Senior Product Engineer - Americas

Job Overview

Hi I’m Abhik , Ashby 's Co-Founder and VP of Engineering. We’re looking for a versatile, persistent product engineer who’s not afraid to set up reusable building blocks across the stack and advocate for the time and space to do so.

At Ashby, all our engineers ship features end-to-end at a high pace. Example is the best leadership. We’ll give you the room to do your best work, and you'll be our guide! If that speaks to you, read on.

Job Description

What Ashby gives you in return is the best of both early and growth-stage environments. The agency and no-nonsense of a seed startup: you write product specs, make product and design decisions, and build in an almost-no-meeting culture.

While also the product-market fit and scale of a growth-stage startup: 100,000+ weekly active users who depend on your software and eagerly await your next feature. We have notable customers like Notion, Linear, Shopify, and Snowflake.

Our growth and retention metrics are best-in-class among our peers: we have tens of millions in ARR, growing >100% year over year, very low churn, and many years of runway. We’ll share more details once we meet.

You’ve probably seen this role posted before, and it’s because we’re always expanding the team (we’re on track to double Engineering this year).

We read every application and aim to respond to yours within 3-4 days (often sooner).

About the Role and How We Work Our engineering culture strives to recreate the environments where we did our best work as ICs – where we had the ownership and agency to impact our users with creative and innovative software.

Key Responsibilities

• We’re looking for a versatile, persistent product engineer who’s not afraid to set up reusable building blocks across the stack and advocate for the time and space to do so.
• Example is the best leadership.
• The agency and no-nonsense of a seed startup: you write product specs, make product and design decisions, and build in an almost-no-meeting culture.

• I started my career building software for artists in the Visual Effects industry.
• It was a formative experience for me as a software engineer because success relied on my ability to be a product manager and designer.
