This is a fully remote position. 

Work on things that matter
Ad Hoc is a digital services company that helps the federal government better serve people. Our teams use modern, agile methods to design and engineer government systems that connect Veterans with services, bring affordable health care to millions of people, and support important programs like Head Start. And as we work to make critical government services intuitive, accessible, and human-centered, we’re also changing how the government thinks about and uses technology. If you thrive on change, want to help close the gap between consumer expectations and government services, and can see the possibilities in ambiguity, then we want you here with us.

What matters most
Ad Hoc operates according to our commitment to inclusivity, acceptance, accountability, and humility. We aren’t heroes. We believe in missions larger than our individual selves and leave our egos at the door, learn from our mistakes, and iterate in order to better serve the people in our country. We prioritize building teams that represent the diversity of the people our government serves. We love the challenge of government-size projects. We want to bring skills to federal agencies, help them better meet the needs of their users, and close the gap between consumer expectations and government.

Built for a remote life
Ad Hoc is remote-first and remote-always. We’ve designed our culture, communications, and tools to support a nationwide distributed team since the beginning. Being remote by design allows Ad Hoc to be thoughtful and intentional about creating diverse teams and supporting them with a work environment that fits their lives. With a generous PTO policy and Slack channels for every interest (from bird watching to space nerds to parenting) our culture embraces the things happening in your life. Maybe you need to adjust your schedule to care for your family or take a bike ride. At Ad Hoc, that’s embraced.

What you’ll do

Our ideal Full Stack Software Engineer is equally comfortable with frontend and backend development. On the front end, they write accessible, maintainable, and performant code. They also know how to build large-scale production systems on the back end with well-structured, tested, and secure code, with little feedback or guidance. They’ve designed and implemented reliable and maintainable APIs, and they know how to integrate APIs in accessible, performant, and maintainable frontend code using frameworks like React, Angular, or Vue.js.

As an Ad Hoc Full Stack Software Engineer, you’ll be:

  • Shipping software that impacts the lives of millions of people
  • Using modern programming languages and frameworks to build scalable services that gracefully integrate with legacy systems
  • Building and working with APIs to support both the digital services we deliver as well as third-party usage
  • Using unit and integration testing to ensure systems work as intended
  • Helping us continuously, iteratively improve

What we hope you’ll bring

  • Experience with open-source frontend languages and frameworks such as Javascript, React, Angular, Vue.js, and Typescript.
  • Experience with backend languages like Node.js, Ruby, Python, Java, or Go.
  • Experience managing Cloud infrastructure (AWS or GCP)
  • Experience implementing REST APIs
  • Experience with OAuth and OpenID Connect
  • Familiarity with Jenkins, Google cloud build, Git, Maven
  • Familiarity with unit testing and integration testing using tools like Junit, Mocha, cucumber
  • Basic networking fundamentals: TCP/IP, UDP, routing, load balancing, SSL.
  • Solid spelling, grammar, and communication skills.
  • A commitment to agility, flexibility, and iteration.
  • Experience working with Amazon Web Services, particularly EC2, S3, and RDS
  • Experience and understanding of at least one agile methodology, such as Scrum, XP, or SAFe.

More than that, our ideal candidate wants to contribute to work that is bigger than themselves, and wants to make a difference collaborating with their team. They care deeply about building better products, better relationships, and better trust in each interaction people have with their government. They believe in intuitive, easy-to-use government services. They collaborate well with designers, stakeholders, and other teams. They mentor and guide more junior engineers. They’re human-centered.

And if you don’t check every box on the list? That doesn’t mean you can’t help us in our mission to deliver critical government services. Talk to us!
