Our client, operating in the biotech industry, is looking for a Lead Product Engineer to drive their software roadmap forward.
Own customer-facing products end-to-end. Ship quickly, learn even faster. Build both back end and UI. Connect the right data to the right UX so customers see value in minutes, not months.
We’re looking for a hands-on Lead Product Engineer to be the technical backbone of our customer-facing experiences. You’ll report directly to the CEO and, while you’ll have support around you, this is primarily an IC role with high visibility and impact.
Responsibilities:
Build & ship: Deliver user-facing features across the full stack (front end + back end + data). Weekly releases are the norm.
Data integration: Connect and transform large internal datasets to power features and insights. Ensure seamless data flow from source to product.
Automate delivery: Create workflows that move data from the lab to customer dashboards with minimal manual steps.
Focus on usability: Simplify flows, polish UX details, and iterate quickly with customer feedback.
Own quality pragmatically: Tests where they matter, feature flags, observability. No heavy ceremony.
Lightweight leadership: Unblock with code reviews, accelerate with mentorship, give direct feedback—no nitpicking.
Shape the product: You’re responsible for crafting the digital face of the company—delivering experiences that feel seamless and valuable.
Requirements

Fluency in one modern front end (React/Next.js or similar) and one back end (Python preferred, Node or similar OK), with solid SQL skills.

Have experience with cloud (AWS/GCP), CI/CD, and security best practices.
Previous experience in ML model monitoring and quality assurance tools.
Previous experience in the Pharma or Biotech industry.

Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field.
