Job opening - Server Side Web Developer at Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (Washington, DC; New York, NY; San Francisco, CA) (telecommute)

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) is hiring 30 developers and designers for a two-year fellowship. We’re a brand new agency dedicated to making consumer financial markets work for Americans.  Our team is agile, data-driven, and innovative. The CFPB isn't restricted by bureaucratic legacies. We use GitHub and AWS to ensure a collaborative and flexible team. We have the most serious open source policy in the federal government.


We're building a culture where developers aren't code monkeys but critical leaders in accomplishing the CFPB's mission. 


Depending upon your skills, you will:



  • Work side-by-side with economists to analyze market trends within massive data sets

  • Build a goal-based consumer experience platform that will empower consumers to take more control over their financial lives

  • Enhance consumer response systems to ensure consumers get resolutions when they are ! the targets of unfair, deceptive, or abusive practices

  • Integrate the public into the CFPB's participatory policy making initiatives

  • Lay the technological infrastructure of a government agency that puts human centered software design first


This is just a short preview of the projects we'll be working on in order to build a Bureau that will be technologically modern - not just for the next 5 years but for the next 50.


Join us.


Questions? We'd love to talk: tech@consumerfinance.gov. Please note that this opportunity is only available to current US citizens and Permanent Residents
