Partnering with
Silicon Valley Product Group (SVPG)
, we're revolutionising engineering and delivery with a product-led, problem-first mindset. You'll work hands-on in product discovery and provide deep technical expertise to product and design on how tech can be used to better solve customer pain points.
We're interested in hearing from people who:
Code with architectural intuition
-you've shipped scalable features and still find joy in clean, elegant commits, because great engineering means balancing scale with craftsmanship.
Own your domain
in .NET, Java, or TypeScript-you've debugged race conditions, optimized performance to cut infrastructure costs, and built abstractions that simplify complexity without hiding it.
Think in systems, ship in iterations
-you design for future scale while delivering real value today, knowing great engineering balances vision with execution.
Lead through code
-you're the engineer others turn to for tough decisions, mentoring teammates while staying hands-on and trusted to solve the hardest production challenges.
Hunger for the unknown
-you contribute to open source because you care about improving what you use, and you approach debugging with the same curiosity that drives chaos engineering and SRE innovation.
Balance obsession with perspective
-you architect with care, debug with precision, and know when to step back, mentor others, and focus on engineering that drives real-world impact
