Job summary

Eino is building a connectivity intelligence platform to monitor, diagnose, and automate enterprise network operations across Wi‑Fi, WAN, DAS, and IoT. We seek a hands‑on Principal Product Engineer who can translate customer pain into scalable product capabilities, prototype rapidly, and ship features through close collaboration with our engineering team.

You will work with AI-assisted development environments, own code contributions, and help shape the product architecture and roadmaps while

Qualifications

• Deep experience with enterprise networking, network operations, network observability, network automation, or network reliability.
• Strong understanding of networking fundamentals, including TCP/IP, routing, switching, DNS, DHCP, NAT, firewalls, VPNs, and network‑performance analysis.
• Experience with enterprise Wi‑Fi and the operational challenges of distributed physical sites.
• The ability to write, review, debug, test, and maintain software using languages such as Python, Go, TypeScript, or JavaScript.
• Experience working with APIs, telemetry pipelines, time‑series data, event‑driven systems, or observability platforms.
• A track record of building tools, integrations, automations, dashboards, diagnostic workflows, or production software used by real customers or operators.
• Experience speaking directly with customers and converting loosely defined complaints into clear technical and product problems.
• Strong product judgment and the ability to distinguish a broadly valuable capability from a customer‑specific request.
• Comfort working in an early‑stage startup where priorities evolve and individual contributors have significant ownership.
• The ability to communicate technical findings clearly to engineers, network operators, executives, and customers.
• Intellectual honesty and the discipline to separate evidence, assumptions, correlations, and confirmed root causes.
• High standards for software quality, including tests, observability, documentation, security, and maintainability.

Responsibilities

• Work directly with enterprise customers, network operators, and internal teams to understand connectivity and operational pain points.
• Investigate complex problems across Wi‑Fi, WAN, internet, private cellular, DAS, IoT, and application connectivity.
• Translate customer problems into scalable product capabilities rather than one‑off fixes.
• Design and build features for network monitoring, management, autonomous root‑cause analysis, and future network‑security products.
• Prototype rapidly and contribute directly to the product through code, pull requests, tests, APIs, queries, data models, and user‑interface improvements.
• Use AI‑assisted development tools to accelerate delivery while maintaining strong engineering judgment and code quality.
• Work with network telemetry such as flow data, device metrics, events, logs, configuration data, packet‑derived insights, and application‑performance signals.
• Improve how the product explains network problems to operators, IT leaders, and non‑technical stakeholders.
• Help define product architecture, technical priorities, and the longer‑term product roadmap.
• Establish repeatable approaches for turning field observations into shipped improvements.
• Collaborate closely with engineering while remaining independently capable of building and validating solutions.
• Help shape the culture and operating model of an early‑stage product organization.
