Responsibilities

Design, prototype, build, and launch AI-powered workflow automation products that transform how governments process and deliver services — from AI-powered resident assistants to AI agents that review and approve permits, licenses, and inspections

Take full ownership of AI product development — from identifying agency and resident needs to shipping production-ready solutions, using techniques like retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) to handle complex regulatory and compliance data

Collaborate closely with design, engineering, and government domain experts to turn generative AI into intuitive, reliable, and auditable workflows, including multi-agent orchestration for complex, multi-step approval processes (e.g., construction permitting or business licensing)

Leverage cutting-edge models and custom LLM systems to ensure accuracy, compliance, and scalability across diverse government use cases

Use agency feedback and real-world usage data to rapidly iterate and improve automation features, ensuring solutions are trustworthy, transparent, and aligned with regulatory requirements
