Lead Product Engineer

About the Role

Join a lean, senior team building a new internal product for an industrial real estate investment business. As its first product-focused engineer, you will own the front end and help replace off-the-shelf tools with data-rich experiences that support investment decisions.

What You'll Do

• Own the front-end codebase and ship full-stack features from initial concept through deployment.

• Build user-facing experiences such as charts, maps, and AI-powered insights using complex data.

• Work directly with internal users to understand workflows, gather requirements, test prototypes, and incorporate feedback quickly.

• Design and prototype interfaces using Figma or AI tools, propose product ideas, and help shape the roadmap with leadership.

• Collaborate daily with the technical lead and research leadership.

What We're Looking For

• Four to ten years of front-end-focused experience building and shipping production applications, including experience with React and Next.js.

• Experience owning product development from scoping through deployment across substantial project areas, and delivering complete user-facing products.

• Background building enterprise products and data-intensive interfaces, including visualizations, charts, maps, or insights.

• At least two years at a large technology company or top-tier growth-stage startup.

• Experience with Figma or similar design tools, and AI coding or design tools for rapid prototyping and delivery.

• Strong computer science fundamentals and an engineering-focused career path.

• Ability to work directly with users and stakeholders to gather feedback and turn it into clear product requirements.
