Senior Product Engineer

Senior Product Engineer

Our AI start-up client is looking for a Senior Product Engineer with strong full-stack capability to help drive the next phase of their platform’s development. This position combines hands-on feature creation with responsibility for strengthening the broader technical foundations. You will work across both front-end and back-end components, collaborate closely with product and engineering teams, and contribute to a culture that values clarity, initiative, and fast delivery. Familiarity with cloud environments and modern tooling will be useful, though deep specialism in any single area is not required.

This opportunity is well suited to someone who operates confidently with autonomy, naturally identifies areas that need attention and enjoys contributing in a fast-moving, low-structure environment. The ideal background includes several years of software engineering experience; time spent in early-stage start-ups and a broad full-stack toolkit. You should bring a strong product mindset that shapes how you approach technical decisions, be comfortable working on high-performance systems and feel confident navigating data-rich applications and complex datasets. Adaptability, pragmatism, and clear communication will be important, particularly when priorities shift. Familiarity with Kubernetes or similar orchestration tools is beneficial but not essential, and exposure to large language model technologies such as retrieval-augmented approaches or prompt design would be a welcome advantage.

The core technologies you will work with include:

• Typescript and modern JavaScript
• Python for services and backend development
• React or comparable front-end frameworks
• AWS or other cloud environments
• Docker for containerisation
• Kubernetes or similar orchestration tools
• Workflow automation platforms
• Databases suited to high-volume or large-scale data
• APIs, microservices and event-driven architectures

Your responsibilities will involve delivering full-stack features, collaborating daily with the team to move shared goals forward, releasing improvements quickly and continually assessing systems and processes to identify enhancements. You will help automate manual workflows, reduce operational friction and contribute ideas that help shape the longer-term product and technical direction.
