Product Engineer (Design-First, Frontend-Capable)

About BlueAlpha

BlueAlpha is rewriting how marketing technology is built. We’re building an AI-native operating system where specialized agents optimize across messy, multi-platform marketing data. That means unifying data pipelines, applied machine learning, and automated decision‑making into one system marketers can actually trust and use. We move fast, challenge ideas (not people), and ship with high standards and low ego. If you want to push agentic AI into real production and build a product people love using, this is your seat.

Role Overview

We’re hiring a design-first Product Engineer —someone who cares obsessively about craft, usability, and clarity, and can also build (or is excited to learn) frontend to bring experiences to life.

You’ll sit at the intersection of product, design, and engineering. You’ll take ambiguous problems ("marketers don’t trust model outputs") and turn them into interfaces that are simple, fast, and confidence‑building. You’ll ship end‑to‑end product work: interaction design, UI implementation, iteration with users, and polish.

This isn’t a “make it pretty” role and it isn’t a “pure frontend” role either. It’s: design it, build it, iterate it, own it.

What You’ll Work On

• Turning complex AI + measurement workflows into clear, usable product flows
• Building trust in model recommendations (explanations, uncertainty, “why this action,” audit trails)
• Designing and implementing dashboards, recommendations, scenarios, and decision UIs that marketers can use daily
• Creating and evolving a design system + component library that makes shipping faster without losing quality

Responsibilities

Design + product thinking

• Lead design across the lifecycle: define the problem, sketch, prototype, test, and ship.
• Drive lightweight user discovery with marketers (calls, prototypes, usability tests) to validate fast.
• Translate messy workflows into interfaces that are intuitive, legible, and trustworthy.
• Establish how we do product critique and quality: taste, bar, and decision‑making.

Frontend delivery

• Implement high‑quality UI in our product (or ramp quickly if you’re earlier in frontend).
• Build reusable components and patterns that raise overall product consistency.
• Partner tightly with backend/ML engineers to turn outputs into product experiences (not charts that confuse people).
• Sweat details: spacing, empty states, loading states, performance, edge cases.

Systems + scaling

• Build and maintain the BlueAlpha design system (tokens, components, interaction patterns).
• Improve design‑to‑code workflows so we can ship faster and cleaner as the team grows.

Qualifications

Required

• Strong product taste and a portfolio (or shipped work) showing you can simplify complexity.
• Experience designing and shipping real software products (B2B SaaS preferred).
• Comfort operating without a playbook: you can create structure, scope, and momentum.
• You can communicate clearly - especially when tradeoffs get real.

Frontend (one of these is true)

• You already build solid frontend (React/Next.js style stack), or
• You’re design‑heavy today but have shipped code before and are committed to ramping fast.

Big plus

• Experience with design systems and component libraries.
• Experience building tools for analytical/technical workflows (data, finance, ops, infra, etc.).
• You’ve worked in early‑stage startups and enjoy ownership + speed.

Compensation & Benefits

• Competitive salary + meaningful equity (real ownership).
• Health insurance + flexible PTO + remote‑friendly.
• High impact: your work will define what customers touch every day and how they experience AI in the product.
