Vannevar Labs brings innovative, robust, and scalable software design to the public servants working in defense and national security keeping our country safe.  
 
As a team, we exist because we believe in public service, and we think that our democracy and government improve only if we put serious, collective effort into improving them, including the technology our government uses.  
 
Our flagship product is Decrypt, a software platform for collecting and processing foreign language text data with a UI for enabling users to quickly interpret the data. Decrypt is driving some of our most important military and foreign policy decisions by enabling our government partners to understand and respond to foreign actors in ways previously not possible.  
 
We are a profitable growth startup with investment from Felicis Ventures, DFJ Growth, Aloft VC, General Catalyst, Point72, Costanoa Ventures, and Shield Capital.
 
In this role, you will build software to turn text data into usable narratives and workflows. You will work with designers, product managers, and members of the government and military to understand customer problems and ideate solutions. In one week, you may work on a data ingestion endpoint (NodeJS, Postgres), client-facing API (GraphQL), and data visualization UI (React) to enable a user workflow. Security clearance and previous defense experience are NOT required, in fact expertise you may bring from consumer tech, media, or marketing will be a great asset.
 
You may be a good fit for this role if you value:
 
Beauty. You believe that beauty and craftsmanship matter, in design and in code.
Simplicity. You believe that simplicity is the ultimate sophistication, and that simple systems are easier to understand, maintain, and scale.
