Senior Product Engineer — AI-Native (APAC)
RemoteIndia
Job Summary
Own features from ideation through production, including discovery, prototyping, architecture, implementation, testing, release, and iteration. Work directly with product, design, customers, and leadership to understand problems before choosing solutions, turning loosely defined ideas into clear product and technical plans. Build polished customer-facing experiences across frontend and backend, design reliable APIs, data models, services, and integrations, and leverage AI tools to accelerate research, prototyping, and debugging while critically evaluating generated code. Monitor features post-launch, learn from production behavior, and raise the engineering bar through standards, code reviews, and architectural guidance.

- Experience building across modern frontend and backend systems

- Comfort working with ambiguity, questioning assumptions, and proposing a better path
- Experience making architectural decisions that balance immediate delivery with long-term maintainability

- High ownership: you identify gaps, follow through, and remain accountable after deployment
- Practical experience using AI-assisted development tools as part of your daily engineering workflow
- Ability to verify AI-generated code for correctness, security, maintainability, and alignment with the existing system
Desired Qualifications
- You have been an early engineer, technical founder, or product-minded engineer in a fast-moving startup
