At Productboard, we are developing a product command center where 5,000+ global companies make strategic product decisions every day.

We're growing fast and with that comes strong demand to build more and more product features. To help meet our customers' evolving needs, we want to have 20% of our engineering team working our technical platform. Would you like to be part of that?

Our engineering department is composed of multiple product tribes and a platform tribe. Each product tribe owns a different area of the product, while the platform tribe focuses on improving the efficiency of the whole engineering department.

The platform tribe is composed of six teams, each focusing on a different topic. However, we do keep a high level of cross collaboration between the teams.

  • Frontend Platform — owns a big piece of our technical architecture, develops the frontend framework and its interfaces with the backend (React, GraphQL, service workers, etc.).
  • Production Engineering (aka Backend Platform) — develops the backend framework that powers our microservices architecture and integrates it with all our tools (Backstage, k8s, Sentry, OpsGenie, etc.).
  • Developer Experience — improves the developer experience and productivity by tackling topics such as CI/CD, development environments, IDE plugins, and integration between development tools.
  • Quality Engineering — oversees frameworks, tooling, and infrastructure that product tribes use to automate all kinds of tests, and keeps an eye on the quality of the product.
  • Cloud Engineering — builds and maintains our infrastructure (AWS, Kubernetes, load balancers, etc.).
  • Nucleus — builds and maintains our internal design system.

If you join us, you'll have the freedom to choose the topic which is closest to your heart. We also encourage moving between teams if there's a topic you like better.

We're fully running on AWS and Kubernetes, with our frontend written in Typescript/React. We're in the progress of breaking down a Ruby on Rails monolith into microservices that communicate through Kafka message bus. New components are written in Kotlin, with Ruby remaining a first-class citizen in our stack. We are also transitioning to a federated single schema GraphQL implementation for the data-fetching layer.

Our Tech Stack

  • Frontend: TypeScript, React.js, React Native, Nx (you can read here about how we use it)
  • Backend: Kotlin/Spring, Ruby on Rails, Kafka
  • Storage: Postgres, Elastic, Redis
  • Code Quality: Jest, Cypress.io, ESlint, Prettier, Danger.js
  • Infrastructure: AWS, Kubernetes, Terraform, Datadog

About you

  • You are experienced at building web applications and designing architecture that scales
  • You have experience with various frontend frameworks
  • You have interest in platform and building tools and features for other engineers
  • You are passionate about learning and embrace change
  • You are not tied to a single tech stack and like to learn different technologies
  • You like to fix things when they break
  • You are passionate about knowledge sharing
  • Your code is clean and well tested
  • You are fluent in English — our team consists of 14+ nationalities!

Bonus points

  • Previous experience working with React/Typescript
  • Previous experience with different frontend frameworks
  • Previous experience building and maintaining Frontend frameworks
  • Previous experience with GraphQL

If you don't check all these boxes, don't worry! We encourage learning and knowledge-sharing and would love to have a chat with you regardless of your experience level.
