About the role

About the Role

Own product development end to end at a growth-stage SaaS company serving merchants. You will identify customer problems, shape product decisions, build polished experiences, and ship improvements directly to production.

What You'll Do

  • Take features from problem definition through frontend and backend implementation to production.

  • Speak with customers, review session replays, and use firsthand feedback to understand their needs.

  • Make product and user-flow decisions, not just implementation choices.

  • Build considered, high-quality interfaces and maintain a codebase that is welcoming to future engineers.

What We're Looking For

  • Four to eight years of product engineering experience, with a track record of independently owning features from problem definition through launch.

  • Hands-on experience with TypeScript, React, and Node.js, including ownership of both frontend and backend work.

  • Strong product and UI craft, with examples of thoughtful interface design.

  • Experience at a growth-stage startup; venture-backed startup experience is preferred.

  • Experience using AI-assisted development tools and familiarity with e-commerce or commerce platforms are valued.

  • A computer science degree or equivalent strong CS fundamentals, and experience in engineering environments with high standards.
