About this role
We are looking for a Product Engineer with 2-5 years of experience to join a small, high-impact engineering team building the first truly customs-centric global trade platform. You're a product-minded engineer who has been mentored at a credible engineering culture (ideally Series B+), has strong fundamentals, and is ready to own features end-to-end in an ambiguous, fast-moving environment. You'll work directly with the founders to shape a system that has never existed before: one that turns messy, fragmented trade data into actionable insights that save companies millions in tariff costs. With 80+ customers live, a Series A raise imminent, and US tariff spend exploding 10x in a decade, this is a unique opportunity to join at the ground floor of a category-defining company.
What will you be doing?
- Building full-stack features across the platform, working with client data to marry product to customer use cases in a scalable way
- Wrangling messy, fragmented trade data (documents, CSVs, API integrations) and transforming it into clean, structured, actionable information
- Designing and modeling databases (PostgreSQL) to handle the complexity of global trade: flexible, reliable, and transparent
- Shaping product direction alongside founders: understanding user problems, pushing back on specs, and owning the full lifecycle from ambiguous requirement to shipped product
- Building agentic AI workflows on top of the customs graph in a compliance-heavy domain where accuracy has real consequences
