## About the role

As a Staff Software Engineer, Product, you will be instrumental in architecting, building, and scaling both backend systems and user-facing experiences that power our LLM-driven coaching platform. You will ship features end-to-end - from designing resilient APIs and integrating models to delivering polished interfaces in the browser - while collaborating closely with cross-functional partners in product, design, and infrastructure.

## What they're looking for

- Strong full stack experience: you have shipped production-grade systems involving both backend and frontend components, and you’re comfortable owning APIs and user experiences end-to-end
- Technical breadth/ Engineering skills: deep proficiency with Python (Django preferred) or similar languages for backend, strong JavaScript skills and familiarity with modern frameworks (e.g., React, Vue)
- Frontend craftsmanship/ UX obsessed: experience building responsive, high-performance UI with attention to usability and scale
- Enterprise-grade thinking: you build for scale, performance, security, and maintainability in large, distributed environments
- Builder at Heart: you’ve architected and shipped production-grade, user-facing systems. You balance polish with speed, knowing when to prioritize craftsmanship and when to push scrappy experiments to learn fast
- Versatility and pragmatism: you balance sound architectural decisions with a willingness to prototype and iterate quickly when needed
