Sage Recruiting

Senior Product Engineer

About Sage Recruiting's Client

Sage Recruiting's client is an early-stage, venture-backed technology company building the next generation of collaboration infrastructure for technical knowledge work. Their vision is to create a platform that extends modern software development workflows beyond code, enabling teams to version, organize, and collaborate on all forms of knowledge.

The company is led by experienced technical founders and backed by prominent investors with deep expertise in developer infrastructure and AI. They are tackling complex engineering challenges at the intersection of developer tools, distributed systems, and AI-assisted software development.

The Role

Our client is seeking a product-minded software engineer with exceptional technical depth and strong product instincts. This role is ideal for someone who combines systems engineering expertise with thoughtful design and user experience. Successful candidates have well-developed opinions on version control, AI-assisted development, distributed systems, and modern software architecture.

As a Senior Product Engineer, you'll own meaningful portions of the product across the entire stack, from infrastructure and backend systems to frontend experiences, developer tooling, and documentation. You'll define and drive projects independently, work closely with customers to understand their needs, communicate progress clearly, and proactively identify opportunities to improve both the product and engineering organization.
