Careers
Bring AI to local government and help communities work
We’re a small, remote team building the software that counties and cities run on.
Who we are
Mission-driven technologists passionate about making government work more efficiently.
Backed by Y Combinator
Part of the YC community since our early days, and building for the long run.
Remote across time zones
Teammates work from across the US and beyond. We write things down so nobody has to be online at the same hour.
Small on purpose
Every person owns a real piece of the product. There are no layers between you and the customer.
Fast, with care
We ship weekly to offices that cannot afford a bad release. Speed and rigor are both the job.
Built for everyone
The residents we serve speak sixty languages. The team building for them should reflect that range.
Startup focus
Priorities change when customers teach us something. We would rather adjust than defend a plan.
Who thrives at Alltus
We’re looking for teammates who:
- Care about solving real problems for customers
- Want to work with smart, motivated teammates
- Value meaningful impact over hierarchy
Care about solving real problems for customersFit matters — for you and for us. So we think it’s just as important to share what we’re not as what we are.
We’re not a traditional corporate environment. Roles here aren’t rigidly defined, and we’re not a ticket-taking culture. We expect people to think holistically about problems and focus on what’s best for the company and the mission.
What you’ll find instead is a team of high-performing people who hold themselves to a high standard and enjoy working with others who do the same. We care about building something meaningful and creating real value in the world.
And while we move quickly and expect a lot from one another, we also recognize that people are human beings first. We respect individuality, different working styles, and the fact that a great team is made up of people — not just roles on an org chart.
If you’re someone who wants ownership, values excellence, and wants to work with thoughtful, mission-driven teammates, you’ll likely thrive here.
Perks and benefits
Remote-first
Work from wherever you do your best work. We meet in person a few times a year.
Flexible time off
Take the time you need, and a team that expects you to actually use it.
Home office setup
A budget for the desk, chair and screen you'll spend your days with.
Parental leave
Paid leave for every new parent, however your family grows.
Health benefits
Medical, dental and vision coverage for you and your dependents.
Equity
Everyone owns part of what we're building.
Our values
- 01
EQ over IQ
Being right matters less than being understood. We listen first, to customers and to each other.
- 02
Customers come first
A clerk with a line out the door is the reason the product exists. Their week decides our priorities.
- 03
Practice inclusivity
We build for every resident, so we hire, design and decide with every resident in mind.
- 04
Start-to-finish ownership
If you start it, you see it through: shipped, adopted, and still working a month later.
- 05
Agile and fast-paced
Small releases, short loops, and no attachment to a plan the customer has already outgrown.
“The mentorship here is real. I've grown more in a few years than I expected to in ten, and I can point to the county offices using what I built.”
Open roles
Every role is remote. If you don’t see a fit but want to work on this, write to us anyway.
