Lead Product Engineer

About the Role

Join a lean engineering team building an internal product for an industrial real estate investment business. As its first product-focused engineer, you will own the front end and help turn early prototypes into tools that support investment decisions.

What You'll Do

• Refactor and own the existing front-end codebase, establish a reusable design system, and deliver new product features.

• Build data-rich user experiences, including charts, maps, and AI-powered insights.

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

• Use design tools and AI tools to prototype interfaces, develop product ideas, and help shape the roadmap with leadership.

• Partner with backend and research colleagues to develop tools for additional business functions.

What We're Looking For

• Four to ten years of frontend-heavy experience building and shipping production applications, including substantial product ownership from scoping through deployment.

• Strong React and Next.js experience, with a track record of delivering complete user-facing products.

• Experience building enterprise and data-intensive products, such as data visualizations, charts, maps, or analytical insights.

• Experience with Figma or similar design tools, and with AI coding or design tools for prototyping and shipping features.

• Comfort working directly with users and stakeholders to gather feedback and synthesize requirements.

• A computer science degree or equivalent strong CS foundation, and experience on a high-performing engineering team.

• Interest in applying technology to real estate or other complex, data-rich industries.
