What is this role...

Bounce is seeking a Product Engineer to join our Lisbon office. This role will play a pivotal part in crafting new products atop our platform and expanding the efficacy of the Bounce marketplace.

You will work on marketplace health, owning the end-to-end flow across our customer and partner experiences — and supporting operational teams by improving supply quality, helping the Customer Support team, and strengthening the reliability of the core Bounce experience.

As a Product Engineer, you will take ownership of real-world customer problems, crafting intelligent and efficient solutions across both backend and frontend. You will have the opportunity to own projects in various areas, such as our consumer apps, growth engines, and partner tools.

• Partner closely with operational teams (Supply, Partner Success, Customer Support) to improve supply quality, reduce operational load, and strengthen day-to-day execution.

• Keep the lights on for the core business: handle day-to-day maintenance, address operational issues quickly, and continuously improve reliability and resiliency.

• Write high-quality code for our mobile and web applications.

• Assume strong ownership of products and services, and continuously improve and maintain existing code and architecture.

• Work in a fast-paced environment and shoulder the responsibility and commitment of the production environment — including improving reliability and resolving production issues when needed.

• Work with Elixir, React Native, Expo, React, NextJS, and Typescript, and introduce other technologies when beneficial.

• Bring a passion for staying on top of industry trends, experimenting with and learning new technologies, and participating in internal and external technology communities.
