Work at multiple levels of the software stack. You'll design and implement a networked API and debug it down to the hardware.
What You'll Need
2+ years of industry experience (internships, robotics competitions, IEEE, extracurricular projects, open source contributions, etc are a major plus)
Bachelor of Science in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mechatronics Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Robotics or a related field.
Multi‑language programming language fluency. Ability to code fluently in multiple languages, at multiple levels of the stack. Our robotics engineers primarily use C++ and Python. Knowledge of Go is a bonus.
A depth and breadth understanding of how computers work. Our work involves a variety of processors and computing environments at multiple levels of the stack.
Experience designing, building, and shipping complex software systems that control hardware, as part of a team.
Experience with version control and working on Linux machines

Founding Software Engineer
Clearpath 4.6
Software development engineer job in San Francisco, CA
Hybrid in San FranciscoSalary range: $175K-$275K Job Application Link
About Us
Abundance Network is building a new generation of civic leaders and the technology to support them. We've organized 120+ elected officials in 30+ states, 100+ donors, and staffed chapters in San Francisco, Santa Monica, Oakland, Burlington, and Seattle-with new national programs scaling quickly. Our mission is to organize civic leaders to build a 21st-century government. We are focused on “policy outcomes that exist in reality” in housing, transportation, energy, and state capacity.
We are building Abundance from the ground up, helping elected officials deliver policy outcomes and connecting them with donors, academics, and professionals who can accelerate progress. Our “unit of success” isn't revenue-it's policy outcomes. We're now looking for a Founding SoftwareEngineer to build the core technology that makes this scalable.
Learn more about Abundance:
Podcast: AN Managing Director, Former Redwood City Mayor Giselle Hale on The Realignment
Podcast: AN Senior Advisor Jen Pahlka on Ezra Klein
Why This Role Matters
Elected officials are our customers. If you're the mayor of Boise and want to implement Abundance, you should be able to “phone a friend” and instantly access the playbooks, process knowledge, and partners you need. You'll build the software to make that possible.
Tech as leverage. LLMs, modern SaaS, and smart product design can massively accelerate how civic leaders plug into expertise, donor networks, and partners.
The missing piece. We have political operators, donor networks, and growing chapters. We have design and PM leadership. Now we need you-the technical lead to bring our first product features to life and scale them nationally.
What You'll Do
Ship the first features. Take early product prototypes (already in dev) and lead them through launch in the coming weeks.
Define the stack. Own the technical direction, and set up scalable, modern infrastructure.
Forward-deployed engineering. Work closely with elected officials, customer success, and the product team to understand how mayors, donors, and partners actually operate, then translate that into tools.
Build process knowledge. Help codify and document the “step-by-step” pathways to policy wins, turning them into usable software for leaders nationwide.
Maximize impact. Focus on speed, scale, and deliberate ambition-building what helps people now, and iterating fast.
Who You Are
Mission-driven: Energized by Abundance's vision of building a durable political faction and empowering local government. You want your work to matter.
Builder: Thrive on getting from zero to one-shipping products quickly, obsessing over users, and iterating fast.
Full-stack capable: Comfortable moving across frontend (React/Typescript), backend (Python), and cloud infra.
Resourceful & outcome-oriented: Pragmatic about “buy vs. build,” adept at leveraging open source, volunteers, and modern AI. You care more about impact than polishing non-essentials.
Collaborative: Excited to work with a cross-functional mix of startup operators and seasoned political leaders who get stuff done.
Experienced: 5+ years of softwareengineering experience. You don't need to be deeply senior; what matters is ambition, urgency, and the ability to scale product quickly.
Nice to Have
Experience in civic tech, political campaigns, or government systems.
Background in early-stage startups or as a founding engineer.
Strong product and UX instincts.
Curiosity about using AI/LLMs in practical civic contexts.
The Team
We're a 20-person org, about half focused on national programs, half on local chapters. Roughly a quarter of us come from startups/tech, and the rest are skilled political operators who know how to deliver real outcomes. We've built trust with elected officials and donors over years-and now we're forming our first product squad. You'll join a tight team with design, PM, and operations already in place, and take point as the lead engineer.
What We Offer
A founding seat at the table: shape the culture and direction of Abundance's tech team.
The chance to scale a political movement with durable, national impact.
Competitive salary.
Hybrid culture with flexibility for exceptional candidates elsewhere.

Software Engineer - Jobs Platform & Certifications
Openai 4.2
Software development engineer job in San Francisco, CA
About the Role
We're looking for exceptional engineers to help build one of the most transformative applications of AI: using ChatGPT to expand economic opportunity at scale. This is a unique chance to work at the intersection of agents, search/matching, personalization, UX, and real-world economic impact and building AI products that directly change people's lives.
Millions already turn to ChatGPT for career help, but the job market is stuck in static résumés, keyword search, and opaque hiring. We're building something different: a career agent that understands your skills, helps you prove them through certifications, and works nonstop to unlock opportunities - leading to a network where worker and employer agents match on real capabilities, not job boards.
In this role, you will:
Own major product surfaces end-to-end to build the next-generation AI-powered jobs platform
Design and ship core systems for matching, candidate verification, skills representation, and workflow automation
Work with research to turn new model and agent capabilities into production features that help users prove skills, certify expertise, and find great opportunities
Build high-trust, scalable systems that support millions of job seekers and employers
Run experiments, talk to users, and iterate quickly to identify what drives successful outcomes, not clicks or resumes
Work closely with product, design, research, and ops to create human-centered experiences powered by AI
Optimize for speed, reliability, and security, ensuring a trusted platform for economic mobility
You may be a good fit if you have:
5+ years of softwareengineering experience building highly-available user-facing products
Experience working across the stack (frontend + backend) and comfort owning features end-to-end
Passion for marketplaces, matching systems, or search/personalization, even if you haven't built one before
Interest in AI-driven UX, agents, and workflow automation (direct ML experience not required)
Enthusiasm for working in a fast-moving, ambiguous environment where new ideas ship quickly and user impact matters most
