Job description

About Mecka AI

Mecka AI is building the data infrastructure layer for robotics and embodied AI.

We partner with leading AI labs and robotics companies to deliver high-quality, real-world datasets used to train, evaluate, and deploy robotic systems — where model performance is dictated by data quality.

The Role

We are hiring a Senior Product Engineer to take products 0 1 scale.

This is a true senior, high-agency role for someone who is full-stack, design-oriented, and data-driven — with strong startup/founder-type instincts. You will work directly with internal users, define what to build, ship quickly, and own quality in production.

What You’ll Work On

0 1 Product Building

• Turn ambiguous problems into shipped product: concept prototype production.
• Own scope, trade-offs, and delivery — not just implementation.

Full-Stack Execution

• Build end-to-end workflows across frontend + backend.
• Create product primitives that are durable, simple, and fast to iterate on.

Design + Product Craft

• Sweat UX details: interaction quality, edge cases, and reliability.
• Partner closely with design — and bring strong product taste yourself.

Data-Driven Iteration

• Define success metrics and instrumentation.
• Use data to drive prioritization, quality, and performance decisions.

Who You Are

Required Background

• 7+ years of software engineering experience (or equivalent impact), with meaningful full-stack ownership.
• Proven track record shipping products 0 1 and scaling them in production.
• Strong product chops: you can reason about UX, workflows, and trade-offs.
• High agency: you move without waiting for perfect specs.

Strong Signals

• Early-stage startup or founder experience with end-to-end product ownership.
• You can write clean systems and also care deeply about UX.
• You ship, measure, and iterate relentlessly.

Why This Role

• Build the product layer that turns complex operations and petabyte-scale data into simple, reliable workflows.
• High ownership, fast iteration, and direct impact across the company.
