About the role
Role Overview
Staff Software Engineer, Product (Remote in Belo Horizonte)
You will serve as the engineering anchor for an initiative within a small, focused product engineering team (PM + designer + supporting engineering manager). The team ships end-to-end with strong product ownership and uses AI coding agents to increase delivery speed while maintaining a high quality bar.
Responsibilities
- Own the full lifecycle for your initiative: problem framing, technical approach, delivery, production rollout, and post-launch metric review.
- Make most technical decisions independently, with architect review on significant architectural changes.
- Direct AI coding agents to implement much of the code; also write careful hand-crafted code for sensitive areas.
- Define and drive implementation quality, including:
- Prompts, guardrails, and evals
- Tests (including edge cases)
- Review loops and quality standards
- Observability, rollback strategies, and safe production deployment
- Partner closely with PM and design on product tradeoffs and UX/prototyping.
- Present initiative results 2–4 weeks post-launch and ensure the “did it work” answer is measured and acted on.
Requirements
- Staff-level engineering judgment and autonomy: trusted to ship hard, high-impact work and stand behind outcomes.
- Ability to operate at end-to-end product execution quality (correctness, security, performance, observability, and customer/pro execution quality).
- Experience integrating systems and owning architecture, data model decisions, and rollout/rollback planning.
- Capability to raise AI-agent coding quality to a senior-engineer standard using evals, tests, and guardrails.
Nice-to-Haves
- Experience building workflows for small teams to ship far more than their size would suggest.
- Strong product sense and technical partnership with PM and design.
