Product Engineer

A rapidly growing investment platform managing billions in assets is hiring a Lead Product Engineer to build and own its next generation of internal software products.
This is a rare opportunity to join as the founding product engineering hire and define the technology experience across the business. The firm is transitioning from off-the-shelf tools to a proprietary platform that will power investment decision-making, portfolio operations, reporting, and mission-critical business workflows.
Unlike a traditional startup, the business already operates at significant scale with substantial resources behind it. You'll get the ownership, autonomy, and greenfield scope typically associated with an early-stage company, while benefiting from the stability and long-term backing of a well-capitalized platform.
The Opportunity
This role is ideal for engineers who love building beautiful products, creating scalable design systems, and taking ownership of 0-to-1 initiatives. You'll have the freedom and influence of a founding engineer while benefiting from the resources, stability, and growth trajectory of an already successful business.
You'll work directly with business stakeholders to identify opportunities, design solutions, and rapidly build products that become central to how the organization operates. Rather than joining an existing team with a mature roadmap, you'll have significant influence over what gets built, how it gets built, and how users interact with it.
A major focus of the role will be establishing the foundation for future product development, including creating a scalable design system, reusable component library, and frontend architecture that will support multiple applications across the organization.
What You'll Do

• Own the design, development, and adoption of the firm's proprietary product suite.
• Build user-facing applications from concept through production.
• Lead multiple greenfield initiatives and launch products from scratch.
• Design intuitive user experiences for complex operational and business workflows.
• Develop and maintain a scalable design system and reusable UI component library.
• Partner directly with end users to understand workflows, gather feedback, and rapidly iterate.
• Prototype new ideas using modern AI-assisted development tools.
• Help define engineering standards, product strategy, and technical direction as the platform grows.

What We're Looking For

• 5+ years of experience building production software products.
• Strong frontend expertise with React and/or Next.js.
• Experience building or owning design systems, component libraries, or shared frontend platforms.
• Track record of shipping products from idea to production.
• Strong product intuition and UI/UX sensibilities.
• Experience working directly with business stakeholders and translating ambiguity into scalable products.
• Familiarity with Figma or similar design tools.
• Heavy user of modern AI development tools.
• High ownership mentality and bias toward action.
