Product Engineer

About the role

This role is for an experienced product engineer who wants real ownership, real leverage, and real impact. You have already shipped meaningful products and systems. You are comfortable taking responsibility for outcomes, not just execution. You care deeply about product quality, system design, and user experience, and you want your decisions to shape the direction of what gets built. You thrive in environments with ambiguity. You are energized by loosely defined problems and take initiative to clarify goals, explore constraints, and drive toward strong solutions. You are trusted to make technical and product tradeoffs independently and to mentor others by example. You enjoy working across the stack and across disciplines. You move fluidly between backend systems, frontend interfaces, and product decisions. You want to help define how a product is built, not just implement tickets. This is not a role for someone who wants narrow scope or heavy process. It is for someone who wants to operate as a force multiplier.

What You Will Do

• Lead the design and implementation of user facing features across frontend and backend using TypeScript, React, Tailwind, and Postgres
• Translate ambiguous product goals into clear technical plans and shipped outcomes
• Partner closely with product and design to shape roadmap decisions and execution strategy
• Talk directly with users to understand workflows, pain points, and opportunities
• Drive fast iteration loops using feedback, data, and firsthand product usage
• Raise the quality bar through thoughtful system design, testing, and code review
• Identify and resolve structural issues that slow the team or degrade product quality
• Mentor junior engineers through pairing, feedback, and setting strong technical examples
• Contribute to a culture of ownership, clarity, and high standards

How You Will Be Successful

• End to end ownership: You take responsibility for important product areas, drive decisions, and reliably deliver high quality features without heavy oversight.
• Technical and product leadership: You make sound architectural and product tradeoffs, improve system quality over time, and elevate the thinking of those around you.
• Shipped product impact: Your work measurably improves user experience, product depth, reliability, and development velocity.

Required background

• Several years of experience building and shipping production software
• A strong technical foundation from a CS program or equivalent real world experience
• Experience owning significant product or system areas end to end
• Deep comfort with TypeScript and modern frontend development
• Solid backend fundamentals including data modeling, APIs, and system design
• Strong debugging skills and the ability to reason through complex systems
• Clear written and verbal communication
• A demonstrated ability to learn new domains quickly and apply them in practice
• Experience collaborating deeply with design and product partners
• A track record of mentoring or leading other engineers
• Personal projects or writing that demonstrate taste and initiative
• Interests beyond engineering such as design, writing, economics, or philosophy

Nice to have

• Experience at an early stage or high growth startup
• Experience collaborating deeply with design and product partners
• A track record of mentoring or leading other engineers
• Personal projects or writing that demonstrate taste and initiative
• Interests beyond engineering such as design, writing, economics, or philosophy

Why this role matters
