Overview:

2020 Companies is looking for a Full-Stack Developer Lead: a builder who can also lead. You will design and ship the applications our field teams, clients, and internal teams use, from the database to the screen, on Microsoft Azure.

Most of your week goes to writing code: new applications, APIs, and AI-powered features. The rest goes to leading our development team and the contractors and overseas developers we bring in for specific projects, reviewing their work and setting the standards they build to. You will work directly with the VP of Technology on what gets built and in what order, and you will own what you ship after it goes live.

What We Offer

• A hands-on role building applications used every day by more than 5,000 field representatives across 60+ client programs
• A small, technical team where what you build ships and gets used
• Real work with AI: building features on large language models, not just talking about them
• Room to grow as the team and its work expand

What's in It for You?

• Competitive salary
• Health, dental, and vision benefits
• 401(k) with company match
• Generous paid time off
• Hybrid or fully remote flexibility
• Ongoing professional development
