About PolicyMate

PolicyMate is building AI for public affairs—how businesses and organisations track and influence government decisions. What we’re working on will completely reshape a 70 billion dollar industry and help change the very nature of work. And we need awesome people to help us.

We’re looking for a rockstar engineer to join our team. Reporting directly to our CTO, Grégoire (https://www.linkedin.com/in/gregoiregaonach/), you’ll help build, refine, and maintain core features and work with the full team at the cutting-edge of AI.

We’re early-stage: we move fast and learn fast. You’ll be encouraged to experiment and build, to try stuff, figure out what works, and run with it.

As a team, we’re at our happiest when we’re building and solving problems. We love working with people who want responsibility, who crave new challenges, and thrive in environments where there’s never-ending list of things to do.

If that sounds like you, then reach out!

What you’ll do

• Develop and maintain a TALL stack app (Tailwind 4, Alpine.js, Laravel 12, Livewire 3) with eloquent, queues/jobs/events, caching, etc.
• Integrate external services using Saloon; build ETL-style workflows and AI-powered automations.
• Write pragmatic tests with Pest 4 ; keep code clean, typed, and documented.
• Collaborate with the CTO to translate product requirements into well-designed technical solutions.
• Participate in a tight release loop: small PRs, fast feedback, visible impact.

Who you are

• Currently a graduate engineering student or similar in its last year of studies.
• Comfort with asynchronous collaboration and startup pace.
• Excellent at independent thinking and problem solving.
• Reliable and communicative; you meet deadlines.
• Excited to help out wherever needed.
• Clean-code discipline and clear communication of trade-offs.
• Strong proficiency in English.

Nice-to-haves

• Knowledge of web-development in general.
• Open-source contributions or visible community involvement.
• Knowledge of Laravel architecture: queues, testing, and third-party integration preferred.
• Familiarity with web-crawling, and data classification.
• Use AI-powered coding tools.
• Bonus: an interest in politics and legislative developments.

Note: Depending on your interests, we can adapt the internship. In particular, on anything touching data engineering at large.
