Department: Engineering

Employment Type: Full Time

Location: Remote

Reporting To: VP of Engineering

Hi I'm Dom, VP of Engineering at Pinpoint.

We're a high-growth HR tech company building software that helps in-house recruitment teams attract, hire, and onboard the right talent. Today, we have a strong foundation in place, with a mature product, rapid growth, strong product-market fit, and happy customers.

As the business scales, we're moving away from large horizontal teams toward small, verticalized squads, each one owning a specific area of the platform end-to-end alongside a product manager and designer. We're hiring Senior Product Engineers who are genuinely excited by that model.

This isn't a role for engineers who build what they're told. You'll be embedded in the problem from the start: understanding real customer workflows, debating trade-offs, shaping solutions, building them, and standing behind them in production. There's no separate discovery phase, no handoff, and no "throw it over the wall" model. Squads own performance, reliability, and quality for everything they build.

We want engineers who build deep context over time and use that understanding to make better product decisions every day, not bespoke client solutions. If you care about owning a problem space, not just shipping tickets, this role was built for you.

• This is a remote role based in the UK or Poland, with occasional in-person team meetups.
• Our product is a configurable, platform-style ATS serving multiple personas: recruiters, hiring managers, and operations teams across a wide range of complex workflows
• Our stack is pragmatic and maintainable:
  Ruby on Rails (6.x), React with Type Script, Postgre
  
  SQL, Sidekiq, and CI/CD via Circle
  
  CI (moving to Git Hub Actions).
• Pinpoint is still very much in startup mode. Priorities shift, not everything is perfectly defined, and we expect people to operate well in that environment.
• Our values actually matter here. We hire people who reflect them in how they work, collaborate, and make decisions.

• Build full-stack features using Ruby on Rails and React (Type Script) within a small, focused squad.
• Own your product area end-to-end: from understanding real customer workflows and edge cases through to delivery, performance, and ongoing quality.
• Contribute to architectural discussions and technical trade-offs, not just implementation.
• Help translate product needs and constraints into clean, maintainable solutions.
• Review code, mentor others, and raise the technical bar within your squad.
• Engage continuously with customer context, building the kind of in-depth product understanding that improves your technical decisions over time.

• 5+ years of professional software engineering experience building production web applications.
• 3+ years of production experience with Ruby on Rails.
• 3+ years building React applications in a production environment.
• Comfortable working with Type Script (our frontend codebase uses it throughout).
• Background in startup or scale-up B2B SaaS environments.
• Comfortable operating in ambiguity and taking end-to-end ownership.
• Experience working on multi-persona, workflow-heavy SaaS products.
• Strong written communication - clear, direct, and able to explain technical decisions to non-engineers.
• Technically curious with a genuine interest in the problem space, not just the code.
• Experience writing automated tests (RSpec, Jest, or similar).

How are squads structured? Small, cross-functional teams: one PM, one designer, and two to five engineers. Each squad owns a specific area of the platform end-to-end - backlog, quality, performance, and all.

What areas of the product do squads own? We have verticals across Workflow, Candidate Experience, Onboarding, Marketplace, Platform & Reporting, and Integrations, alongside an AI squad and a Delta Squad for fast-moving, complex client work. Engineers typically join a squad and build deep context in that area over time.

Do engineers do support rotations?
