About the role

  • This is an unparalleled opportunity to join our team as a foundational engineer in our newly formed federal group.
  • Your early contributions and leadership will be essential in defining the trajectory of our federal sector, making this an unparalleled opportunity for high-impact ownership and professional development.
  • Deployed Engineers bring technical depth to Cognition's most federal enterprise engagements.

Responsibilities

  • Building Devin is just the first step-our hardest challenges still lie ahead.
  • If you're excited to solve some of the world's biggest problems and build AI that can reason on real-world tasks, apply to join us.
  • You'll own a narrow set of strategic accounts, tackling the hardest problems-whether that's architecting a deployment, building an integration, or debugging something no one else can figure out.
  • Own the technical direction and success of customer accounts and deployments
  • Build product extensions and integrations using Cognition's APIs and platform primitives
  • Architect and maintain complex enterprise deployments
  • Builder mentality - you'd rather ship something than wait for someone else to build it
  • You'll own the technical direction of accounts, making decisions that shape long-term adoption, architecture, and how the Cognition platform evolves in real-world environments.
  • Translate customer pain points into product direction: scope requirements, define solutions, and drive implementation

Requirements

  • Experience working within the government or working in a government focused company.
  • Have a track record of pursuing excellence at high levels, in any domain
  • Proficiency in Python, TypeScript, or similar
  • comfort navigating unfamiliar codebases
  • Experience scoping and shipping features in collaboration with product and engineering teams
  • Track record in forward-deployed engineering, solutions architecture, or similar technical roles
  • Experience with enterprise infrastructure (cloud deployments, networking, security)

Company info

  • A core part of this role is shaping the product.
  • When customers hit friction that the product doesn't solve, you're the person who figures out what should exist-and makes it happen.
  • We are committed to providing reasonable accommodations for candidates with disabilities throughout the hiring process - please let us know if you need any.
  • WE ARE AN APPLIED AI LAB BUILDING END-TO-END SOFTWARE AGENTS.
  • You'll identify patterns from the field, build on the product edge to unblock customers, and translate those learnings into requirements that inform what core engineering builds next.

  • Cognition is an equal opportunity employer.
  • We do not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, age, disability, veteran status, or any other protected characteristic under applicable law.
