About
About the Role At Maker, we build an AI‑powered page builder for ecommerce teams who want to be on the forefront of technology. We package complex AI into tools that feel simple — so our customers can build high‑converting pages without needing to understand the technology behind them.
We're looking for a product engineer. Not a frontend engineer. Not a backend engineer. Someone who owns features end‑to‑end from understanding the user problem, to architecting the solution, to shipping it and watching how people use it.
You’ll work across the stack. Our codebase spans TypeScript and ReScript, React and HTMX on the frontend, Node.js on the backend, running on serverless infrastructure (Vercel, AWS, Fastly, Cloudflare). You don't need to know all of it, you need to be the kind of engineer who picks things up fast and isn't boxed in by a specialization.
AI tools are part of how we work every day. You’ll write less code and review more. Your judgment about what ships and what isn’t good enough is what matters most.
What working here looks like
You’ll own features from idea to production. No one hands you a spec and walks away
You’ll shape product decisions, not just implement them. We expect you to have opinions about what we should build and why
You’ll build interfaces that ecommerce store owners can understand without a tutorial
You’ll make architectural calls that balance speed with long‑term quality
You’ll use AI to move fast, but you’ll know when to slow down and think for yourself
You might be a good fit if you
Have deep experience building production software and can point to products you shaped, not just code you wrote
Have built and scaled at least one product from zero to real usage (10x–100x growth)
Have strong React and Node.js experience with solid API design instincts
Have worked at an early‑stage, product‑focused startup and thrived in the ambiguity
Think about the user before you think about the architecture
Communicate clearly in English - in code, in docs, in conversation
It’s an added plus if you
Were a founder, co‑founder, or early employee (first 10–20 hires) at a startup
Have worked on products in our space: page builders, design tools, visual editors, AI creative tools, AI coding tools
Have built side projects or open source work you’re proud of
Have experience with HTMX, Alpine.js, or ReScript
Can show us how you use AI tools pragmatically — when to lean on them and when not
How we hire Our process reflects how we actually work. No LeetCode. No whiteboard algorithms.
Intro conversation
– We talk about your background, what drives you, and what you’ve built. We want to see how you think about product and technology together.
Real‑world project
– We give you an open‑ended problem inspired by something we’re actually thinking about at Maker. Use any tools you want – AI agents, copilots, whatever makes you fast. We care about what you deliver, how you scope it, and whether you can explain your decisions.
Team session
– A working conversation with the team. We’re evaluating fit in both directions.
If this sounds like the kind of work you want to do, we’d love to hear from you – even if you don’t check every box. The best people we’ve hired surprised us.
