Experience at high-growth startup backed by tier 1 VCs (ideally series A-C)

Can own product-level development: meet with customers and translate needs into intuitive product enhancements.

Expertise in TypeScript, React, and Next.js.

Proven ability to create polished, intuitive user interfaces with attention to detail.

Excited to work at an early stage company with ownership and rapid iteration.

Strong communication skills: can work with customer and internal sales, design, engineering teams.

Knowledge of AI coding tools (Cursor).

Only big tech or most recent experience from big tech.

Here are key insights for evaluating Founding Product Engineer applicants:

*   **Startup Experience is Paramount:** Prioritize candidates from high-growth startups, ideally Series A-C, backed by Tier 1 VCs. Explicitly avoid candidates whose most recent or sole experience is in big tech.
*   **Technical Proficiency:**
    *   **TypeScript is a MUST-HAVE.** React and Next.js are also highly desired.
    *   While other tech stack requirements can be flexible if startup experience is strong, deep expertise in TypeScript is non-negotiable.
    *   Look for experience building production-quality frontend applications, with at least 2 years of experience.
    *   Familiarity with AI coding tools (e.g., Cursor) is a plus.
*   **Product Ownership & Customer Interaction:** Candidates must demonstrate the ability to own product-level development, including meeting with customers and translating their needs into product enhancements. Strong communication skills are essential for working with customers, sales, design, and engineering teams.
*   **Early-Stage Mindset:** Seek individuals excited about working at an early-stage company, embracing ownership, and thriving in a rapid iteration environment.
*   **Red Flags:** Avoid candidates with a history of frequent job changes, lack of recent coding experience (within the past year), or those who haven't demonstrated a strong product-centric approach. Candidates who are purely technical or purely customer-focused, but not both, are also a mismatch.
