Product Engineer (Platform)

Requirements and responsibilities

Readable role content extracted into sections for faster review.

Responsibilities

  • Own product initiatives end to end: from problem definition through spec, build, rollout, measurement, and iteration.

Responsibilities

  • Turn ambiguous customer and operational problems (provisioning, reliability, scalability, observability, deployment, pricing, usage) into clear plans and measurable outcomes.

Responsibilities

  • Build backend services, APIs, internal tools, and customer-facing capabilities that make blockchain infrastructure easier to provision, operate, and scale.

Responsibilities

  • Spot friction, reliability risks, scaling limits, and missed opportunities, then drive practical fixes from concept to production.

Responsibilities

  • Define and improve the metrics that matter: activation, adoption, provisioning time, deployment success rate, operational cost, incident frequency, support volume, retention.

Responsibilities

  • Use AI across the workflow (research, specs, implementation, testing, analysis) to move faster, with a high bar for verifying what it produces.

Responsibilities

  • Work across product, engineering, DevOps, support, and sales, and communicate decisions, trade-offs, and risks clearly in writing.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of software engineering, ideally in backend, product, platform, or distributed-systems roles.

Requirements

  • A track record of owning projects end to end: discovery, design, build, test, deploy, measure, iterate.

Requirements

  • Strong product sense. You connect technical work to customer value, commercial impact, and measurable outcomes.

Requirements

  • Solid backend experience building production services, APIs, and integrations in a modern language.

Requirements

  • Real understanding of distributed systems, asynchronous and event-driven architecture, and the reliability trade-offs.

Requirements

  • Hands-on with at least one message broker or event-streaming tool (NATS, Kafka, RabbitMQ, or similar).

Requirements

  • Experience designing, deploying, and operating services in Kubernetes and containerized environments.

Requirements

  • Comfortable operating what you ship: CI/CD, observability, and basic production ownership.

Requirements

  • A practical AI-native workflow. You use coding and research agents and debugging assistants to speed up design, implementation, testing, and analysis, without dropping your bar for correctness.

Requirements

  • Excellent written and spoken English.
