• Building interactive dashboards, data visualizations, and AI-enabled features – including large language model (LLM) integrations – that turn firm and client data into clear, actionable insights
• Writing clean, well-tested, maintainable code and helping establish the shared standards, reusable components, and best practices of the AI Center of Excellence; participating in code reviews and collaborating through Git

• Undergraduate degree in a relevant discipline – computer science, software engineering, or a related technical field (or equivalent practical experience)
• 2–5 years of professional software development experience
• Hands-on experience building full-stack web applications with React and TypeScript
• Deep intellectual curiosity (constantly ask “why” – and then go figure it out)
• Comfort brainstorming, implementing, and iterating solutions for loosely structured problems
• Flexible and adaptable team player willing to play many different roles and embraces change
• Self-starter mentality, willing to identify and take on new opportunities and challenges
• Proficient across the full stack – HTML, CSS, JavaScript/TypeScript, and React on the front end, plus building and consuming REST APIs and server-side logic, and version control with Git
• Strong oral & written communication skills
• If you don't check all the boxes but think you have what it takes, let us know, and tell us why!

Opportunities may exist to work out of our New York City or greater Philadelphia area office, and remote work may be an option for exceptional candidates
• Server-side experience with Next.js (API routes, server components, server actions)
• Experience with our broader stack: Node.js, Tailwind CSS, testing frameworks (Jest, React Testing Library), CI/CD, and cloud platforms such as AWS
• Exposure to AI/LLM APIs (e.g., Anthropic, OpenAI) or experience building AI-enabled features — especially valued
