Product Engineer (Next.js / Node) - AI Encouraged

Freedom Technology Partners
Houston, TX
Remote
Job Description
Role Overview

We're hiring a pragmatic Full-Stack Product Engineer to own vertical slices of customer products across React/Next.js and Node.js/Fastify, with Prisma and PostgreSQL. A key part of this role is intentional prototyping, paired with close collaboration with Product / Project Managers.

What You Will Do

Own vertical feature slices end-to-end across React/Next.js (TypeScript), Node.js/Fastify APIs, and Postgres via Prisma, partnering closely with Product/Project Managers from concept through delivery. Rapidly prototype workflows and UI flows in collaboration with Product/Project Managers to validate direction with customers.

Why It Might Be a Fit

You'll use AI agents to accelerate specification, implementation, and testing — not as a shortcut, but as leverage to move faster while maintaining quality. You'll move fluidly between rapid experimentation, clear scoping and refinement with Product/Project Managers, and production-quality implementation.

Requirements

  • Experience building full-stack JS/TS products
  • Solid API design (auth, pagination, error handling, rate limiting)
  • Strong React/Next.js and Node experience
  • Comfortable with TypeScript, Fastify, Prisma, Postgres
  • Experience with automated testing (API + UI) and CI/CD
  • Comfortable owning tickets and features end-to-end while maintaining tight collaboration with Product/Project Managers
  • Clear, concise communicator

Benefits

  • Turning ambiguity into clarity
  • Moving fast early, then tightening things up
  • Shipping vertical slices that actually work
  • Improving systems while working inside them
  • Using AI as leverage — not a crutch
