Careers

We hire by watching people work, not by interviewing them.

Most full-time roles here started with a paid project. We operate as a high-performance studio, not a typical corporation, and we share the upside directly with our builders through real ownership.

Every role is senior. Every role comes with ownership

Most full-time roles here started with a paid project. Every one of them owns a domain outright.

How we hire

We hire by watching people work, not by interviewing them. The funnel mirrors the one on the projects page, so the two reinforce each other.

01Apply

A twelve-minute video, async. The questions are calibrated to the project or role you applied for.

~12 minutes

02Chemistry call

Thirty to sixty minutes with a senior team member, usually the CEO. Strategic alignment and mutual fit. No problem-solving exercise.

30–60 minutes

03Paid project

One to three weeks as a contractor on real work alongside the team. Day one onsite for setup, then remote. Paid at your rate.

1–3 weeks

04Decision

Within two or three days of the trial ending. An offer, one extension on a different project, or a clean exit. No theater either way.

2–3 days

The basics, handled

Full health coverage

All premiums covered for you and your family. Medical, dental, vision.

Daily catered lunch

For the LA team. One less thing to think about during the workday.

Unlimited PTO

That we actually expect you to use. Recharge is not optional, it is structural.

Remote flexibility

An LA headquarters with full remote support. Work where you do your best thinking.

We don’t care about your pedigree. We care about your mechanics.

You are a first-principles thinker.

You deconstruct problems to their mechanics before reaching for frameworks. You distrust best practices that lack underlying reasoning. You ask why before you ask how.

You ship.

You have a track record of delivering complex systems to production, not just prototypes. You measure your work in deployed code, not design docs. You know the difference between motion and progress.

You operate with extreme agency.

You do not wait for permission and you do not need detailed instructions. Given a problem and its constraints, you find the path and execute. You treat ambiguity as a feature, not a blocker.

You want to own something.

Not ownership mentality from a culture deck. Real ownership, with equity behind it, in a company that is profitable and bootstrapped.

13 people. $22M revenue. We’re just getting started.

Product.ai is building the verification layer for AI-era commerce. We are profitable, bootstrapped, and growing. If this is the kind of work you want to do, and the kind of structure you want to do it in, we should talk.
