Staff Software Engineer
OpenGov, US | Massachusetts | Boston
The role
Community Intelligence is a new engineering team at OpenGov, based in our Boston office, chartered with bringing next-generation physical-world sensing and AI-based detection into our Community Operations suite. Rather than treating sensing as an external add-on, this team builds the pipeline and integration layer that make it a native, foundational capability across our products.
As a founding Staff Software Engineer on this team, you will design and build the systems that turn raw sensor data into structured records, condition assessments, and automated workflows across multiple products. You will make real technical calls with incomplete information, evaluating emerging sensing technologies, reconciling third-party data against our own systems, and sequencing a rollout across a multi-product suite. You will also set patterns the rest of the team builds on. AI-native tooling is expected to be embedded in your workflow.
