Founding Product Engineer
Description For Founding Product Engineer
GrowthX Labs is revolutionizing the marketing landscape by creating AI-integrated growth systems that combine automation with expert guidance. Having achieved seven-figure annual revenue within just five months of launching, they're partnering with major players like Reddit, Ramp, and HeyGen.
As their first product engineer, you'll be instrumental in shaping their internal platform, working directly with the CTO on everything from SEO tools to AI-powered text editing. The tech stack centers on React (TypeScript with Tailwind/Shadcn) and Ruby on Rails, though Rails experience isn't mandatory.
The role demands a senior-level full-stack developer who combines technical expertise with strong product intuition and design sensibilities. You'll be laying the groundwork for a growing team, with expansion planned for Q1 next year. The position offers significant autonomy, perfect for those who thrive on independent project ownership.
A typical week involves diverse activities: 15% strategic planning with founders, 20% on design and workflow understanding, 55% hands-on coding split between frontend and backend development, and 10% project management. The company emphasizes AI integration, expecting team members to leverage tools like Cursor or Windsurf for enhanced productivity.
This remote position offers competitive compensation ($120K-$180K plus equity), unlimited vacation, and a culture prioritizing autonomous, asynchronous work. You'll need to maintain at least 4 hours of overlap with US Pacific Time. The role presents an opportunity to shape the future of AI-driven marketing technology while working with a rapidly growing, innovative team.
