Job description
Full Stack Engineer
The defense market is surging, but the data that drives it hasn't kept up. Companies, government, and investors are forced to perform heavily manual processes and piece together hundreds of disparate sources to make decisions. Obviant is building a data source of truth and AI tools for defense acquisition to solve this. We fuse information from thousands of sources – structured + unstructured – to provide a cohesive picture of budget, programs, the organizations running them, and much more. Whether it's a company navigating GTM or a program manager developing capabilities, we're providing all sides with the intelligence they need to execute effectively. We're growing fast and backed by top funds and DoD/national security veterans.
We believe that public sector mission sets matter above anything else. If you feel the same way, we'd love for you to join us.
The Role
You'll be building the next generation of tools that are fundamentally changing how government technology works. We move fast, ship often, and solve complex problems with elegant solutions.
Responsibilities
Shape and own features from start to finish. Your perspective drives how we build, design, and implement solutions that matter.
Work across the full technical spectrum – from crafting robust APIs and type systems to building intuitive frontends and component libraries.
Work with users to understand their workflow and create solutions that transform how they work
Design and build data visualization tools that bring clarity to complex information
Develop innovative AI/ML solutions in a space that has so far been uncharted by modern and cohesive technology solutions
Qualifications
5+ years of full stack experience, building solutions users love
A natural drive to understand users and translate their challenges into elegant solutions
Track record of owning features end-to-end and seeing them through to success
Government, govtech, or defense experience is welcome but not required
Passionate about defense and the mission
Comfortable with the pace and impact of a fast-growing startup
Our Working Style – Why We Might Work Well Together
You care about government & are mission-oriented - Our work is important, and is critical to improving a system that impacts us all.
Perseverance and endurance - Hard problems are worth solving, and solving them can take a long time. There is no such thing as exhausting all options, it's just time to look for new ones.
Empowerment > micro-management – We're building a culture of high-performers. Our job is to equip them with what they need and eliminate roadblocks for them to succeed. We trust their judgment, skills, and experience from there.
We're collaborative and communicate well - Constructive dialogue that takes all viewpoints into account is the only way we get to the right decision. Respect, trust, and complete transparency with each other is critical - keep it all in the open
You're really good at what you do… but it speaks for itself – High output, no ego. Being humble is extremely important to us
You don't mind change and are comfortable with uncertainty - We're deliberate about setting goals, but we're comfortable changing course and dealing with discomfort to get there. We're still figuring things out, and that demands being flexible and iterative.
Work doesn't feel like "work" to you – We're passionate about what we're going after, and we devote more time to it than a typical 9-5. That often means putting in extra time at night and occasionally on weekends. However, maintaining your own personal balance comes above all else, and you should establish that however you need to - flexible schedule, taking advantage of time off, or anything else you need.
You like to move fast and have a bias towards action - Our roadmap is directional at this stage - speed and a feeling of urgency is key to prove it out. We expect each other to proactively determine what needs to get done and go for it.
Integrity is never negotiable – Transparency, honesty, and respect comes above all else.
Benefits & Structure
We're a tight-knit team headquartered in Arlington, VA. We work in the office together most days, and believe being in the same place is a competitive advantage.
Flexible schedule - We all have other things going on in our lives. Doctor visits, kids' activities, dog walks - take care of it whenever you have to. And work from home when you need to.
Competitive compensation + Sizeable equity - We're building something with massive upside potential, and you'll have ownership in that. This is ours.
Flexible vacation time - Use what you want, as long as you're taking care of what needs to get done.
Full health, dental, and vision insurance.
