Jobs at Holly

Build and own core full-stack product features for a civic-tech HR platform used by local governments. Responsibilities include designing data models, backend APIs, React interfaces, AI and LLM-powered workflows, data ingestion pipelines, observability, testing, and CI/CD. The role requires architectural ownership, strong product judgment, independent execution, and collaboration with founders in an early-stage startup.

Own daily data operations, including data collection, pipeline monitoring, quality validation, root-cause investigation, SQL-based cleaning, and Metabase dashboards. Partner with engineering and deployment teams to resolve data issues, standardize metrics, document processes, and build tooling that improves reliability and scalability for government clients.

Own technical direction and end-to-end delivery across Holly’s full-stack product. Build production features with TypeScript, React, Postgres, and AI/LLM systems; design data pipelines and data-rich interfaces; establish architecture, reliability, testing, observability, and CI/CD standards; and mentor engineers through cross-team decisions. The role partners closely with founders and requires ownership of customer-facing systems in an early-stage environment.

Partner with the founders and leadership team to operate Holly’s next growth phase. Own financial planning, forecasts, cash management, SaaS metrics, board reporting, company-wide KPIs, and planning cadences. Lead ambiguous, cross-functional initiatives from definition through execution, build new business functions, improve processes, support fundraising and external relationships, oversee People Operations, and strengthen company culture through events and initiatives.

Own the full implementation journey for government clients, including kickoff sessions, multi-week training, launch coordination, usage tracking, troubleshooting, and post-launch onboarding. Manage multiple simultaneous launches, build client trust, identify workflow and product gaps, and translate customer insights into product improvements. The role requires strong project management, local government understanding, customer communication, entrepreneurial initiative, and frequent travel for in-person collaboration.
