Product Engineer

The team

You’ll join a cross-functional team of Software Engineers, Product Managers and Designers, all collaborating together with the wider business to achieve impactful product outcomes.

Everyone is involved from day one in shaping opportunities that provide outsized value to both clients and suppliers on Risk Ledger, always keeping the users at the forefront of our minds.

We care deeply about building the right thing, in order to fundamentally shift mindsets in the cybersecurity industry. We ship quickly & continuously in order to learn and iterate - whilst always pushing for high standards and keeping security top of mind.

The core of our stack is Go, PostgreSQL and Vue.js with Typescript. Our product primarily sits on top of AWS, with ECS for container orchestration and all managed via Terraform.

This role

Our Product Engineers play a crucial role in our user and product experience. You will be focused on solving end-to-end product challenges in the best manner for our customers. Whether you may have a natural inclination towards the backend or frontend, we expect you to be willing to delve into any aspect of our tech stack as necessary, to have an impact on our customers and the success of the business. We are always happy to support and help you grow your skills across the stack!

You’ll be collaborating on a daily basis with designers, product managers, other engineers and the wider business to create a great product experience and continuously ship value to our users.

As we are still a small but focused team, you will have the opportunity to impact our engineering strategy, codebase and developer experience as you progress in your career with us.

In the role you will:

• Collaborate to deliver an exceptional product. From understanding initial needs to crafting usable solutions, you'll work directly with product managers and designers to bring ideas to life. And by that, we don’t just mean implement requirements. We like our engineers to learn as much as possible about our customers so that over time they can suggest new features, challenge assumptions and really contribute to making our customers’ lives better.
• Develop high quality systems and code. Working across our stack, you’ll design and develop the systems that underpin the Risk Ledger product and advance us towards our vision.
• Move fast, with an eye for quality. You enjoy moving fast while maintaining a high quality of code through testing, seeking simplicity, striving for consistency and implementing best practices.
• Enjoy being a generalist. We are building an amazing and talented team from a diverse set of backgrounds and skillsets. Our engineers are empowered to work in all areas of our platform, and across all areas of the business, directly contributing to the wider success of the company.
• Have an impact. We're a growing startup - so you’ll have the opportunity to get involved in areas outside of your day to day role. It’s exciting!

You’ll have:

• A desire to deeply understand our customers and the problems they face, in order to improve their day-to-day experience.
• Hands-on experience across any tech stack, such as Go, Python, Ruby or Java on the backend, and Vue.js or React JS on the frontend. You don’t need to have necessarily worked across the stack, but you must have the willingness to learn and up-skill yourself.
• An ability to thrive in ambiguity, tackling problems that might not be well defined and without obvious solutions.
• A keen sense of curiosity, with a natural drive to learn and grow.
• A passion to work collaboratively with others. We like to work as a team, not a collection of individuals and we expect you to have the same mindset.
