Description
Hi 👋 I'm Leo, Head of Roadmap 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. More than 1,000 organisations hire on Pinpoint. We have a mature product, strong product-market fit and customers who stay.
A growing share of our revenue now comes from what customers use rather than the seats they buy: reference checks, background checks, one-way video interviewing, and the billing that powers them. That's the Marketplace squad, and it needs another senior pair of hands to own it properly, which is why we're hiring a Senior Product Engineer.
That's where you come in.
Marketplace is a tight team of a product manager, two engineers and a designer, owning these features end to end. Much of what we offer runs on third-party services we white-label, so the craft here is integration: wiring those vendors in so they feel native, and owning the relationship yourself when something breaks on their side. It's one of the most commercially pointed and most independent parts of the product.
You'll be embedded in the problem from the start: understanding real customer workflows, debating trade-offs, shaping solutions, and standing behind them in production, with vendors and edge cases included. There's no separate discovery phase and no "throw it over the wall" model.
This isn't a role for someone to just ship what they're told. We want engineers who build in-depth context over time and use that understanding to make better product decisions every day. If you care about owning a problem space, not just shipping tickets, this role was built for you.
The fine print
This is a remote role. You can be based in the UK, Portugal, Spain or Poland, with occasional in-person team meetups.
You'll sit in a product engineering org of 30+ people, working in ten squads that each own a piece of the product end to end.
Our product is a configurable, platform-style ATS serving multiple personas: recruiters, hiring managers and operations teams, across a wide range of complex workflows.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Pinpoint is still in startup mode: fast moving, lean and sometimes ambiguous. You'll thrive here if you're comfortable building structure where none exists.
Our values actually matter here. We hire people who reflect them in how they work, collaborate and make decisions.
What you'll do
- Build full-stack features using Ruby on Rails and React (TypeScript) within a small, focused squad.
- Own your product area end to end: from real customer workflows and edge cases through to delivery, performance and ongoing quality.
- Integrate white-labelled third-party services seamlessly into the platform, and own the vendor relationship, including hands-on debugging when the issue is on their side.
- 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.
What you'll bring
- 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 TypeScript. Our frontend codebase uses it throughout.
- Background in startup or scale-up B2B SaaS environments.
- Fluent with AI-assisted development, and able to show how it's changed the way you work.
- Comfortable operating in ambiguity and taking end-to-end ownership.
- Experience on multi-persona, workflow-heavy SaaS products.
- Strong written communication: clear, direct, and able to explain technical decisions to non-engineers and external partners alike.
- Bonus: deep experience integrating third-party APIs and white-labelled services, usage-based or billing features, and refactoring or migrating systems.
You may not enjoy this role if
- You want a defined lane and a queue of tickets waiting for you.
- You'd rather hand a problem on once the code is merged than own it in production, vendors included.
- You'd rather sit out the AI shift. Most of our product code is now written with AI.
What you get
We want Pinpoint to be the best place you've ever worked, somewhere you feel valued, supported and excited to grow. Here's what you get:

What you're wondering
What's the stack?
Ruby on Rails, MySQL, Sidekiq, Redis, Elasticsearch, Graphiti, React, TypeScript, Minitest, Python and FastAPI, Cloud66, DigitalOcean, AWS, Datadog, GitHub Actions, and Claude Code.
How are squads structured?
Small, cross-functional teams: one PM, one designer, and two to five engineers, each owning a specific area of the platform end to end, including backlog, quality and performance.
What areas of the product do squads own?
Ten squads: Workflow, Onboarding, Marketplace, Platform & Reporting, Integrations, AI, Developer Support, Technical Success, Infrastructure and Impact. Engineers join a squad and build deep context there over time.
How is AI deployed within the team?
AI is central to how our engineers work. Most of the team lives in Claude Code, and the hard part of the job has shifted from writing code to understanding context, owning outcomes and knowing when the model is wrong. The engineers who thrive here are high-agency people who spot a problem and go and fix it, and who care whether what they shipped actually helped the user. We think our value driver is growth and product strength, not margin, so when AI makes each person more productive we use that to move faster, not to hire fewer people. Our R&D budget grew by more than 40% this year for exactly that reason.
