About this role
Role Overview
- Drive 0→1 product development and iteration
- Build and iterate on new AI-powered product concepts from prototype to production, using rapid feedback loops to validate and refine ideas.
- Partner closely with Product and Design to shape problem definition, test hypotheses, and evolve solutions based on user and business impact.
- Make pragmatic trade-offs between speed and scalability, knowing when to optimize for learning versus long-term durability.
- Own architecture, and scale what works
- Define and evolve architecture for emerging products, enabling a path from early experiments to reliable, scalable systems.
- Lead technical discovery and implementation for ambiguous, high-impact initiatives that span multiple systems.
- Establish patterns, frameworks, and guardrails that allow teams to move quickly without sacrificing quality.
- Act as a technical force multiplier
- Set a high bar for code quality, system design, and operational excellence while maintaining a bias toward action and delivery.
- Unblock teams, navigate cross-team dependencies, and drive alignment in fast-moving, evolving problem spaces.
- Identify technical risks early and shape the roadmap to support both near-term delivery and long-term sustainability, again with heavy influence from AI.
- Lead and influence across teams
- Mentor engineers and provide technical guidance across projects and teams.
- Collaborate with Product, UX, and stakeholders to align on priorities, trade-offs, and outcomes.
- Contribute to a culture of experimentation, learning, and continuous improvement.
Requirements

- Strong experience with one or more of: TypeScript, Java/Kotlin, Go, or similar modern languages, along with relational databases such as Postgres and noSQL solutions like MongoDB.
- Experience building and shipping AI-powered features, such as LLM integrations, copilots, or agent-based workflows, in customer-facing applications.
- Familiarity with AI development platforms and tools such as OpenAI, Claude, Cursor, or similar.
- Proven ability to operate in ambiguous environments and drive solutions from early-stage ideas to production systems.
- Strong systems design skills, with the ability to balance rapid iteration and long-term scalability.
- Experience influencing technical direction beyond your immediate team.
- Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to navigate trade-offs and align stakeholders.
