Our goal is simple: empower people to create worlds, stories, and experiences that others can get lost in.<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;re still at the beginning of our own story, and we&#8217;re looking for a few people to help write the next chapters.<\/p>\n<p>In a moment where &#8220;AI creative tools&#8221; are pumping out slop on one side and vicious debate on the other, we&#8217;re choosing a different path: use this technology to empower human creativity and craft, not replace it.<\/p>\n<p>This isn&#8217;t going to be easy \u2014 but you&#8217;ll actually shape something real. Something that will reach millions of people.

But you also go further down the stack: data models, APIs, performance, reliability, and the messy systems work needed to ship great product.<\/p>\n<p>You are also <strong>extremely comfortable with AI tooling<\/strong>. You use it daily (Cursor, Claude Code, etc.) to explore solutions, generate and refine code, debug faster, and ship at a pace that would be hard to match otherwise.<\/p>\n<h3>What you\u2019ll do<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Build features end-to-end: product thinking \u2192 implementation \u2192 launch \u2192 iteration.<\/li>\n<li>Partner tightly with design and engineering to turn ambiguous ideas into shipped product in days, not weeks.<\/li>\n<li>Own UI craft <em>and<\/em> the underlying technical decisions that make experiences fast, reliable, and scalable.<\/li>\n<li>Shape how we build: patterns, primitives, component quality, testing, and internal tooling.<\/li>\n<li>Use AI tools as a multiplier. You prompt well, iterate quickly, and maintain a high quality bar.<\/li>\n<li>Communicate directly and clearly. No corporate padding.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>What we care about<\/h3>\n<p>Experience helps, but it\u2019s not a gate. If you\u2019ve built and shipped real things \u2014 jobs, side projects, experiments \u2014 and you can walk us through what you built, why you built it that way, what broke, and how you solved it, you\u2019re good.<\/p>\n<p>Ownership matters more than pedigree.<\/p>\n<h3>Specifically<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Strong product engineering fundamentals (TypeScript, React, Next.js or similar).<\/li>\n<li>Enough backend understanding to build features without getting blocked (APIs, auth, data flow, persistence, basic infra concepts).<\/li>\n<li>Taste. You can feel what\u2019s working and what isn\u2019t \u2014 and you can fix it.<\/li>\n<li>You can go from a rough idea to a polished implementation without waiting for a perfect spec.<\/li>\n<li>You think in systems: performance, edge cases, instrumentation, maintainability.<\/li>\n<li>You use AI tools daily to accelerate your work \u2014 not as a crutch, but as leverage.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Extra pluses<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Experience with Figma or similar design tools for rapid prototyping.<\/li>\n<li>You care about accessibility and inclusive UX.<\/li>\n<li>You\u2019ve built interactions and motion that feel <em>good<\/em>, not just functional.<\/li>\n<li>You read fiction, build worlds, or create things for fun.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>To apply:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/weworkremotely.com\/remote-jobs\/vvd-product-engineer\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/weworkremotely.com\/remote-jobs\/vvd-product-engineer<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Headquarters: Canada We know applying for jobs is exhausting.
