Product Engineer

About Pointer

At Pointer, we're building AI-native process automation to replace tedious human labor. We help companies map their processes, identify what's worth automating, and deploy AI agents that actually execute the work – across documents, browsers, and legacy systems.

We recently raised our seed round from incredible investors (to be announced) and are looking for gritty, fast-learning engineers to join us.

About the role

You’ll own how Pointer feels – to our customers and to the teams they serve. You'll build the surfaces people touch every day: the interfaces where customers create, orchestrate, and monitor the work Pointer does for them. Your job is to make Pointer feel intuitive, polished, and magical.

This is a role for an engineer with taste. Someone who cares about UI polish, micro-interactions, and the performance of every click. You’ll be sitting at the intersection of design and engineering, constantly asking: how do we make this so good that no one ever thinks about it?

What you’ll work on

• Building interfaces that let non-technical ops teams design and edit complex automations

• Performance optimization at every layer: the product needs to feel instant even when orchestrating processes across external systems

• State management across long-running, multi-step workflows that span external systems, APIs, and human escalation points

• Designing abstractions that let customers configure deeply when they want to, but stay out of the way when they don't

• Shipping end-to-end experiences, from spec to production to polish

You’ll be a good fit if

• You’re full-stack and fast: React, TypeScript, Node/Express, PostgreSQL, Redis, RabbitMQ

• You have strong design taste (experience with Figma, design systems, UX principles)

• You thrive on ownership: you want to spec, build, ship, and demo what you create

• You’re excited to work in-person in SF with a tight, ambitious team

• You've built systems that need to be fast and reliable under real-world messiness

What we offer

• Competitive pay + equity (we’ll beat all of your offers)

• Engaging, high-impact work

• Relocation support to San Francisco

• Visa sponsorship (if applicable)

• All meals covered (coffee, lunch, dinner, snacks)

• M4 Pro/Max MacBook Pro, 2+ monitors, & more

• Unlimited PTO and full health coverage

• 401(k) for your future

• Regular team offsites
