What is an associate developer?

Associate Developers are entry-level software professionals who assist in designing, coding, testing, and maintaining software applications under the guidance of more experienced developers. They typically work as part of a development team, contributing to projects by writing code, fixing bugs, and participating in code reviews. Associate Developers are often recent graduates or individuals with limited professional programming experience, and this role serves as a stepping stone to more advanced positions in software development.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as an associate developer?

To thrive as an Associate Developer, you need a solid understanding of programming languages such as Java, Python, or JavaScript, alongside a relevant degree or coding bootcamp experience. Familiarity with version control systems like Git, integrated development environments (IDEs), and basic knowledge of databases is typically expected. Strong problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and the ability to communicate clearly with team members help you stand out in this role. These competencies are crucial to efficiently contribute to software projects, collaborate effectively, and support the delivery of high-quality code.

What are some typical challenges faced by associate developers when transitioning from academic projects to real-world software development?

Associate Developers often find that moving from academic or personal projects to professional software development introduces new challenges, such as working within larger codebases, adhering to established coding standards, and collaborating with cross-functional teams. Managing version control, participating in code reviews, and understanding the importance of clear documentation are also key aspects. Additionally, learning to estimate tasks accurately and prioritize responsibilities based on team goals helps Associate Developers grow and succeed in a professional environment.

Job description

Associate Developer I ( Temp- Hire)
at Tevora
Irvine, CA 
 
If you haven't heard of Tevora, it's because we've done our job!
Tevora is a tight-knit community of professionals with a shared passion for our craft. Every day, we combine in-depth knowledge of cybersecurity, technology, and compliance to help create more secure digital environments. To Tevorans, every problem is a puzzle in need of solving. We strongly believe that if we put smart, driven people in a room together, they will accomplish great things. We maintain a supportive culture that celebrates continuous learning, diverse perspectives, and sharing the wins. That's why we have our eyes on you.
 
What's the role?
Tevora is seeking a Developer to join our internal product engineering team on a temporary-to-hire basis. You'll work directly under the leadership of our senior developer, contributing to Atlas — Tevora's AI-enabled compliance engagement platform — and other internal tooling that powers how we deliver for clients.  

You'll start in a temporary engagement, with a clear path to full-time conversion based on performance and fit.

Atlas is a modern TypeScript / Next.js application: it manages compliance engagements across frameworks like SOC 2,    ISO 27001, and PCI DSS, with role-based workflows for both internal Tevora teams and external clients, document automation, and LLM- assisted features throughout. 

This is a hands-on role for a developer who is fluent in modern AI-assisted development workflows and excited to build alongside an experienced engineer on a real, production product.

A day in the life could include:
  • Build, test, and ship features across the Atlas stack — Next.js (App Router), React, TypeScript, Prisma/PostgreSQL, Tailwind + shadcn/ui — under the guidance of our senior developer
  • Use AI-assisted development tools (Claude Code, Cursor) as a core part of your daily workflow
  • Work with Claude Opus and Fable models to accelerate development, debugging, and prototyping
  • Integrate and iterate on LLM-powered features and internal automations
  • Translate compliance and product requirements into clean, maintainable, well-typed code
  • Participate in code reviews, learn our stack and conventions (RBAC, activity logging, unified service layers), and grow your craft quickly
  • Help document and improve internal development practices
Necessary skills and qualifications:
  • 2–3 years of software development experience, or equivalent demonstrated project work
  • Hands-on experience with Claude Code and Cursor in a real development context
  • Working knowledge of TypeScript and a modern React framework (Next.js strongly preferred)
  • Experience building automations, agent skills, and workflow tooling
  • Comfort with relational data and an ORM (we use Prisma + PostgreSQL)
  • Practical familiarity working with Claude Opus and Sonnet models (prompting, iterating, integrating outputs)
  • Self-starter mentality — someone who likes to tinker and learn on their own
  • Ability to take direction, ask good questions, and incorporate feedback
  • Strong written and verbal communication
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or related field (or equivalent practical experience / Military equivalent)
  • Recent graduates with strong, demonstrable AI-assisted development work are encouraged to apply
 
Bonus Points:
  • Exposure to compliance, security, or SaaS product environments
  • Experience integrating LLM APIs into applications (e.g. Anthropic, Google GenAI)
  • Familiarity with our broader toolset: AWS (S3, Lambda, SES, SQS), Tailwind CSS / Radix / shadcn/ui, TanStack Query, Zod, Vitest/Playwright
  • Experience with authentication and enterprise SSO (SAML, Okta, JWT)
  • Comfort with Git and conventional commit / CI workflows
We've got you covered!
  • Comprehensive benefits offering
  • Paid time off and holidays
  • 401k with Company match
  • Vibrant work culture
  • Growth Opportunity
Additional requirements:
 
  • Eligibility to work in the United States.
