Why We Need You

Over the past year, GovEagle has built strong product-market fit (5x revenue) and a customer base that loves us (10x DAU). Using GovEagle's AI agents, our government contracting customers have drastically cut down the time they spend on RFPs while winning more awards.

To continue this momentum, we’re looking for a Senior Frontend Engineer to take ownership of the GovEagle user experience. You’ll lead development across our React/Next.js frontend, work closely with our designer to bring new interfaces to life, and shape the workflows that define how customers interact with our platform every day. This role is deeply product-focused, highly visible, and central to how GovEagle continues to scale.

This role is in-person in New York City, 5 days per week , to maximize collaboration and speed.

What You’re Signing Up For

Owning the frontend of the GovEagle platform end to end — architecture, components, performance, and polish.
Working closely with our designer to translate product ideas and UI specs into high-quality, production-ready interfaces.
Integrating with backend APIs and LLM-powered functionality in collaboration with our backend engineers.
Improving UI consistency, responsiveness, accessibility, and maintainability.
Contributing to our design system and shaping a scalable component library.
Meeting with customers to understand what's important to them.

Who We're Looking For

3+ years of professional frontend engineering experience.
Deep expertise in React, Next.js, Typescript , and modern frontend patterns.
Strong product sense and sense of craft
You're a fast learner who can quickly grasp the intricacies of government contracting
You are comfortable working in ambiguity and building from zero
U.S. citizen able to discuss controlled, export-restricted workflows with customers.
Excited to work 5 days in person in our NYC Office (Herald Square)

Nice To Have

Experience developing Microsoft Office add-ins (Word, Excel, PowerPoint) or building browser extensions is a strong bonus.
While not a DevOps-heavy role, familiarity with Kubernetes, GovCloud environments, or secure deployments is a plus.

Our Stack

Next.js + React + Typescript (frontend)
FastAPI + Python (backend)
Temporal (background jobs)
DocumentDB (database)
Kubernetes (infrastructure)
AWS GovCloud + Azure GovCloud (cloud providers)
