Senior Product Engineer, Amplitude

• If you have a mix of frontend and backend development, strong systems and product thinking, owned projects end to end in the past, and want to use your technical skills to drive business growth, this role could be a great fit
• Have at least 4 years of experience working in a frontend or fullstack engineering role
• Have a thorough understanding and experience with JavaScript application frameworks (React/Redux, Angular, Backbone, etc.)
• Have experience leading the design and implementation of long-term initiatives/systems in close collaboration with cross-functional teams and other stakeholders
• Can create motivating technical visions that both empower engineering teams and setup the business for success in the long-term
• Have a bias for action; you’d rather implement, learn from results, and iterate quickly than spend a lot of time tweaking and perfecting things before launching to end users
• Growth mindset: are motivated by moving metrics and driving concrete business outcomes while solving customer pain points
• Can rapidly prototype solutions as well as take a concept to production
