Job description
About Metaview
Metaview is the antitoil company. Toil is the force that opposes progress — it is to progress as friction is to motion. Our answer to toil is HumanComputer Symbiosis.
AI copilots will fundamentally change how work gets done:
Python to write our backend application code.
Typescript and React to write our frontend application code
Serverless Framework for creating and managing our application infrastructure.
Terraform for managing the foundational infrastructure.
AWS for all of our infrastructure.
Youre fiercely ambitious and fundamentally interested in doing great work.
Youre passionate about your craft and it feels weird to call it work.
You’re excited by the ambiguous terrain that comes with being part of an earlystage company.
You love buildingshipping and are curious about starting your own company one day.
You get fired up by the fact that our most valuable asset is our velocity.
We expect you’ll also be a significant part of what gets added to and removed from this list.
About you
Here are some characteristics and traits that are good leading indicators of success at Metaview. This should also give you an idea of the type of people that are already on the team:
Metaview is the AI copilot for hiring.
In April 2018, Siadhal and Shahriar left their jobs at Uber and Palantir to build Metaview for themselves — to remedy all the pain they felt building products and teams. Today, Metaview is powering workflows for thousands of users at generational companies like Quora, Robinhood, Brex, Elastic, and Replit.
We have a small, highperforming, and highvelocity team — obsessed with doing great work.
About the role
At Metaview, a Product Engineer is a customerobsessed, productfocused Software Engineer. Fundamentally, this means a Product Engineer works towards goals, not tasks. As one of our first Product Engineers, you’ll lead the design, development, and operations of our products. We’re a small and autonomous team, so you’ll end up wearing many hats and having meaningful impact.
A Product Engineer is by necessity full stack, but we appreciate everyone has their biases and areas of expertise. For this role, were looking for backend bias. Youll spend most of your coding cycles on the backend but you may have to touch other parts of the stack to unblock yourself and maintain high velocity.
It doesn’t matter what languages and tools you know when you join us, but it does matter that you can write clean, effective code and are excited by learning new languages and tools. Our product is constantly evolving, so we need engineers who can do the same. Our current stack consists of tools and technologies such as:
