Platform Engineer

ABOUT GOVSIGNALS

We are shaping the future of government contracting with breakthrough AI‑driven solutions. We are disrupting a multi-billion-dollar industry and enabling private‑sector technologies to secure government contracts faster than ever, strengthening national security and driving economic growth.

GovSignals has built the most advanced government‑contracting AI platform available. From small businesses to Fortune 500 enterprises, our platform multiplies the opportunities contractors can pursue and empowers them to deliver fully compliant, winning proposals in hours instead of months. As one of the largest aggregators of U.S. government data, we set trends rather than follow them.

ABOUT THE ROLE

You'll work directly with the CTO and co-founder to design and build the systems that everything at GovSignals runs on — from serverless runtimes to Kubernetes-based infrastructure.

This isn't application code. This is the platform underneath it. You'll architect, implement, and operate high-performance backend services in TypeScript, deploy them across containerized and edge environments, and build the tooling that lets product engineers ship fast, securely, and with confidence. Your decisions define how software runs here — balancing speed, reliability, and scale across an AI-driven platform that's growing fast.

If you've built platforms that other engineers depend on and take pride in systems that just work, this is your role.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

- Maintain high compliance environments running on the edge (Cloudflare) and in containerized environments (Docker, Kubernetes)

- Optimize and scale our data platform, including Postgres with local replication and S3 and R2 object storage

- Build the core systems — data flows, deployment tooling, and runtime frameworks — that power GovSignals' AI platform

- Prototype and scale new platform capabilities that make development faster and more consistent

- Own CI/CD and automation that make shipping...
