Staff Software Engineer, Product

This is a remote role for candidates located in Porto Alegre, Brazil, focused on engineering initiatives involving AI agents, with a high degree of autonomy and impact in a marketplace environment.

Location: Porto Alegre, Brazil

Salary: USD $80,000–$100,000 annual base

Responsibilities

• The technical approach — architecture, data model, integration choices, rollout plan, observability, and rollback strategy for your initiative.
• Implementation quality — the prompts, guardrails, evals, tests, and review loop that let agents ship safe, correct, production-ready code.
• Cross-functional partnership — daily working contact with your PM (scope, tradeoffs) and designer (UX decisions, in-tool prototyping), regular collaboration with engineering peers, and weekly check-ins with your EM.
• The initiative outcome — the metric the initiative was set up to move. With your PM, you present results 2–4 weeks post-launch and share the "did it work" answer.
• A high bar for what ships — production correctness, security, performance, observability, and the experience for customers and pros.

Requirements

• AI-native. Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, or equivalent are how you ship today — daily, on production work. You have real opinions about prompts, evals, agent loops, and review workflows, and you know when to let the agent run versus write it yourself.
• Operating at a lead level. Whatever your current title, you've been the person making the call, shipping the hard thing, and standing behind whether it worked.
• Outcome-driven. You measure your week in "did the metric move" and "did the experience get better." You read the post-launch dashboard and own the answer.
• A strong horizontal partner. You hold your own with a strong PM and designer, and you collaborate well with engineering peers in a shared codebase. You bring engineering judgment to product calls and product judgment to engineering calls.
• Decisive and documented. You make architecture, data-model, and rollout calls, write them down, get fast input, and move.
• A force multiplier. Your impact compounds beyond your own initiative because you leave reusable artifacts behind — agent workflows, evals, runbooks, post-launch reviews.
• Customer- and pro-minded. This is a real marketplace with real people on both sides, and you care about the outcomes for both.

Benefits

• Competitive salary of USD $80,000–$100,000 annual base
• Work from anywhere
• High ownership and autonomy
• Fast-moving team that loves to build, learn, and grow
