Senior Full-Stack Engineer

Product Engineer Opportunity At Schoo Links

Most engineers are handed a ticket. At Schoo Links, you own the whole journey.

Our Product Engineers aren't members of a feature team. They are the feature team. You'll start from a problem or a goal, figure out what to build, design the experience, implement it, test it, ship it, and communicate it. No PM to translate for you. No designer to hand you mocks. No QA to catch your bugs before users do. That's not a gap in our process.

It's the role.

We're looking for engineers who get uncomfortable when they're too far from the outcome. Who have opinions about UX, not just code quality. Who find product thinking as natural as system design. Who take it personally when something they built doesn't land with users, and who fix it without being asked.

What this looks like in practice:

• You receive context on a user problem or business goal, not a spec
• You define your own requirements, break down the work, and manage your own scope
• You make design and UX decisions, getting lightweight feedback when useful
• You write the code, write the tests, and hold yourself accountable for quality
• You communicate progress and outcomes directly to stakeholders

This role is probably not for you if you do your best work inside clearly defined tickets, or if you prefer deep specialization over broad ownership. It might be exactly for you if you've always felt constrained by the boundary between "engineering" and "product" and you're ready for a role that erases it.
