Position Overview
Bobyard is growing uncomfortably fast. Demand is exploding. Our infrastructure needs to 10x while we ship 10x more product. No time for ticket-jockeys.
You’ll have founder-level autonomy to design, execute, and iterate. We move at startup speed — no committees, no politics. You’ll become the world’s leading expert on the products you own. We want world-class engineers with product taste and the ability to go heads down and ship exceptional code.
Responsibilities
Own the full stack: React, Django, PostgreSQL. You build it, you ship it, you scale it.
Design and scale: Backend APIs, data models, and infra that won’t break when usage 100x’s overnight.
Frontend craft: Architecture, performance, UX. Our UI can’t feel like enterprise software. Make it feel like smooth.
Ship with conviction: Partner with product, CV, and design to launch cohesive features users can’t live without.
Run production: AWS, GCP, Heroku. Deploy it, monitor it, debug it, make it bulletproof.
Move fast: Prototype in days, iterate with real customers, kill what doesn’t work, double down on what does.
Desired Attributes
Founder-level drive: You thrive with zero structure. Ambiguity is your default state. You create clarity and ship.
Product engineer: You care why we’re building, not just how. You have taste. You argue for the user.
World-class fundamentals: Web architecture, system design, performance. You’ve scaled things before or you’ll figure it out fast.
Full-stack killer: Frontend to backend to infra. No “that’s not my job.” You own the outcome.
Learning machine: New framework on Monday, shipping it Friday. You’re resourceful and relentless on hard problems.
Startup work ethic: This isn’t a cushy big-tech role. We’re at war with legacy software in a $13T industry. You want that.
Organized under fire: 10 parallel workstreams, production fire, and a new feature launch. You prioritize and execute.
This is full-time & in-person in SF. Learning rate and dedication beat pedigree. If you can prove you’ll ship what our customers are screaming for — at the speed and quality the market demands — we want you.
