Job description

Founding Software Engineer - Vimes
ABOUT US
Vimes is building the universal operating system for government welfare, starting with child protection: our cross‑platform crisis‑intervention software replaces the paper trails and traditional email threads that slow schools, hospitals, police, and social‑services agencies.
At it's core, we build software to save kids' lives and In 12 months we launched a nationally adopted child‑risk metric, published an academically validated white paper, and cut average response times from 40 days to 12 hours for 18 police departments covering 320K citizens. Having recently closed a $2.2M pre-seed, we envision becoming the universal system of record for all of public safety, becoming a central hub for data and communications for all vulnerable populations.
We have a pipeline of 30+ cities, 15 states, and may cross $10M revenue barrier in the next 12 months. As we scale 10x and we're looking for talented technical engineers to join us.
THE ROLE
We're looking to bring on founding engineers, for an in-person position in New York City or Bay Area (open to hybrid or remote but MUST LIVE IN U.S.).
As a small team, we work in a highly collaborative environment and you'll have the opportunity to participate in varying stages of the technical process, reporting to the CTO/CEO.
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR (non-exhaustive list)
  • Highly skilled in React/React Native, iOS/Android app development
  • Experience working with AWS-related services
  • Have a startup-y background or love bringing products from concept to reality: the 0 → 1 phase.

  • Plus for design experience!
  • Experience writing production code on shipped full-stack apps
  • Experience working with communication platforms
  • Experience with building no-SQL and SQL database schemas
  • Be able to learn new tech / anything relevant quickly

WHAT THINGS YOU (MIGHT) DO
  • App. You'll be working with the team to build out our mobile and web app, laying the foundations for a large-scale government and social impact product and influencing direction of our stack.
  • Features. We've mastered our first product and system: child abuse data communication. As we expand, you will be rapidly building and testing new features like new communication methods, integrated database access, etc.; as well as new systems like domestic violence and gun violence frameworks.
  • Security. We have spent a lot of time building a secure system. You'll be helping us scale towards stateRAMP and fedRAMP compliance.
  • Data. You'll help in generating data-driven insights (ie. 50-pg reports to police chiefs) AND working on integrating with current gov. databases to securely integrate our product
  • Managing. You will be placed in a unique position to have capable Stanford SWE interns at your disposal to streamline your efficiency and productivity. Working with the CTO, you will have the ability to build leadership and managerial skills working with our interns.
  • Building UI components. You will work closely with our designers to think deeply about optimizing user experience and streamlining how our users will interact with the tech.
  • Solving interesting technical problems. Bring your full creativity to solve any technical challenges along the way.

COMPENSATION
You will be joining a small-team, high-velocity startup and thus will be compensated competitively. Some terms:
  • Competitive salary + offers equity
  • Performance bonus
  • Relocation compensation (if moving to the Bay Area / New York)
  • Monthly stipend for meals
  • Health insurance + 401K match

In any case, we hope you'll join us because you find a fast-paced production velocity exciting and fulfilling, and you want to help us prove what's possible.
