## Description (the employer's text)

### About the role

Pocket is building a category-defining platform for ambient intelligence. We need an engineer who can work across backend + frontend to ship the highest-leverage product and growth improvements - whatever moves the needle.

### What you'll own

End-to-end projects: instrumentation → backend services → web/app UI → rollout & iteration.

Build and iterate on user-facing product features (activation, retention, paid conversion, core UX).

Design, implement, and scale backend systems: APIs, data models, pipelines, jobs, reliability.

Improve frontend surfaces where it matters (web product, internal tools, landing pages, onboarding flows).

Drive experiments: set hypotheses, ship fast, measure results, and harden what works.

Work closely with design, product, marketing, and support - and help unblock them with code.

### What success looks like

Shipped features/experiments that measurably improve activation/retention/revenue.

Reliable systems with clear observability (logs/metrics/traces) and pragmatic correctness.

Clean, simple architecture that stays fast to iterate on as the product evolves.

High ownership: you proactively find the most important problems and solve them.

### What we're looking for

Have strong backend fundamentals (APIs, DBs, async jobs, caching, performance, reliability).

Can comfortably ship frontend changes (React/TypeScript or similar), even if it’s not your “main thing.”

Care deeply about product outcomes and can translate ambiguity into shipped work.

Prefer shipping and learning over long debates; you can move quickly without breaking things.

6–10+ years of experience shipping production software (startup pace preferred).

### What we care about most

Performance and reliability by default: profiling, latency budgets, graceful degradation, and pragmatic correctness.

### Nice-to-haves

Experience running experiments / analytics instrumentation (events, funnels, cohorts).

Experience building internal tools that make teams faster.

Startup / zero-to-one experience.

### Our stack (today)

Mobile: Flutter

Frontend: React (TypeScript)

Backend: Go + Node

Data: Postgres + Redis

### What we offer

Work directly with us and learn fast

Direct impact on how the company operates day to day

High-trust, high-responsibility environment

Competitive compensation
