Just Appraised is modernizing local government processes related to real estate and property taxes. Our cutting-edge, AI-powered software, which leverages Natural Language Processing (NLP), replaces manual data entry to eliminate delays, backlogs, and errors. With hundreds of government entities across the United States relying on us, your work will directly help drive essential revenues and provide critical services to society.
Join a high-growth, YC-backed, and fully remote startup. We are seeking a motivated Senior Implementation Engineer to take end-to-end ownership of technical projects, moving seamlessly through discovery, design, development, and deployment. This role requires a balance of deep technical investigation—navigating APIs, reverse-engineering systems, and working with limited documentation—and architectural design to create scalable, production-ready solutions for our customers.
What You Will Work On
- Software Development: Contribute to and enhance our core Java codebase, emphasizing maintainability and clean design.
- Scripting & Automation: Utilize scripting (e.g., Python, Bash) and automation tools (e.g., GitHub Actions) to streamline processes and extend system functionality.
- System Integration: Design and implement robust integrations with third-party databases, APIs, and data storage systems.
- Customer Infrastructure: Partner with remote customer teams to understand their architecture and design implementation plans that prioritize scale and reliability.
- Customer Collaboration: Serve as a trusted technical advisor, translating complex customer needs into tailored, scalable solutions.
- Cloud Infrastructure: Work with cloud-based systems (AWS) to deploy, monitor, and scale applications, ensuring high performance, reliability, and security across customer environments.
What We’re Looking For
- 5+ years of experience in an Object Oriented Programming language (e.g. Python, Java, TypeScript).
- 5+ years of experience working with and optimizing relational databases (e.g., SQL, PostgreSQL).
- 2+ years of hands-on experience with cloud services, preferably Amazon Web Services (AWS).
- Demonstrated expertise in system architecture, API design, and complex integrations.
- Ability to travel to client sites, with an estimated commitment of approximately 20% of the time (e.g., a few trips per month).
- A resourceful problem-solver comfortable diving into unfamiliar customer databases and infrastructure to understand system mechanics.
- Curious, self-directed, and energized by learning new technologies.
- Customer-centric, driven by the real-world impact of solving meaningful, hands-on problems.
- An exceptional communicator who can simplify complex technical concepts for both engineering and non-technical stakeholders.
