Product Engineer

$185k - $230k

David Joseph & Company

Job Description

Job Description

Product Engineer

San Francisco, CA · Hybrid (3 days/week on-site) · Full-time
Compensation: $185K–$230K + equity

About the Company

Our client is a seed-stage startup building AI-powered software for global trade and customs, helping importers navigate tariffs, uncover duty refunds, and cut costs across their operations. They have a live product with a growing base of customers and a Series A on the horizon. You would join a small, high-impact engineering team where every engineer shapes the product directly.

Founded 2024 · Small team · Industry: AI, Logistics, Fintech, B2B

The Role

A product-minded engineer who owns features end-to-end in an ambiguous, fast-moving environment, working directly with the founders to turn messy, fragmented trade data into clean, actionable insight.

What you'll be doing

  • Building full-stack features across the platform, connecting product to real customer use cases with client data.
  • Wrangling messy, fragmented trade data (documents, CSVs, API integrations) into clean, structured, usable information.
  • Designing and modeling databases in PostgreSQL to handle the complexity of global trade.
  • Shaping product direction with the founders: understanding user problems, pushing back on specs, and owning the full lifecycle from ambiguous requirement to shipped product.
  • Building agentic AI workflows in a compliance-heavy domain where accuracy has real consequences.

Tech stack: TypeScript (Node backend + React frontend), PostgreSQL

Requirements
  • 2 to 5 years of experience in full-stack product engineering.
  • Time at a Series B or later company with a strong engineering culture.
  • Strong full-stack TypeScript ability across a Node backend and a React frontend.
  • A track record shipping end-to-end features in a data-heavy or compliance-adjacent product (for example fintech, logistics, or B2B SaaS).
  • Solid PostgreSQL and data-modeling fundamentals.
  • Genuine intellectual curiosity, with a habit of going deep on technical or domain problems on your own.
  • Based in San Francisco or open to relocating, and able to be in-office 3 days a week.
  • Work authorization note: no new H-1B sponsorship at this time; H-1B transfers, OPT, TN, J1, and O1 can be considered.
Nice to Haves
  • Hands-on experience with data wrangling, tricky integrations, or document pipelines.
  • A degree in computer science or a related technical field.
  • A strong point of view on frontend UX and building genuinely usable interfaces.
Why Join
  • Join at near-founding-team scale, where your work shapes the product, roadmap, and culture directly.
  • Own features end-to-end, from ambiguous problem to shipped product, alongside the founders.
  • Work on hard, real-world data problems in a category that is expanding quickly.
  • Meaningful early-stage equity with room to grow as the company scales.
Details
  • Location: San Francisco, CA
  • Work policy: Hybrid, 3 days/week in-office
  • Compensation: $185K–$230K + equity
  • Visa sponsorship: No new H-1B; H-1B transfers, OPT, TN, J1, O1 considered
  • Employment type: Full-time
