## Description

We are seeking a senior, product-minded software engineer to own ambiguous 0-to-1 work from idea through prototype, validation, and handoff. This is a full-stack role with a strong frontend and product emphasis: you will build the interfaces and supporting backend systems needed to test new experiences quickly, while making sound architectural choices that enable successful concepts to scale.

Responsibilities:

- Build and ship high-quality, product experiments across the full stack.

- Turn ambiguous user needs and emerging technical capabilities into testable product concepts, using research and metrics to guide iteration.

- Own technical direction for 0-to-1 projects, balancing speed, reliability, and a clear path from prototype to scalable product.

- Partner closely with design, product, research, and engineering teams to dogfood, evaluate, launch, and transition successful experiments.

Requirements:

- Have a track record of building and shipping end-to-end products in fast-moving, startup, founder-led, growth, or other high-ownership environments.

- Bring strong frontend engineering skills and enough backend and systems depth to make sound full-stack architectural decisions.

- Pair product intuition with evidence, using user research and product data to identify opportunities and make pragmatic tradeoffs.

- Operate with a high degree of autonomy, move quickly through ambiguity, and create lightweight structure where little exists.

- Communicate clearly across disciplines and are willing to learn whatever is needed to move a product forward.

Compensation:

- $295K – $445K • Offers Equity

- Medical, dental, and vision insurance for you and your family, with employer contributions to Health Savings Accounts

- Pre-tax accounts for Health FSA, Dependent Care FSA, and commuter expenses (parking and transit)

- 401(k) retirement plan with employer match

- Paid parental leave (up to 24 weeks for birth parents and 20 weeks for non-birthing parents), plus paid medical and caregiver leave (up to 8 weeks)

- Paid time off: flexible PTO for exempt employees and up to 15 days annually for non-exempt employees

- 13+ paid company holidays, and multiple paid coordinated company office closures throughout the year for focus and recharge, plus paid sick or safe time

- Mental health and wellness support

- Employer-paid basic life and disability coverage

- Annual learning and development stipend to fuel your professional growth

- Daily meals in our offices, and meal delivery credits as eligible

- Relocation support for eligible employees

- Additional taxable fringe benefits, such as charitable donation matching and wellness stipends, may also be provided.
