Reinvent America's
Digital Infrastructure
Better, more efficient government starts with better technology. GovWell is building the AI operating system transforming how governments serve communities. Join our team to help Americans believe in government again.
Help Americans believe in government again
01
Improve everyday public services
We deserve high quality government services that are simple to access. We are making it easier across America to start small businesses, build new housing, and keep neighborhoods safe.
02
Make government more efficient
Government services should be efficient, transparent, and delivered at the lowest possible cost to taxpayers. We believe that AI and software are essential to realizing these goals.
03
Restore trust through results
Over the last half century, our trust has eroded that paying taxes results in real value, causing the decay of public institutions. Trust isn’t rebuilt with rhetoric, it’s earned through results. By improving government effectiveness and efficiency, we are showing that it's still worth investing in our common prosperity.
Why we joined GovWell
“Growing up, I helped my dad apply for hundreds of construction permits. Those frustrating experiences inspired me to found GovWell to build better solutions for the millions of tradespeople whose livelihoods depend on getting permits fast.”
“Being raised by two public servants, my parents showed me early that meaningful change starts in local government and ripples outward. I’m incredibly proud to be part of GovWell and to support the people who serve their communities, helping make their work easier so residents receive the service they deserve.”
“My work has included building tools for election administration and public health during the pandemic. I joined GovWell to keep applying those skills to systems people rely on when it matters most.”
“After working on presidential and Senate campaigns and alongside local governments, I wanted to focus on impact beyond elections. GovWell is where I can help improve how government works year after year.”
“Before GovWell, I ran operations on presidential campaigns, where nothing works unless the systems do. Now I help build the operational backbone public service needs to function day to day.”
"I spent years working with designers and planners, hearing the same frustration over and over: why is permitting so hard? With GovWell, we're building the solution."
From New York City,
for communities across the country
In-person collaboration
We work together from our New York City headquarters 3 to 5 days a week. Being in the same place helps us move faster, collaborate more effectively, and build lasting relationships.
Central Manhattan HQ
Our office is located in the heart of Manhattan at the intersection of West 36th Street and 5th Avenue, providing easy access to major transit hubs as well as world class dining and entertainment.
Autonomy for all
While in-person is our default, we don't mandate specific days. Team members have the trust and flexibility to work the schedule that works best for them.
The values that guide our work
Our mission carries real responsibility. These standards guide how we build, collaborate, and make decisions every day.
We are uncomfortable with stasis. Improving government means taking on complex, long-term challenges without easy answers. Progress comes from setting ambitious goals, welcoming honest feedback, and holding ourselves — and each other — accountable to getting better over time.
The systems we build shape how communities experience public life. That impact carries responsibility. Decisions are made with the public interest in mind, because trust is earned through outcomes, not intentions.
Achieving great things requires small teams of exceptional people. We only hire people who are among the top 1% at what they do and we hold each other to this same standard.
We seek an uncommonly deep understanding of the world around us. At work, we recognize that our understanding of our crafts, our users, and our colleagues is never finished. Staying curious helps avoid shallow solutions and builds things that last.
This work is demanding, but it’s also shared. Support means stepping in when needed, taking responsibility, and helping our teammates regardless of what’s in our job description.
