• Rails services and APIs reliably support partner integration features and business workflows.
• Integration issues are easier to diagnose, resolve, and prevent through better tooling and user experiences.
• New partner-facing features are delivered with strong test coverage, sound engineering practices, and minimal operational friction.
• The team continuously improves the developer and integration experience for organizations adopting Login.gov.

Why Join Us?

• Help improve the integration experience for partner agencies delivering secure digital identity services.
• Work on a mission-driven platform that supports trusted access to government services.
• Contribute across the stack, from Rails backend services to modern frontend applications and reusable web components.
