dex - Staff Product Engineer
Requirements
• Leading teams or entire product lines - You can take responsibility for driving delivery across a team or across an entire product line • Seeing good at scale, and early stage - you've moved fast in scrappy, early-stage environments, and seen what good looks like at scale • Independent delivery - You can own and ship end-to-end product slices with minimal supervision; your track record shows features that shipped, stuck, and scaled • Product trade-off judgment - you balance speed, quality, and user impact under ambiguity; you push back when something is underspecified and make pragmatic calls when it needs to ship • Reliability and API discipline - you handle data integrity, error paths, idempotence, and API versioning as standard practice; production reliability is your default, not a later concern • Cross-functional pragmatism - you work effectively with product and design, can unblock yourself across the stack, and ship workable frontend when that's what's needed • Strong technical depth in: • Python backend (FastAPI or equivalent, async patterns, Postgres, Redis) • LLM integration — building products where AI is in the critical path, not bolted on • API design and data modelling • JavaScript/TypeScript — comfortable enough to ship frontend features and review frontend PRs • Experience with voice agents or real-time audio pipelines • Familiarity with evals, guardrails, or agent observability • Familiarity with GCP / cloud infrastructure • Experience in recruiting tech, marketplaces, or matching systems • A modern Python stack: FastAPI, Postgres, Redis, Docker, Pydantic AI, running on GCP. Frontend in React/TypeScript. We iterate fast and keep the codebase clean.
Responsibilities
• Own product delivery — take features from spec to production, backend-first but covering frontend and integration where needed • Build and maintain backend systems — product APIs, data pipelines, and core infrastructure on our Python/FastAPI/Postgres stack • Build with LLMs and agents — ship product features with significant LLM integration; contribute to the voice agent backend and information extraction systems • Work across the stack — ship workable React/TypeScript frontend for product features; not a frontend specialist, but comfortable and pragmatic • Collaborate with product and design — translate ambiguous requirements into concrete shipped work; be the engineer who unblocks, not the one who waits • Maintain quality at speed — handle data integrity, error paths, API evolution, and operational concerns as a default, not an afterthought
Benefits
• Above market salary — we're building a world class team and believe pay should match that ambition • Significant equity — we want this to be the last job you 'have' to take • Full private healthcare & dental — because life happens and we want to support you • Fertility benefits & enhanced parental support • Claude tokens — lots and lots of Claude tokens • Regular socials, offsites and an annual trip • MacBook Pro + team kit • "Whatever you need" approach to tools and support
