Product Engineer

Overview

The Product Engineer on the Horizon team plays a critical role in advancing platform capabilities through a combination of building new, next‑generation solutions and evolving existing technology. This role is responsible for translating complex operational workflows into intuitive, reliable, and production‑ready software. Working across the stack, this individual partners closely with Product, Engineering, and domain Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) to gain a deep understanding of user needs and rapidly turn that understanding into high‑quality product experiences that feel innovative, natural, and trustworthy.

This role contributes to the development and evolution of core systems, spanning net‑new capabilities and enhancements to existing technology across frontend, backend, data, and cloud infrastructure within a regulated, high‑stakes environment. Success requires strong product instincts, sound technical depth, and the ability to move quickly from ambiguity to prototype to production. The Product Engineer ensures that what is delivered is not only technically sound but also aligned with business intent, operational realities, and user expectations, raising the bar for product quality, system reliability, and velocity as the platform continues to evolve.

This is a fully remote position that offers a competitive salary range of $140,000 to $180,000, plus an annual bonus.
