Job description

Role

We're hiring a Product Engineer to join our team and help us scale reliably as we grow. As we add customers, we want to make sure our team's ability to build great new features never gets compromised. This role exists to protect that focus: by strengthening how we catch and resolve issues, and by building the infrastructure that keeps quality high as we scale.

You'll work across our FastAPI (Python) / Postgres / React stack, touching everything from schema design to UI behavior to CI pipelines. This is a high-trust, high-autonomy role for someone who wants real ownership early in their career.

Key responsibilities

  • Triage and resolve incoming customer bugs across single-tenant staging and production environments
  • Work alongside the team to design and build new features and capabilities on our main product
  • Design and build automated test suites that scale across customer environments without becoming their own maintenance burden
  • Work across the full stack (Python/FastAPI backend, Postgres, React frontend) to understand and fix issues at their root cause, not just their symptom

What We Value

  • Analytical thinkers who thrive in ambiguous environments and approach challenges with curiosity and rigor.
  • A customer-centric mindset with a passion for translating complex data into software-led actionable strategies.
  • Team players with low ego and a strong desire to contribute to meaningful outcomes.
  • Proactive learners who adapt quickly and can guide, lead, and collaborate effectively.
  • Exceptional communicators who can engage with stakeholders at every level.

What you bring

  • 2+ years of professional full-stack engineering experience; comfort with Python and React strongly preferred, but we're open to strong candidates from other OOP backgrounds
  • Real SQL fluency. You understand schema design, and you can reason about ingestion to transformation to output pipelines, and the difference between a clean and a messy data model
  • A systems mindset. You naturally zoom out and notice when something upstream or downstream of your own work is drifting out of sync
  • A bias toward pragmatic delivery. You scope before you dive in, break work into shippable increments, and ship at the pace a fast-moving company requires without over-engineering
  • Genuine product and user judgment. You care what the user actually experiences, and you'll question a ticket that looks wrong rather than build it as written
  • Low ego, high standards. You care more about the quality of the outcome than who gets credit, and you take feedback in review without getting defensive
  • Strong collaborative instincts and async communication. You loop people in early, and you write clearly in Slack, PRs, and EOD updates
  • Genuine intellectual curiosity. You're energized rather than destabilized when priorities shift, and you go deep on problems because you can't help it
Success in the First 90 Days

First 30 Days

  • Become familiar with the product, architecture, and development workflows.
  • Contribute through bug fixes, backlog items, and smaller enhancements.
  • Gain exposure to the FastAPI, PostgreSQL, and React stack.
  • Successfully navigate the team's development, review, and deployment processes.
  • Build confidence deploying to staging and production environments.

First 60 Days

  • Take ownership of clearly scoped portions of active product initiatives.
  • Deliver work that integrates effectively with broader team efforts.
  • Demonstrate increasing independence and technical judgment.
  • Develop a deeper understanding of customer needs and product priorities.

First 90 Days

  • Operate as a fully integrated member of the engineering team.
  • Independently deliver meaningful product and engineering work.
  • Contribute across a variety of product areas based on team priorities.
  • Balance feature development, maintenance work, and customer-driven needs with minimal oversight.
  • Consistently deliver work within the team's normal development cadence.
