We the people — and the taxpayers — deserve good government. Yet today, interacting with government services is often frustrating and inefficient. GovWell is building the AI operating system transforming how governments serve communities, starting with local agencies.
GovWell replaces legacy software for municipalities and counties, empowering public servants to radically streamline public services and cut internal processing time for permits and licenses by up to 95%.
Founded in 2023, GovWell powers 5,000+ mission-critical processes for agencies in 35+ states serving millions of residents. The company has raised $35M in funding from Insight Partners, Work-Bench, and Bienville Capital, and the team works in person at GovWell HQ in New York City.

A mission that matters: Building AI-powered products to fix outdated government systems isn’t just a technical challenge—it’s a historic opportunity to improve our foundational relationship with government and ensure trillions of tax dollars result in high quality services.

Real-world impact: GovWell’s product is the system of record for government services that affect millions of Americans. From streamlining permitting for small businesses to accelerating affordable housing development, your work will make an immediate difference.
Join a startup in hyper-growth: We’ve found product-market fit and are scaling the business very quickly (4X ARR growth in the last year). As an early team member, you’ll learn what it takes to build a successful startup. You’ll work closely with the founders while enjoying exceptional autonomy and ownership over your work.
GovWell is hiring a Full-Stack Software Engineer to help build our core platform that powers faster, more efficient government services. You’ll work across the stack — from frontend to backend — to design, build, and ship features that directly improve how governments operate and how residents access services. This role reports directly to our CTO and Co-Founder, Ben Cohen, and offers the opportunity to take ownership of critical product areas in a fast-growing company.
We have a hybrid work culture that combines regular in-person collaboration at our New York City office (3+ days per week) with flexibility to work remotely.
Build, test, and ship full-stack features across GovWell’s platform — from intuitive resident-facing interfaces to scalable backend services that power government workflows.
Collaborate closely with the teammates to translate customer needs into usable, high-impact product functionality.
Take ownership of product areas end-to-end, ensuring features are reliable, maintainable, and performant in real-world government environments.
Contribute to technical design discussions, code reviews, and best practices that strengthen the team’s engineering culture and velocity.
Use customer feedback and product data to iterate quickly, improving both resident experiences and government efficiency.
3+ years of full-stack development experience building applications for enterprises and/or consumers. Strong preference for candidates who have worked in high-growth startup environments.
You are excited about building applications with the latest AI models and leveraging AI to enhance your personal developer workflows.
You have experience owning large product areas + features end-to-end.
You have a strong product mindset: you love to ask questions and deeply understand customer problems.
You’d rather have a challenging adventure than “rest and vest.”
You align closely with our Core Values .
