Software Engineer (Product)

• 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

• 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
