Dynamo Technologies is seeking a Senior AI Software Engineer to join our Innovation Division — a dynamic research and development team focused on rapidly building functional applications, from the user interface down to the data layer, that deliver measurable efficiency gains for our clients and internal tools so our existing team can accomplish more. This role is for builders who thrive at the intersection of modern web development and applied AI, working in a fast-paced environment where speed of delivery and thoughtful execution are paramount.
You'll be responsible for designing and shipping full-stack web applications — typically SvelteKit front ends backed by Supabase/Postgres — with AI woven into them: systems that transform unstructured data into actionable insights, pipelines that take that data from raw documents to structured output, and chat and knowledge interfaces that real users rely on. You'll also help clients understand how AI systems — including self-hosted and agentic ones — can be deployed securely and cost-effectively in federal environments.
In this role, you'll work across teams to rapidly prototype, build, and deploy AI-powered products. Your day-to-day revolves around designing and building full-stack web applications — owning the experience end to end, from discovery calls to data ingestion to UI/UX leveraging tools like SvelteKit, Supabase/Postgres, AWS, and Ollama.
You'll also be presenting your work to both internal stakeholders and external clients, demonstrating software capabilities and helping shape solution architectures for federal contracting opportunities. This means understanding the RFP process, solution development, and how to communicate technical capabilities in ways that resonate with decision-makers.
Proven ability to design and ship full-stack web applications end to end — front end, back end, and data layer — and to own the user experience, not just the code (we primarily use SvelteKit and Supabase/Postgres; comparable stacks are fine)
Comfort working directly with end users — internal teams and federal clients — to shape what gets built, gather feedback, and iterate quickly
Demonstrated experience with text extraction using multimodal AI models and OCR tools for processing multi-page applications and forms
Proven ability to build data pipelines that transform unstructured data into structured, normalized formats
Strong presentation skills with a track record of presenting software and technical solutions to stakeholders and leaders for internal and external R&D projects
Understanding of federal contracting environments, RFP processes, and solution architecture development
Experience self-hosting models and services in Linux environments, with a working understanding of deployment patterns, sizing and scaling considerations, and token economics for LLMs and other AI systems (occasionally includes hands-on work with hardware and infrastructure)
Experience with hybrid database architectures — graph databases such as Neo4j alongside vector stores like Qdrant or Pinecone, and/or pgvector inside Postgres
Working knowledge of retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) for chatbot and knowledge management system development
Hands-on experience deploying agentic AI systems
Active security clearance for defense work
Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Data Science, Engineering, or related field
Comfortable building and configuring hardware and infrastructure when occasionally needed
Proficient in Python, SQL, JavaScript/TypeScript, Git, and Docker
Hands-on experience building web applications with a modern JavaScript framework — Svelte/SvelteKit preferred; React, Angular, or similar are fine — along with HTML/CSS and a utility framework like Tailwind
Working knowledge of a Postgres-based application platform such as Supabase (or comparable backend-as-a-service / relational stacks)
Cloud-agnostic and platform-agnostic mindset with the ability to work across different environments
Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or 5–10 years of equivalent work experience
The Innovation Division operates as Dynamo's hybrid research-and-development and functional application development arm. Our team moves fast, building products across multiple client teams and helping existing clients improve their delivery speed, efficiency, and overall thoughtfulness in solution design. We're focused on delivering tangible results quickly while maintaining the quality and security standards required for federal contracting work.
