AI Summary

You will build interactive geospatial applications and platform components to support national security missions and warfighter decision-making. This involves working across the full capability lifecycle, from data ingestion and analysis to building intuitive UI workflows and integrating agentic AI.

Vannevar builds AI systems for the Department of War's most consequential missions. We have 125 deployments across every branch and combatant command spanning our core platform and five distinct products. An an example of how we work, when major combat operations started with Iran, we fielded a new product supporting 24/7 operations and 9,000+ users in three months.

How we build is our advantage: we deploy forward with the people who own the mission. Our engineers, product team, and CTO deploy forward to the point of friction, including visiting units in Ukraine. We focus on embedding directly with operational units supporting great power competition with China, combat operations with Iran, and counter-narcotics missions.

About the role

Vannevar is seeking an experienced full-stack engineer to build geospatial applications and platform components used by warfighters and intelligence analysts. You’ll develop tools that help users explore, analyze, and visualize geospatial data to make faster, better-informed decisions. Working alongside designers, engineers, subject matter experts, and operational users, you’ll turn complex intelligence requirements into intuitive workflows that support national security missions.

In this role, you will work in a small cross-functional team focused on delivering Geospatial awareness and analysis capabilities to defense customers engaged in strategic competition with near-peer adversaries. You will work across the entire capability lifecycle, including data extraction, ingestion, and analysis, building UI libraries and full stack applications, and integrating with agentic AI analyses.

Note: this role is also open to staff+ candidates.

What you’ll do

  • Build an interactive map application using TypeScript, React, Tailwind, Node.js, and Postgres
  • Design and maintain a modular, flexible map component compatible with the rest of the Vannevar platform
  • Partner with customers, mission owners, designers, and other engineers to understand user workflows and create 10x better solutions for their problems
  • Display and analyze high-volume geospatial data

What we look for

  • 5+ years of professional software development experience
  • Expertise in TypeScript, Node.js, and Postgres
  • Experience developing on a cloud platform (AWS preferred)
  • Customer obsession and keen product intuition. You think in workflows and end-user experience, not just code.

Nice to have

  • Active Security Clearance or ability to obtain one and desire to travel to visit users, collect feedback, and debug issues
  • Expertise extracting meaningful and statistically valid insights from geospatial data
  • Experience handling large-scale geospatial data
  • Experience working with web-based mapping technologies
  • Experience developing AI-native products
  • Experience building and operating production web scrapers
  • Experience working in a user-facing product role
  • Experience developing in Python

  • Health, dental, and vision insurance
  • Remote friendly with WeWork access
  • Unlimited PTO, shared downtime during the federal holiday calendar, and company-wide off time at the end of each year
