Full-stack Engineer

• Build the "Claude Code for Public Services". As a Principal Engineer you'll own features end-to-end across the whole stack: helping users wire up data sources into workflows, chat with AI agents to test their services against complex edge cases, spot anomalous behaviour at a glance in dynamic dashboards, and debug failing workflows in real time.
• Write the pattern book. Set the technical vision for our UI architecture — state management, component patterns, build tooling, design system — and make the decisions that allow us to rapidly test new ideas and scale the ones that work. You'll partner closely with product and design to shape what gets built, not just how.
• Raise the bar. You'll be the technical leader other engineers learn from. Set high standards through code review, architectural guidance, and your own work. Model what infrastructure-grade craft looks like in practice — the kind of engineering that governments can depend on.
