# Full Stack Engineer at Prophecy Gov

- **Company:** Prophecy Gov
- **Location:** San Francisco, CA
- **Employment:** full-time
- **Work type:** onsite
- **Posted:** 2026-03-30
- **Last confirmed live:** 2026-10-14

## Job description

## About Us

We build AI for local governments. We currently serve cities across 10+ states; CA ones include Palo Alto, Burbank, Petaluma, Hesperia, and Lake Elsinore. City staff across every department use us to help them research, draft reports, and benchmark against other cities. Our mission is to augment every local government workflow with LLMs, and to harness the collective knowledge of every US city to improve all decision making. We’ve raised $4.5M from investors like Penny Jar (Steph Curry), Formation, and Pathlight to pursue our mission. Our team of 7 is based in Fidi in San Francisco, with a smaller presence in New York.

## Why Local Gov

Cities operate the levers that most directly impact our quality of life and enable the American Dream (housing, safety, transit, recreation, etc). Every city’s focus is to better the place their residents call home, but they face heavily varying challenges: build housing to make rent affordable, improve public safety, support young families, create economic opportunity so the next generation stays, build a community where people feel they belong, and so forth. Public servants have been incorrectly scapegoated for government inefficiency. The real cause is awful software from PE-owned govtech companies, who haven’t improved or innovated their products in decades. The gov software you’ve ever interacted with is just the surface of what our public servants are forced to use. Fixing this is the highest-leverage way to better our cities. We believe it’s our duty to help our public servants reignite the American Dream, one city at a time.

## Who You Are

You are a full stack engineer that wants to own and execute on core projects like:

- Design/scale a horizontal AI agent that works across all departments, cities, and states.
- Automatically process millions of gov records to create agent-legible knowledge graphs.

You'll be great for this role if you have:

- 3+ years building production systems at high-velocity startups, from early stage through scaling
- Track record of shipping and owning AI products end-to-end
- Experience integrating AI into product workflows—using LLMs, building with agentic frameworks, or deploying AI-powered features
- Bias toward action and pragmatic decision-making over perfect solutions
- Comfortable context-switching between architecture decisions, implementation, and cross-functional collaboration
- Proficiency with our tech stack including Python, TypeScript, FastAPI, Supabase, Selenium, NextJS, TailwindCSS, shadcn, LLM APIs
- You’re based in SF or NY and want to work onsite 5 days a week

## What We Offer

- Highly competitive base and equity compensation
- Lunch and dinner provided via DoorDash
- Top of the market medical, dental, and vision coverage
- Unlimited PTO
- Gym membership subsidy

## About Prophecy Gov

## Company Overview
- **One-liner**: Prophecy Gov builds a secure, source-grounded AI platform that helps local government staff research, draft documents, and benchmark across agencies.
- **Entity Type**: Private (early-stage, funding not publicly disclosed)
- **Headquarters**: San Francisco, California, United States
- **Founded**: 2024
- **Founders**: Andrew Fang (CEO)

## Core Business
- **Primary industry/industries**: GovTech, Artificial Intelligence for Local Government
- **Target customers**: B2G – city and county government agencies (90,000+ potential agencies in the US)
- **Mission or purpose statement**: "Building the AI infrastructure to support 21st-century local government work" – helping under-resourced agencies preserve institutional knowledge, standardize writing, and break down silos.

## Products & Services
- **[Prophecy Gov AI Assistant]**: An internal, closed AI that processes an agency’s online records, enterprise systems, and uploaded files. It only returns outputs with visual citations grounded in the user’s own documents. Includes Research Assistant (cross-file search), Drafting Assistant (staff reports, resolutions), Benchmarking (compare with other governments), and Vault (secure file organization with access controls).
- **Integrations**: Works with government-specific tools (e.g., financial systems, permitting software) to query across all connected systems.

## Market Standing
- **Valuation/Market Cap**: Not publicly available
- **Key Metric**: Trusted in over 15+ states; annual revenue not disclosed.
- **Notable Investors/Partners**: No investors publicly listed. Partners include the City of North Port, Florida (announced April 2026).
- **Growth Signals**: +700% year-over-year headcount growth (from 1 to 7 employees); monthly website traffic growth of +22.2% (4,814 monthly visits); SOC2 Type II certified, ISO27001 underway; key hires in GTM and Government; active presence at major conferences (FCCMA, Alliance for Innovation, ICMA 2025).

## Competitive Advantages
- **Vertical-specific AI**: Built exclusively for local government workflows, unlike general-purpose tools like ChatGPT or Copilot that hallucinate and miss institutional files.
- **Source-grounded outputs**: The system refuses to return an answer unless it can generate a visual citation from the agency’s own documents, reducing hallucination risk.
- **Security & privacy**: SOC2 Type II certified; contractually guarantees no training on customer data; US-only data residency; restricted & monitored staff access.
- **Preserves institutional knowledge**: Helps replace retiring staff’s lost expertise by indexing decades of records.

## Strategic Focus
- **Current priorities**: Expanding integrations with more government-specific systems, scaling to additional states and agencies, and deepening the platform’s drafting and benchmarking capabilities. Emphasis on helping small and mid-sized cities achieve efficiencies despite budget and labor shortages.

## Why Work Here
- **Culture highlights**: Mission-driven work solving real civic problems; small, fast-moving team (7 people) with a low-ego, high-impact ethos. Founders and leadership come from Stanford d.school, GovTech, and public affairs backgrounds. Recognized by a city manager for saving $1.5M in unpaid developer fees.
- **Remote/hybrid/office policy**: Team spans the US and Australia; likely remote-first with occasional on-site in San Francisco.
- **Notable perks or engineering culture**: Full Stack Engineer role (listed on careers page) suggests hands-on ownership across the stack. Opportunity to shape product from early stage; focus on AI, security, and government compliance.
