About the role

About the Role

Own the full lifecycle of consumer products, from identifying user opportunities to shipping polished experiences and learning from real-world usage. This role combines product strategy, design, and full-stack engineering, with direct ownership of product quality and user outcomes.

What You'll Do

  • Define product positioning, scope features, and identify the smallest complete version to build.
  • Design consumer experiences, including onboarding flows, interfaces, and product copy.
  • Build frontend and backend systems using TypeScript, React, Next.js, and Node.js.
  • Implement APIs, SQL data models, authentication, payments, and subscriptions.
  • Set up analytics, experimentation, and production monitoring to measure engagement and retention.
  • Deploy products, debug production issues, and maintain reliable core functionality.
  • Use user feedback and retention data to guide iteration and product decisions.
  • Ship polished MVPs or substantial product iterations in approximately 3 to 7 days.

What We're Looking For

  • At least 3 years of experience shipping consumer products end-to-end, including independently launching a live product used by real users.
  • Startup founding or early product engineering experience, with ownership across product decisions, design, and implementation.
  • Strong production experience with TypeScript, React, Next.js, Node.js, APIs, SQL databases, and data modeling.
  • Experience implementing authentication, payments, and subscriptions, and deploying and debugging production applications.
  • Experience designing consumer interfaces and using analytics and experiments to understand engagement and retention.
  • Comfort using AI development tools while maintaining sound architectural judgment and code quality.
  • Consumer apps, social or communication products, and cross-platform development are valuable; experience with tools such as PostHog, React Native, Electron, Flutter, WebRTC, or real-time audio and video is a plus.
