  • Own significant product areas end-to-end, from ideation through to deployment and iteration.
  • Operate in a high-leverage environment, using modern AI coding tools like Cursor, Claude Code, or Codex daily.
  • Contribute across the full stack, ensuring robust and scalable solutions for a platform serving hundreds of thousands of users.

What You Bring

  • 3+ years of engineering experience at a product-driven company.
  • Proven experience shipping agentic or AI-powered features in production, navigating non-deterministic systems.
  • Full-stack fluency: Next.js, Node, Postgres, Stripe, AWS.
