission-critical capabilities into the hands of those who serve our nation.

You’ll be part of a cross-functional team that includes software engineers and officers from all branches of the military. We also do something common in Silicon Valley tech companies but radical in the defense space: we develop and test products side-by-side with our users, including on US military bases and remote locations abroad. Our engineering culture is about empathizing with users and building software products that deliver maximum mission impact.

What you’ll do

Build efficient and reusable front-end systems that drive complex geospatial applications in environments with performance and resource constraints
Implement new geospatial algorithms, backend systems, and user interfaces
Collaborate with Designers, Product Managers, Mission, and Software Engineers to deliver compelling user-facing products
Collaborate across interdisciplinary teams to plan, build, and deliver complex software features
Provide technical guidance and mentorship to peers
Travel up to 20% of time to meet with mission owners and deliver capabilities

Qualifications 

4+ years as a Full Stack Developer or similar role
Familiarity with relational databases (like Postgres), caching technologies (like Redis), object stores (like S3), and distributed search systems (like ElasticSearch)
Experience building and owning features end-to-end
Excellent communication and teamwork skills
You must be a US resident or citizen

Qualifications (Nice to Haves)

Experience building geospatial products
4+ years of experience implementing geospatial algorithms
4+ years of experience building with React and JavaScript

What we offer
