We are early, well-funded, and moving quickly. As a Software Engineer, you will be one of the first people writing code at Certive. You will work directly with the founder on the core product - the integrations that pull license data, the automation that files renewals, and the dashboard brokerages open every morning. There is no backlog to pick up and no ticket queue to work through. You will help decide what gets built and then build it. This is a term engagement rather than a salaried position, but the work is real product work shipped to real customers. Strong performance is the most direct path we have to a full-time seat on the team. What you will do * Build and ship features across the product, from the interface a brokerage sees to the services behind it. * Work on integrations with the industry data sources that tell us whether a license is active, when it expires, and what is required to renew it. * Build automation that completes renewals and new license applications against state and national systems. * Turn messy customer license spreadsheets into clean, structured, monitored data using AI tooling. * Build the tracking, alerting, and task-surfacing experience that keeps a brokerage ahead of every deadline. * Sit in on design-partner conversations, watch people use what you built, and fix what does not work. * Help establish the engineering habits we will keep as we grow: testing, deploys, and security hygiene. ## Related Videos - [Getting to Know Your Legacy (System) with AI-Driven Software Archeology](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1437-getting-to-know-your-legacy-system-with-ai-driven-software-archeology) - [Launching a marketplace on-time: A lesson in taking shortcuts using spreadsheets!](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/477-launching-a-marketplace-on-time-a-lesson-in-taking-shortcuts-using-spreadsheets) - [The perfect CI/CD React Native pipeline with Fastlane](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/556-the-perfect-ci-cd-react-native-pipeline-with-fastlane) - [Coffee with Developers - Cassidy Williams - ](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/912-coffee-with-developers-cassidy-williams) - [Why your codebase lies to AI?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100281-why-your-codebase-lies-to-ai) - [Slopquatting, API Keys, Fun with Fonts, Recruiters vs AI and more - The Best of LIVE 2025 - Part 2](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1765-slopquatting-api-keys-fun-with-fonts-recruiters-vs-ai-and-more-the-best-of-live-2025-part-2) ## Related Articles - [Fully Remote Software Engineer Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/447-fully-remote-software-engineer-jobs) - [13 AI Tools You Have to Try](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/219-13-ai-tools-you-have-to-try) - [Dev Digest 121 - AI goes offline](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/456-dev-digest-121-ai-goes-offline) - [Find a Developer Job: 12 Best Job Sites For Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/165-find-a-developer-job-12-best-job-sites-for-developers) - [Dev Digest 120 - Apple and peers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/455-dev-digest-120-apple-and-peers) - [How Much Does a Software Engineer Make?
