About The Position

Agile Six is a people-first, remote-work company that serves shoulder-to-shoulder with federal agencies to find innovative, human-centered solutions. We build better by putting people first. We are animated by our core values of Purpose, Wholeness, Trust, Self-Management and Inclusion. We deliver our solutions in autonomous teams of self-managed professionals (no managers here!) who genuinely care about each other and the work. We know that’s our company’s purpose – and that we can only achieve it by supporting a culture where people feel valued, self-managed, and love to come to work. Agile Six is looking for team members with experience using modern technology in cross-functional teams to quickly turn ideas into reality. We’re building a workforce of empathetic, human-centered AI power users—people who apply AI tools effectively, responsibly, and creatively to improve government services. For this role, we’re looking for a Software Engineer with hands-on experience digitizing forms to join a collaborative team working with the Department of Veterans Affairs on an ambitious initiative to digitize a number of forms by 11/11 (Veteran’s Day) to improve the delivery of services to Veterans. By delivering high quality, functional software informed by user feedback and research, our team will increase access to critical services, directly impacting and improving the lives of Veterans.
