Product Engineer (Full Stack) Remote: North AmericaRuby on Rails + ReactHigh Ownership | Small Team | Real Revenue | Real Impact
About Wizeprep Wizeprep is building the most effective student success platform in North America.
For over 10 years, we’ve supported high school students, university students, and future doctors, lawyers, and dentists at every major academic milestone, from course prep and SAT/ACT performance to LSAT, MCAT, and DAT mastery and professional school admissions.
On the product side, we are intentionally small.
Today, it is just our CTO/Co-Founder, a Designer and a Product Manager.
We are hiring our second engineer.
This is a rare chance to meaningfully shape a product that already serves hundreds of thousands of students and is positioned to scale much further.
The Role We don’t hire engineers to close tickets.
We hire engineers to solve meaningful problems.
As a Product Engineer at Wizeprep, you will own problems end to end:
Talk to support to understand why tutors are struggling with a workflow
Identify friction in a student’s prep journey
Design the backend solution in Rails
Build the frontend in React
Ship
Iterate based on real feedback
There are few blockers to ship quickly.
No sprint theater.
No endless Slack debates.
If something meaningfully improves the product and helps students win, we build it.
This role requires autonomy, judgment, and product taste.
What You’ll Own Building and shipping full-stack features in a Rails monolith + React frontend
Improving core student and tutor workflows
Contributing to architecture and technical direction
Making pragmatic decisions that balance speed and quality
Identifying and fixing UX friction without waiting to be told
Helping scale a profitable product responsibly
You will directly influence product direction. Your decisions will matter.




Our Stack We keep things simple and pragmatic so we can move quickly.
Backend: Ruby on Rails (Monolith)Frontend: ReactInfrastructure: HerokuPlanning: Notion + direct discussion
We optimize for clarity, maintainability, and shipping velocity.
Why This Role Is Different Extreme Autonomy We operate with roughly 1–2 hours of synchronous meetings per week. The rest of your time is deep work.
Real User Impact You are building tools that help students improve grades, increase test scores, and gain admission to competitive programs.
Stability + Builder Energy We have a decade of product-market fit and real revenue.
At the same time, the product team is small enough that your work defines the platform’s future.
High Leverage As engineer #2, you are not a small cog in a large machine. You are a core part of it.
Who You Are 5+ years building production web applications (Rails + React preferred, or equivalent stack experience)
Comfortable owning features end to end
Product-minded with strong UX instincts
Biased toward shipping and iterating
Able to make trade-offs without over-engineering
Self-directed and comfortable operating without micromanagement
Motivated by impact, not process theater
You likely enjoy small teams, high trust, and high responsibility.
Interview Process We respect your time and focus on real signal.
Intro Call (30 minutes)Conversation with our CTO about your experience and how you like to build.
Founder Conversation (30 minutes)Discussion with our CEO about vision, ambition, and long-term alignment.
Paid Work Trial
A multi-day paid project inside our real codebase.
You see how we operate. We see how you think and ship.
No Leetcode. No whiteboard puzzles.
Compensation Competitive salary
Meaningful equity
Fully remote within Canada or the United States
Flexible hours focused on outcomes, not face time
