Staff Software Engineer (Product)
Confirmed on the employer's own hiring board on Oct 9, 2026. First seen by Alion on Sep 25, 2026.
Join Sharpist as a Staff Product Engineer and play a key role in shaping AI-powered learning. You will own features end-to-end, craft great user experiences, and build solutions that help people grow. Your work will involve defining business problems, writing technical specifications, implementing solutions, and measuring their effectiveness. You will also use AI and LLM tools as a core part of your workflow.
Missions
- Posséder des fonctionnalités de bout en bout, concevoir une excellente expérience utilisateur et construire ce qui aide les gens à se développer.
- Prendre un problème commercial et en être responsable : façonner la solution, rédiger la spécification technique, travailler à la mise en œuvre, la publier et vérifier si cela a réellement fonctionné.
- Utiliser les outils d'IA et de LLM comme partie intégrante de votre travail, y compris la rédaction de spécifications, le prototypage et la mise en œuvre.
Profil recherché
- You have strong intuition for UX: you notice what confuses users, what creates friction, and what feels right- You can write a clear, technically grounded specification, and you know what makes one bad
- You think like a Product Engineer: you’ve owned full feature development, including defining the solution rather than only building what someone else specified
- You use AI and LLM tools as a core part of how you work across specifications, prototyping, and implementation, not as a gimmick. Self-directed experiments and side projects count as evidence
- You speak and write fluent English
- You can spot what LLMs miss: a wrong abstraction, a brittle data model, or a specification that looks fine until it meets production
- 10+ years of professional software engineering experience
- Judgment: You know when something is technically sound vs. technically plausible-but-painful
- Ownership: When ownership is unclear, you step forward. When you're blocked, you find a solution; you don't shift the problem up
- Clarity: You write specs that don't need a meeting to explain
- Speed: You move fast without creating rework for others
- Mission belief: You genuinely care about helping people. That's why you're here
- Experience building AI or LLM product features, including prompting, evaluation, or guardrails
- Experience working in a B2B SaaS or HR tech environment
