About the Role

We are seeking a versatile, persistent product engineer who can build reusable components across the tech stack and advocate for the time to do so. As a Product Engineer, you will own a large portion of one of our products, taking projects end‑to‑end from research and design to implementation and release.

Responsibilities

• Own large features – from concept to shipping – wearing hats traditionally held by product and design teams.


• Research competitors, write product specs, create wireframes, and design user interfaces.


• Implement end‑to‑end solutions, including backend logic, database schemas, and front‑end components.


• Build and maintain reusable building blocks (e.g., declarative filter architecture, signing‑off flow).


• Collaborate with designers, product managers, and other engineers to integrate features.


• Provide mock/research-based prototypes to validate concepts with customers.

Qualifications

• Strong full‑stack engineering skills and a willingness to tackle any part of the stack.


• Experience delivering features with significant product and technical ambiguity.


• Ability to balance speed and quality, delivering high‑quality code at an ambitious pace.


• Excellent communication and collaboration skills; able to vet decisions with stakeholders.


• Proactive in creating leverage through automation, tooling, and abstraction.


• Prior ownership of end‑to‑end projects and a desire to grow independently.

Benefits

• Competitive salary and equity.


• 10‑year exercise window for stock options.


• Unlimited PTO, with encouragement to use it.


• Minimum 12 weeks fully paid parental leave.


• Generous equipment, software, and office furniture budget.


• $100/month education budget for conferences and learning.


• Top‑tier health insurance in the US (100% premiums paid) and high‑quality supplemental coverage in other regions.

Interview Process

• Introduction call with Hiring Manager (15–30 minutes).


• Technical screen: pair programming in our codebase (1 hour).


• Three non‑coding interviews focused on product thinking, technical design, and infrastructure (≈3 h 15 min total).


• Optionally, an additional 30‑minute recruiter screen depending on bandwidth.
