We're looking for a hands-on Senior Product Engineer who takes pride in writing excellent code and raises the bar for everyone around them simply by how they work. You'll partner closely with the Head of Engineering and Chief Product & Technology Officer to build scalable, enterprise-grade software.

This is a deeply hands-on role. You'll spend the large majority of your time designing and shipping production code, while bringing the technical judgment, architectural thinking, and craftsmanship that make the whole team better.

• Own the technical delivery of key product initiatives across our Python (FastAPI), React, and Postgres stack.
• Partner closely with the Head of Engineering and Chief Product & Technology Officer to translate product vision into scalable technical solutions.
• Contribute to architecture discussions, code reviews, and design sessions, offering the kind of technical judgment that raises the quality bar for the whole team.
• Make thoughtful tradeoffs between speed, scalability, maintainability, and customer value.
• Build production software as a core individual contributor, setting a high technical standard through your own work.
• Improve engineering practices around testing, observability, deployment, code quality, and operational excellence.
• Work closely with Product, Design, Data Science, and the Forward-Deployed Team to solve complex customer problems.
• Help shape the evolution of our platform by identifying opportunities to simplify systems, improve developer experience, and reduce technical debt.
• Contribute to hiring by helping assess and welcome exceptional engineers who strengthen both our technical capabilities and our culture.

• Technical excellence through action. You enjoy solving difficult technical problems yourself and naturally set a standard others want to meet.
• Strong engineering judgment. You know when to build for the future and when to optimize for speed. You recognize over-engineering just as quickly as accumulating unnecessary technical debt.
• Systems thinking. You naturally zoom out to understand how changes in one part of the platform affect everything downstream—from customer experience to developer productivity.
• Pragmatic execution. You break complex initiatives into achievable milestones, deliver iteratively, and maintain a bias toward shipping.
• Product mindset. You care deeply about the user experience and challenge requirements that don't solve the underlying customer problem.
• Low ego, high standards. You care more about building great software than being the smartest person in the room. You welcome feedback and give it generously.
• Collaborative instincts. You communicate clearly, bring people in early, and help create alignment across Engineering, Product, Design, Data Science, and the Forward-Deployed Teams.
• Intellectual curiosity. You're energized by ambiguity and enjoy learning new technologies, domains, and approaches to solving difficult problems.

• 5+ years of professional software…
