About the Company

A seed-stage AI-native commerce platform bundling every merchant tool natively with an AI agent as the primary interface, already serving tens of thousands of users.

The Role

This seat is for a product engineer who is tired of waiting on specs and wants the whole loop. You will own product surfaces end to end, design sensibility included: take a rough problem, decide what to build, build it, ship it, and talk to the merchants who use it, then do it again the next week.

What You Will Do

• Own features from problem to production across frontend and backend.
• Work directly with customers: join calls, watch session replays and feel their pain firsthand.
• Make product calls, not just implementation calls.
• Hold a high bar on craft so the UI feels considered.
• Keep the codebase something the next five engineers want to work in.

What You Bring

• Strong full-stack product engineering in TypeScript, React and Node.js
• Design sensibility and product judgment
• Comfort working directly with customers
• Ability to work on-site in San Francisco
• US work authorization without sponsorship
