Job Description

About the Role

The Product Engineer role at SuperPlane is a unique opportunity for well-rounded builders to own projects from end to end, working on both the backend and frontend to deliver features that impact engineers globally. As a key member of a small, ambitious team, you will be responsible for making strong technical and product calls, collaborating with colleagues across different time zones, and leveraging AI as a force multiplier to drive efficiency and innovation. The role is fully remote, with the company currently operating across GMT+2 to GMT-3 time zones, offering a flexible and autonomous work environment that values speed, reliability, and trade-offs.
