About the Role
We're hiring a Software Engineer (Search) to help build GovDash's search, recommendation, and knowledge systems. This role is for engineers who enjoy working with data at scale, building intelligent retrieval pipelines, and creating systems that help users find exactly what they need across massive document sets.
You'll work on search infrastructure, recommendation engines, and data pipelines that power discovery across the platform. While you'll work across the stack, this role leans backend and emphasizes search systems, data engineering, and retrieval-augmented AI.
This role has a $190,000-$220,000 base salary range plus equity and is based in New York City.
What You'll Do
-
Design, build, and scale backend services that power search, recommendations, and relevant data retrieval.
-
Build and optimize data pipelines that ingest, normalize, and index large volumes of government and enterprise data.
-
Create retrieval pipelines using embeddings to search and reason across thousands of documents.
-
Solve entity resolution challenges across messy, real-world datasets: de-duping, merging, cleaning, validating, and structuring data for downstream use.
