AI Native Senior Software Engineer

AI is central to where we're going. Not as a feature but as core infrastructure. We're embedding intelligence directly into the workflows our customers rely on every day, and we're doing it alongside them. Our customers tell us what the mission demands. We build what answers it.

This work attracts a specific kind of person — someone who wants to be pushed by great people, build things that outlast a sprint cycle, and go home knowing the work connected back to something real.

The AI Native Senior Software Engineer is a change agent and a driver of value within our public safety ecosystem. Public safety agencies, dispatchers, and first responders count on our software every day, so reliability and security come first. You will architect, own, and deliver innovation to customers and be accountable for the results it produces for our users and our business. You will work across the VersatermOS platform and our broader product portfolio, bringing deep technical and architecture knowledge together with AI native development practices to build solutions that are reliable, secure, scalable, and cost-efficient. You will also lead by example and help engineers on the team(s) adopt the same ways of working. You should be passionate about shaping the future of public safety and revel in the fact that no task is too small or too big to make a difference to the people we serve. You will own and shape product with your team, from idea through production, and set the direction and tone for generating value for our customers and business.

The Direction

This position will have the opportunity to contribute to several tech stacks across our public safety portfolio. Our direction is to build working solutions quickly using the full range of AI native tools and practices, including coding agents, spec-driven development, AI-assisted design and code review, automated test generation, and agent workflows built into our CI/CD pipelines. You will work closely with your team to do this without giving up the reliability, security, and quality our customers rely on. You will be a hands-on leader in this space, setting the example for how we use AI to deliver software and helping staff build the same skill set you have. The AI Native Senior Software Engineer should be passionate about agentic development, architecture, and driving innovation to help shape the future of our software products.
