Senior Product Engineer

We’re looking for a Senior Product Engineer—a single, broad role that combines domain

understanding, technical fluency, and architectural judgment, leveraging AI tools to deliver end-

to-end across the stack. Product Engineers own features from concept through production:

shaping requirements with business partners, designing the architecture, building the UI and

backend, and integrating data and services.

This isn’t a traditional “full-stack developer” role. It’s a role for engineers who want to own

outcomes, not just tickets—who can sit with a business user, understand the problem, make

sound architectural decisions, and deliver a working solution that’s production-ready and

maintainable.

This role begins as a consulting engagement with a right-to-hire path.

What You’ll Do

• Own features end-to-end: from discovery and requirements shaping through

architecture, implementation, testing, and production deployment.

• Partner directly with business stakeholders to understand workflows, pain points, and

desired outcomes—then translate that into well-scoped, deliverable solutions.

• Make sound architectural decisions: choose the right patterns, data models, and

integration approaches based on business context and technical tradeoffs.

• Build across the stack: backend services (Java/Spring), frontend components (Vue.js),

API contracts, and data integrations.

• Leverage modern AI development tools (Claude Code, MCP, LLM APIs) to accelerate

delivery—prototyping, code generation, analysis, and testing—while maintaining strong

engineering judgment and validation.

• Contribute to platform quality: code reviews, testing discipline, observability, and

documentation where it adds leverage.

• Mentor mid-level engineers through design conversations, pairing, and code

review—raising the team’s ability to deliver independently.

• Navigate ambiguity: make pragmatic decisions with incomplete information and adjust

course as understanding deepens.

What We’re Looking For

• 8+ years of software engineering experience with demonstrated ability to deliver features

end-to-end across backend and frontend.

• Strong proficiency in Python and Java, with sound architectural instincts (when to build

vs. reuse, how to decompose services, when to simplify).

• Fluency with modern AI development tools (Claude Code, MCP servers, LLM APIs) and

an ability to use them productively while maintaining quality and correctness.

• Experience working directly with business stakeholders—not just taking tickets, but

shaping requirements and validating solutions.

• The business context to make the right tradeoffs: you understand that technical

decisions have business consequences and vice versa.

• Strong communication skills: you can explain technical decisions to non-technical

partners and advocate for engineering quality without creating friction.

• A builder’s mindset: you prefer shipping working software over perfecting designs, while

maintaining the quality bar for production systems.

• Experience in financial services, investment management

Nice to Have

• Familiarity with Vue.js or a modern frontend framework (React acceptable if you can

ramp quickly on Vue).

• Experience with event-driven architecture, workflow orchestration, or data pipeline

design.

• A track record of building internal tools or platforms that make other teams more

productive.
