Full-Stack Product Engineer, AI Tools

Role Description

Aperture OS is an internal tool we've built to give us an operational edge. It helps us track performance, manage creative workflows, and surface insights across our client portfolio in ways that off-the-shelf tools don't. Now we want to scale it.

We're looking for someone to own it. Not manage it. Own it.

You will be the primary engineer and technical decision-maker for Aperture OS. You'll define what it becomes, how it's built, and how it serves the team. You'll work directly with the founder and client teams to understand what's needed and build it — properly.

This is a serious ownership opportunity at a fast-moving company that knows what it wants and gives its people room to deliver it.

What you'll own

• The full Aperture OS codebase — architecture, quality, and evolution.
• Feature development end-to-end: scoping, building, shipping, iterating.
• API integrations — pulling data from ad platforms, creative tools, and internal systems.
• AI and LLM integrations — we use AI heavily in our creative and analysis workflows.
• Database design and data modelling as the product grows.
• Infrastructure, hosting, and deployment — keeping things running reliably.
• Security, access control, and compliance for a multi-client environment.

Qualifications

• Proven track record shipping with AI-first development tools: Lovable, Cursor, or similar.
• Experience owning a full codebase, not just contributing to one.
• Strong command of TypeScript and React on the frontend; and serverless/edge functions for backend logic.
• Good working knowledge of Supabase for authentication and database (Postgres).
• Experience integrating third-party APIs, especially AI and LLM APIs.
• Solid working knowledge of DNS, domain management, SSL/TLS, and hosting configuration.
• Experience scaling systems in a multi-tenant SaaS environment, with asynchronous processing such as worker fleets, pub/sub, queues and streams.
• A sensible approach to testing: you know what needs a test and what doesn't.
• You think about security and data compliance as you build, not as an afterthought.
• Strong product instincts: you know the difference between something that works and something that is right.
• Ability to set priorities and make tradeoffs without constant direction.
• Familiarity with performance marketing, ad creative testing, or growth tooling.

Requirements

• Comfortable with ambiguity and thrive in environments where the spec isn't always written in advance.
• Ability to move quickly when speed is needed and slow down when precision matters.
• Care about the product you're building, not just the code.
• Experience in a startup or early-stage environment.
• Use AI tools in your daily workflow — not as a crutch, but as a force multiplier.
• Genuine curiosity about performance marketing, growth, or adtech.
• Feel ownership when something breaks at 2am.

Benefits

• Work from anywhere, with flexibility around how you structure your day.
• Regular team meetups and events.
• Travel to team meetups covered.
• Direct exposure to a fast-growing business and its founder.
• Real ownership of a product people use every day.
• A high-trust role with responsibility from day one.
