About the Role

We're looking for talented and versatile Product Engineers to join our team. In this role, you'll build end-to-end products — from front-end interfaces through the APIs and services that power them — that make sophisticated workflows simple for our users. You'll work closely with product, design, and engineering teams to translate complex requirements into elegant, high-quality experiences, moving fluidly across the stack to get the job done.

We are looking for talented Engineers who bring strong technical depth in React and TypeScript (and are comfortable working further down the stack when needed), a sharp product sense, and a passion for building software that makes sophisticated workflows feel intuitive.

What You'll Do

Build, ship, and maintain high-quality product features with full ownership from design through production, working across the front end and, as needed, the services that support it

Enable operations teams to move fast by building the right abstractions and tools that provide safe use of agent workflows

Collaborate with designers, product managers, and engineers to define and implement solutions that push the product forward

Contribute to architecture decisions across the stack — advocating for scalability, maintainability, and clean code principles

Drive best practices for accessibility, responsiveness, and cross-browser compatibility within your team

Design and build APIs and services where a feature calls for it, ensuring a clean contract between front end and back end

Participate in and contribute to code reviews, raising the quality bar across the codebase

Proactively identify technical challenges and propose solutions to improve the product engineering ecosystem

Troubleshoot and resolve performance and production issues across the stack

Work a hybrid schedule with at least three days per week in San Francisco, CA office or in our New York City office.

What We're Looking For

We are hiring for Product Engineers at several levels, but the core experience is below:

4+ years of professional experience in software engineering, with strong depth in React and TypeScript and solid full-stack or front-end fundamentals

Solid understanding of HTML5, CSS3, and modern CSS frameworks (e.g., Tailwind)

Experience with state management libraries (e.g., Redux, React Context API)

Comfort designing and consuming RESTful APIs, and enough back-end fluency (Node.js, Python, or similar) to build or extend a service when a feature requires it

Experience with responsive design, adaptive design, and accessibility standards (WCAG)

Proven track record delivering high-quality, scalable, and maintainable code in a product environment

Strong communication skills — able to articulate technical decisions clearly to cross-functional partners

Ability to prototype and iterate quickly on sophisticated user workflows

Comfortable working independently and making scoped technical decisions

Experience collaborating in an agile, cross-functional team environment

Nice to Have

Experience with design systems and building reusable component libraries

Familiarity with server-side rendering frameworks (e.g., Next.js)

Experience with performance optimization for web applications

Prior work in developer tools or data-heavy product environments

Experience owning a feature across the full stack, from database or service layer through UI
