Product-Minded Software Engineer

Location: Onsite – Seattle, WA (Chicago, IL optional)
Employment Type: Full-Time
Company: Confidential / Our Client
Industry: Supply Chain & Manufacturing Software
Stage: Series A | ~$6M Funded | Early Team (~5 employees)

About the Role

Our client is seeking a high-caliber, product-minded software engineer to join a small, elite founding team. This role is for an engineer who thrives in early-stage environments, takes extreme ownership, and enjoys building real systems that customers depend on.

This is a hands-on individual contributor role. You will work closely with founders, product, and customers to design, build, and scale core platform functionality. If you are looking for a management role, heavy process, or large-team structure, this role will not be a fit.

What You’ll Do

• Design, build, and ship core product features end-to-end
• Own critical systems across the stack with accountability for quality and performance
• Build and maintain API integrations, including integrations with ERP and operations systems
• Partner cross-functionally with product, operations, and customers to translate real-world problems into scalable solutions
• Improve platform reliability, performance, and developer experience as the system scales
• Identify gaps, inefficiencies, or risks and proactively drive solutions without being asked
• Contribute to technical direction, architecture decisions, and engineering standards

Experience

• 3+ years of professional experience as a software engineer
• Prior experience at a high-bar, fast-growing startup or similarly rigorous technical environment
• Background at a Tier-1 VC-backed company strongly preferred
• Demonstrated track record of fast growth, increased ownership, or promotions
• Experience working on production systems used by real customers

Education

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science from a Top-30 university or equivalent technical rigor

Technical Skills

• Strong software engineering fundamentals and system design skills
• Experience across the modern web stack, ideally including:
  • TypeScript (strongly preferred)
  • React and/or Next.js
  • Python or Go
• Experience designing and integrating RESTful APIs and third-party systems
• Prior exposure to ERP, supply chain, manufacturing, or operations platforms is a strong plus

Product & Collaboration Skills

• Highly product-driven mindset — understands customer workflows and business impact
• Comfortable working directly with customers and stakeholders
• Strong written and verbal communication skills
• Ability to operate autonomously while collaborating closely with a small team
• Bias toward action, ownership, and execution

Eligibility & Location Requirements

• U.S. Citizen or Green Card holder required
• Willing and excited to work onsite in Seattle, WA (Chicago, IL optional depending on role fit)

Nice to Have

• Genuine interest in supply chains, manufacturing, or hardware-adjacent industries
• Experience working on early-stage products from zero to scale
• Evidence of shipping complex systems rather than isolated features

What We’re Not Looking For

• Candidates with frequent job changes (multiple roles under one year)
• Recently transitioned managers who are not fully committed to being hands-on ICs
• Engineers with weak technical fundamentals or reliance on legacy / low-bar stacks
• Candidates who require constant direction instead of owning problems end-to-end

Why Join Our Client

• Work directly with founders and influence core product decisions
• Own meaningful systems from day one
• High impact, low bureaucracy, real customer problems
• Opportunity to grow rapidly with the company as it scales
