What you'll build

Responsible for building and maintaining product features across their full lifecycle: from initial technical design to implementation, deployment and monitoring. You’ll work across the frontend and backend, and collaborate closely with founders to ship customer-facing features with real impact.

  • Product features used daily by professionals. Built in React, TypeScript and Python
  • A clean frontend UX: responsive, accessible, fast, and reactive to real-time data
  • Backend APIs that are clean, consistent and performant using Django (django-ninja) and Pydantic
  • A database model optimized for complex workflows, high-frequency queries and AI interfacing
  • Observability of the features you own.
  • Foundations for AI-native interfaces (RAG, agents, orchestration logic) woven into the product layer, not bolted on
