Full Stack Web Developer

AI-Powered Web Development in a Veteran-Owned Agency Are you a web developer who actually uses AI to get real work done? Not just talking about it at conferences or listing it as a buzzword on your resume, but building with it every day? We want to talk to you. Sagentic Web Design has been building and managing websites for small businesses, non-profits, and government agencies since 2003. We run a small team out of our downtown Cañon City, Colorado office and manage over one hundred client websites on our own dedicated server infrastructure. We write the content, design the logos, build the sites, and keep everything running. No outsourcing. No offshore teams. No WordPress. Our developers work with AI tools like Claude Code and Claude Desktop as core parts of their daily workflow. We use AI to write better code faster, but we still need developers who understand what the code does and why it matters. If you can pair AI-assisted development with solid fundamentals, you will thrive here. What You Will Actually Do This is not a job where you sit in meetings all day or push tickets through a queue. You will build and maintain real websites that real businesses depend on.
