Job summary

Cyclotron is seeking a senior, product-minded, AI-native engineer who can own a product area end-to-end, from objective to design, implementation and testing. This founding-Engineer style role expects independence in ambiguous environments and a focus on SaaS workflows and architecture.

You will drive discovery, define workflows, validate AI-generated code, and collaborate with product, engineering, and design to ship high-quality features.

Qualifications

• Senior-level engineering experience with the ability to design, build, validate, and improve production software.
• Strong product judgment with understanding of user workflows, pain points, outcomes, and success criteria.
• Ability to operate in ambiguity, ask clarifying questions, challenge assumptions respectfully, and progress without highly detailed tickets.
• Advanced fluency with AI-assisted development tools such as Cursor, Claude, ChatGPT, GitHub Copilot, or similar environments.

Responsibilities

• Own product areas from broad business goals through discovery, design, implementation, testing, and iteration.
• Translate ambiguous objectives into clear user workflows, product requirements, technical plans, and implementation steps.
• Question unclear requirements, identify missing pieces, surface risks and edge cases, and propose better product or technical approaches when appropriate.
• Design and build polished, intuitive SaaS workflows, including dashboards, tables, filters, forms, detail views, configuration experiences, empty states, loading states, and error states.
• Make thoughtful architecture decisions across data models, APIs, frontend architecture, backend architecture, permissions, integrations, state management, scalability, security, and maintainability.
• Use AI-assisted development tools to accelerate coding, refactoring, debugging, test creation, documentation, and architectural exploration.
• Critically review, validate, debug, and test AI-generated code to ensure production-quality implementation.
• Communicate clearly and proactively about requirements, architecture, tradeoffs, implementation status, open questions, risks, and blockers.
• Drive work forward independently while collaborating effectively with product, engineering, design, and business stakeholders.
