Senior Product Engineer (North America)

About The Role

We’re hiring a Senior Product Engineer (Full-Stack) to own complex, user-facing systems end-to-end. This is not a single-layer role — you’ll work across frontend UX, backend systems, APIs, and data models, making pragmatic trade-offs between product velocity, scalability, and long-term maintainability. You’ll partner closely with the founders to design, build, and evolve core AI-powered workflows, acting as both a strong technical owner and a product thinker.

What You’ll Do

• Own product features from concept and UX through backend systems and production launch
• Design scalable backend architectures, APIs, async pipelines, and AI inference workflows
• Lead system design with a focus on performance, reliability, and extensibility
• Design clean, scalable data models across SQL and NoSQL systems
• Build polished frontend experiences using React / Next.js
• Make and clearly communicate technical trade-offs
• Collaborate closely with Product, Design, and GTM
• Mentor engineers and raise the overall engineering bar
• Influence architecture, tooling, and engineering best practices

What We’re Looking For

• Core: Strong full-stack experience shipping production systems at scale
• Able to independently design and ship end-to-end features
• Strong system design and data modeling skills
• Experience with relational and NoSQL databases (e.g. PostgreSQL, Redis, Firestore)
• Backend experience with Node.js and/or Python
• Frontend experience with React / Next.js
• High product intuition and comfort operating in ambiguity

Nice to Have

• Experience with AI-powered or data-heavy products
• Cloud-native architecture experience (GCP, serverless, containers)
• Startup experience or ownership of large product surfaces

Tech Stack

• React / Next.js
• Node.js / TypeScript
• Python
• GCP
• Cloud Run
• Modal
• Firebase
• Redis
• Upstash

Compensation

~$300k total compensation (base salary, bonus, equity)

Meaningful equity ownership

High-autonomy, high-growth environment

Work Setup

• Bay Area preferred (hybrid allowed)
• North America remote considered
• Visa sponsorship available

What Success Looks Like In 3–6 Months

• Shipped multiple features users love
• Lauched at least one AI-powered user flow end-to-end
• Built tight feedback loops with founders, design, and real users
• Proactively shaping product and engineering direction
