The Product Engineer owns product modules end to end, translating customer needs into shipped products and coordinating the experts involved in building them.

Responsibilities

• Own modules end-to-end– from customer requirements to shipped, paid-for product. The outcome is yours
• Orchestrate across disciplines– get hardware, ML, agronomy, and AI engineers aligned and moving, and earn their trust by genuinely understanding their work
• Talk to customers directly– understand what they need, decide what to build, and measure whether it worked
• Build when it's the fastest path– prototype, integrate ML into the product, ship full-stack features, unblock yourself in unfamiliar territory
• Make things happen– close the loop after shipping, don't just hand off a spec

Skills

• You've founded or co-founded a company, or owned a product like a founder would–built it, shipped it, and lived with the consequences
• 3+ years building/managing production software
• Strongly familiar with at least one backend and one frontend technology
• You're good at talking to users and turning fuzzy needs into something concrete
• You can go deep across unfamiliar disciplines– hardware, ML, a gnarly customer workflow, cloud ops far enough to make good calls and keep experts moving
• Habitual AI power user (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, or whatever's next)
• Strong opinions on AI-augmented engineering; always finding tools that make the team faster
• You can explain technical trade-offs to engineers and non-engineers alike, and you know when to cut corners and when to be rigorous
• Background or genuine curiosity in agriculture, climate, or deep tech / hardware
• Some experience interfacing ML or CV into a real product
• You've worked close to hardware or physical systems before
