Job description
About the role
We are looking for a generalist senior full-stack product engineer to join our early team in New York City. You’ll work closely with product, design and the rest of engineering to ship features end to end across the Starbridge platform, from the data model and APIs through to the UI. You’ll create the foundations that let us iterate quickly on customer feedback.
You might be a fit if you:
Have 5+ years of software engineering experience building and shipping production web applications across frontend and backend.
Have experience working in a startup or a smaller company with real engineering impact.
Have strong experience with React, TypeScript and modern frontend tooling.
Have strong experience building backend services and RESTful APIs in a typed language (TypeScript, Java, Go or similar).
Are comfortable with relational data modeling and SQL, and understand how databases and search systems behave under load.
Set the highest possible UX and UI bar for the work you do.
Are a team player who is excited to do what it takes to make the team successful. You're proactive both in how you work and how you communicate.
Are comfortable in a work environment that blends sync and async communication and work.
Are excited to build an in-person culture with us.
Preferably, you also have experience with at least some of the following:
Experience as a technical lead making architectural design decisions.
Github CI/CD.
Cloud infrastructure, ideally GCP.
Building product features on top of LLMs.
Interview Process
We move fast — really fast. Getting back to someone today beats tomorrow, and our interview process reflects that mindset. Please keep us posted on your timeline so we can move quickly and speed things up where needed.
After submitting your application, the team reviews your CV and statement of exceptional work. If your application passes this stage, you will be invited to a 30-minute interview during which a member of our team will make sure you're a good fit for the role. You will have the opportunity ask questions and learn more about the role as well.
We'll then send you a programming challenge that consists of two parts: LeetCode and React. Beyond that step, you will enter the main process, which consists of three interviews:
Experience, theory, and system design.
Live coding.
Product thinking and past work.
Our goal is to finish the process within one week. All interviews will be conducted via Google Meet.

Prepare your application
Use the description above to assess your fit for Starbridge. This checklist is guidance from Resumize, rather than additional requirements from the employer. Imported listings can be shortened or change after collection, so confirm the complete description and current availability before sending an application.
Match requirements to evidence
Identify the responsibilities and skills the employer explicitly names. For each important requirement, choose one example from your work, education, training, or projects. Explain what you did, how you did it, and what changed as a result. Include a measurable outcome when you can support it. If you lack a requirement, describe related experience accurately instead of adding an unfamiliar skill to your resume.
Put the most relevant examples near the top of your resume. Keep job titles, dates, qualifications, and contact details consistent across your application materials. Use the employer’s terminology when it describes your experience accurately; a copied list of keywords does not explain your contribution. A short, specific bullet is easier to review than a paragraph that mixes several unrelated duties.
Check the working arrangement
Confirm the location, schedule, employment type, and any eligibility requirements on the employer’s site. A remote label does not establish worldwide eligibility or flexible hours. If compensation, benefits, equipment, travel, or contract duration are missing from this listing, write down your questions for the recruiter. Do not assume details from another opening at the same company apply to this role.
Review before submitting
Follow the employer’s requested file format and application instructions. Open your exported resume and check that its text is selectable, its sections read in order, and its links work. Proofread names, dates, and contact information. Share confidential work samples only when you have permission, and use an anonymized example when necessary.
Submit through a trusted employer or recruiting destination. If the original listing has disappeared, search the employer’s careers page for the title rather than assuming the vacancy remains open. Save the application date, job reference, and the version of your resume you sent. Those details help you prepare for a later conversation and avoid submitting conflicting information through several job boards.
Review your resume for writing and readability feedback, or browse other openings if this opportunity is unavailable.
