Pocket is building a category-defining platform for ambient intelligence. We need an engineer who can work across backend + frontend to ship the highest-leverage product and growth improvements - whatever moves the needle. ### **What you'll own** * End-to-end projects: instrumentation → backend services → web/app UI → rollout & iteration. * Build and iterate on user-facing product features (activation, retention, paid conversion, core UX). * Design, implement, and scale backend systems: APIs, data models, pipelines, jobs, reliability. * Improve frontend surfaces where it matters (web product, internal tools, landing pages, onboarding flows). * Drive experiments: set hypotheses, ship fast, measure results, and harden what works. * Work closely with design, product, marketing, and support - and help unblock them with code. **What success looks like** * Shipped features/experiments that measurably improve activation/retention/revenue. * Reliable systems with clear observability (logs/metrics/traces) and pragmatic correctness. * Clean, simple architecture that stays fast to iterate on as the product evolves. * High ownership: you proactively find the most important problems and solve them. ### **What we're looking for** * Have strong backend fundamentals (APIs, DBs, async jobs, caching, performance, reliability). * Can comfortably ship frontend changes (React/TypeScript or similar), even if it’s not your “main thing.” * Care deeply about product outcomes and can translate ambiguity into shipped work. * Prefer shipping and learning over long debates; you can move quickly without breaking things. * 6–10+ years of experience shipping production software (startup pace preferred). **What we care about most** * Performance and reliability by default: profiling, latency budgets, graceful degradation, and pragmatic correctness. **Nice-to-haves** * Experience running experiments / analytics instrumentation (events, funnels, cohorts). * Experience building internal tools that make teams faster. * Startup / zero-to-one experience. **Our stack (today)** * Mobile: Flutter * Frontend: React (TypeScript) * Backend: Go + Node * Data: Postgres + Redis ### **What we offer** * Work directly with us and learn fast * Direct impact on how the company operates day to day * High-trust, high-responsibility environment * Competitive compensation
