Full Job Description
ABOUT ONEBRIEF Onebrief is collaboration and AI-powered workflow software designed specifically for military staffs. By transforming this work, Onebrief makes the staff as a whole superhuman - meaning faster, smarter, and more efficient. We take ownership, seek excellence, and play to win with the seriousness and camaraderie of an Olympic team. Onebrief operates as an all-remote company, though many of our employees work alongside our customers at military commands around the world. Founded in 2019 by a group of experienced planners, today, Onebrief’s team spans veterans from all forces and global organizations, and technologists from leading-edge software companies. We’ve raised $320m+ from top-tier investors, including Battery Ventures, General Catalyst, Sapphire Ventures, Insight Partners, and Human Capital, and today, Onebrief is valued at $2.15B. With this continued growth, Onebrief is able to make an impact where it matters most.

Our platform spans a modern full stack: a React/TypeScript frontend, Node.js backend services, cloud-native infrastructure, and authentication and identity systems. You'll work across these layers, tackling challenges in performance, reliability, scalability, security, and user experience. We value strong engineering judgment over mastery of any single technology. ABOUT YOU You're a generalist at heart. Someone who gets restless when siloed and thrives when moving across the stack and across problem domains. You think in systems, communicate trade-offs clearly, and use AI tooling as a natural part of how you work, not as a novelty. You bring your own judgment to am
