TITLE: Hands-On Head of Product & Engineering (startup)
LOCATION: Ideally in and near Fort Worth, Texas but open to remote for the right candidate who can travel as needed
PAY: Target salary for this role is $175,000 and varies +/- based on experience. Comes with lots of growth opportunity.
ENGAGEMENT TYPE: Direct Hire (FTE)
What You’ll Be Doing

• We’re looking for a hands-on Product Engineering leader to lead the evolution of an operational software into a scalable, customer-facing product.
• This is a high-impact role combining 50% engineering with 50% product, ideal for someone who thrives in fast-moving environments, knows how to get things done with limited structure, and is excited to help build something transformative from within.
• You’ll take ownership of existing codebase with the help of the existing developer and lead the next phase of development - from scaling adoption across internal teams and vendors to building the infrastructure that could support commercial rollout.
• You’ll work closely with our founder, existing dev partners, and eventually your own engineering team.
• This is a very exciting opportunity to leverage your expertise and make an immediate impact for a well respected company and an exciting new product to come to market.
  

Who We’re Looking For

• 5-10+ years of hands-on experience that ideally includes scaling an existing internal app into a customer-facing product
• Ability to manage stakeholders, perform requirements gathering, defining roadmap and being in the code as needed
• Experience in a startup or high growth company (ideally being #1 or #2) with ability to build up a small team with a mix of offshore and onshore members
• Hands-on experience with Python and ideally Flutter
• Familiarity with AWS cloud infrastructure and modern development practices
• Experience with API integrations (ERPs, Salesforce, QuickBooks, and similar small to medium sized business platforms)
• Very comfortable with ambiguity and iterating quickly
• Experience in product ownership, user adoption and roadmap development would be really helpful as well as exposure to B2B logistics, operations or vendor management software
• Experience operating in a private equity environment is not required but would help understand expectations
• Effective communication and proactive approach to stakeholder and executive collaboration
• Ability to work independently with minimal supervision
• Authorization to work in the US is a precondition of employment - we do not sponsor work visas.
• Please NO Third Party Applicants.
