Product Engineer

Paraform

The Role

We have 15 engineers and close to 9 figures in revenue. That ratio is intentional. Every engineer at Paraform plays a massive role in shaping the direction of the business. We're looking for product engineers who think like builders, not just coders.

That means you're someone who can look at a problem our team is facing, figure out what to build, and ship it end to end. You'll have the autonomy to discover the problems worth solving, design the solutions, and own the outcomes. The surface area of unsolved problems here is enormous, and we need people who find that energizing rather than overwhelming.

What You'll Work On

Our product spans three major areas, each with deep, compounding challenges:

  • Marketplace: Build the systems that acquire and match candidates at scale. Improve the experience for both companies and recruiters, and help us build towards a self-sustaining marketplace.

  • AI Matching: Use the immense amount of data that we capture across our platform to build agentic recruiting systems that surface strong matches between candidates, companies, and recruiters.

  • Recruiting OS: Build the tools that make Paraform the place where recruiters do their best work (Recruiter CRM, AI-assisted workflows, and deep integrations that remove friction from every step of the process)

What We're Looking For
  • Product-minded: You form strong opinions about what to build and why, informed by user behavior, data, and first-principles thinking

  • Business-minded: You think about impact in terms of revenue, retention, and market dynamics, not just shipped features

  • Technically sharp: You can move fast across the stack without sacrificing quality where it matters

  • High ownership: You identify what needs to exist, make the plan, and go build it

Your work will directly shape how companies hire and how thousands of people find their next role. If you want to operate at the intersection of product, engineering, and business, this is the job for you.

About Paraform:

Paraform is a marketplace modernizing one of the largest and most fragmented markets in the world: hiring. We partner with industry leaders like Cursor, Palantir, Windsurf, Decagon, Shopify, Coinbase, and Hightouch to hire world-class talent, and are growing quickly - 8×-ing revenue last year.

Paraform is the first end-to-end AI recruiting marketplace that connects companies with thousands of specialized recruiters and AI agents that work together to fill roles faster and more accurately.

Our mission is to make hiring fast, reliable, and scalable for every company in the world.

At Paraform, we believe recruiting works best when the right people are working on the right problems, combining human judgment with AI that truly understands hiring. That's why we're building a new foundation for how companies hire, bringing together specialized recruiters and modern AI tools.

We treat recruiters like entrepreneurs, not vendors – and we're building the financial, operational, and technical infrastructure that powers their success.

We are backed by the best investors and technology leaders: Felicis, A*, BOND, Liquid 2, DST Global, the founders of YouTube, Instacart, Canva, and more.
