Full Stack Product Engineer

ABOUT THE COMPANY

Our client is a well-funded AI product company building a “second brain” for senior HR leaders and their teams. Its platform combines AI, people analytics, and a professional network used by thousands of C-level executives.

We're looking for a Fullstack Product Engineer who wants to:

• Own features end-to-end, from deeply understanding the customer problem to shipping the feature and driving its usage & adoption.
• Work across the entire stack (React, TypeScript, NestJS, PostgreSQL).
• Ship fast & high quality;you believe speed vs. quality is a false choice, and in fact you can increase both in lockstep.
• Work directly with customers: from hopping on calls, to debugging their problems, and then iterating based on real feedback
• Craft positive-sum engineering practices that increase velocity.
• Become one of the first 3 engineers in the AI & Analytics pod

This is only an in-person role (4-5 days/week) in NYC. The company has a beautiful office in a 1,000+ ft skyscraper in the heart of Hudson Yards, New York.

TECH STACK

• Frontend: React, TypeScript, Vite
• Backend: NestJS, TypeScript
• Data: PostgreSQL, Redis
• Infrastructure: AWS, GitHub Actions
• Observability: Sentry, New Relic
• AI Dev Tools: Cursor, Claude Code (or similar)

Nice to have: SQL proficiency and experience working with data warehouses (the team use Snowflake for analytics).

CANDIDATE CRITERIA

• You have 2-6 years building and shipping product.You've worked on real products with real users. You've felt the pain of production issues and learned from them.
• You're strong across the stack.You can build a React component, write a backend service, and debug a database query. You might be stronger in one area, but you're not helpless in any of them.
• You genuinely enjoy customer interaction. You've been on customer calls before and found them valuable, not painful. You understand that great products come from deeply understanding user problems.
• Strong SQL knowledge is a plus.We build querying engines on top of Snowflake data—if you're comfortable writing and optimizing complex queries, that's a big advantage.
• You're AI-native and AI-augmented.Cursor, Claude Code, AI-assisted reviews—these have fundamentally changed how you work. You're constantly experimenting with new AI tools and have opinions on what's worth adopting. If you're still coding the way you did in 2022, this isn't the right fit.
• You have an owner's mindset. Self-driven, resourceful, ready to build and be in the trenches. You don't need to be managed; you need to be pointed at problems.
• You've worked in high-intensity environments.Startups, high-growth teams, or any context where speed and quality both mattered.
• You're a positive influence on every team you've been on. Low ego, high standards

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Ship features end-to-end from problem understanding to production, across frontend and backend
• Talk to customers regularly: join calls, gather feedback, and translate their problems into solutions
• Write code that lasts with tests, edge case handling, and clear documentation
• Review code thoughtfully and hold the bar on quality for the team
• Debug production issues and make sure they don't happen again
• Help cultivate engineering culture as one of the founding engineers of this pod
