Senior/Staff Product Engineer (m/f/x)

About this role

Responsibilities

• We're looking for an experienced engineer who's happy anywhere in the stack and turns complex audit workflows into product auditors rely on every day. You pick up whatever a problem needs, from the data model to the interface to the agents behind it.
• A lot of what we build has no reference implementation. You're comfortable wading into something nobody has solved yet and shipping a first version that actually works.
• Our engineering team is a small, flat group of builders: strong ICs who open a laptop when they see a problem instead of scheduling a meeting. Everyone owns real product and architecture decisions, and that's exactly what we want more of.
• Build the interfaces auditors work in, partnering with design to turn complex flows into something that feels effortless
• Build and improve the agents at the core of the product, plus the harnesses and eval pipelines around them
• Make the long-running workflows behind the product reliable
