Product Engineer (Full-Stack) - Selfnamed.com

We're building the platform behind a global on-demand skincare brand - helping entrepreneurs across Europe and the US launch, manufacture, and fulfill their own product lines. We're a small, senior team and we're scaling fast. Our platform needs to keep pace, and so does our team.

We're not looking for a ticket-taker. We're looking for an engineer who thinks like a product owner, writes like a craftsman, and ships like they mean it.

At Selfnamed, we call this a Product Engineer - someone who owns features from the first "why" all the way to production, and who isn't waiting to be told what to build next.

How we work

• Engineers scope their own sprints and propose workload aligned with the product roadmap and company goals - direction comes from the business, execution ownership comes from you
• Major decisions start with a written RFC before any code is written
• We prototype early, demo weekly, and course-correct fast
• Cross-functional by default: backend devs tweak frontend, frontend devs understand the build pipeline

The stack:

• Backend: PHP 8.2 (Yii2 / Laravel), REST APIs, PostgreSQL, MySQL, Redis
• Frontend: Vue.js 3, TypeScript, Vite, Tailwind
• Desktop: Electron, Node.js
• Infra: Docker, Nginx, Cloudflare Workers, CI/CD via GitHub Actions

What you'll own:

• Features end-to-end - API design, DB schema, business logic, and the Vue.js UI to go with it
• Order fulfillment, manufacturing automation, and inventory systems that affect real operations daily
• Your own technical proposals - you scope, you advocate, you deliver
• Code quality: tests (PHPUnit / Vitest), code reviews, and design system fidelity are baseline expectations here, not bonuses

What we're looking for:

• 4+ years in PHP backend development (Yii2, Symfony, or Laravel)
• Comfortable with Vue.js / TypeScript - not a specialist requirement, but you can't be afraid of it
• Solid PostgreSQL skills - schema design and query optimization, not just ORM usage
• Git, Docker, CI/CD feel like second nature
• Strong English - async communication is part of the job
• You have opinions about how software should be built, and you can defend them in writing

Nice to have:

• Experience writing RFCs, ADRs, or similar technical design documents before jumping into implementation
• Hands-on experience delivering features with AI coding agents (Claude Code, Cursor, OpenAI Codex, or similar) - we use these tools and value engineers who use them effectively
• Cloudflare Workers or edge computing experience
• Background in e-commerce, fulfillment, or logistics systems

What we offer:

• Competitive salary based on experience
• Health insurance after trial period
• Hybrid: 2 days on-site in Mārupe + flexible hours
• A small, senior team where your decisions have real, visible impact
• Opportunity to work across multiple products - from our core platform to fulfilment APIs and desktop tooling
• Learning budget covering courses, books, workshops, mentoring, and industry events
• Lunch compensation via Bonus Karte
• Staff discounts on our own skincare and cosmetics products
