Full Stack Engineer
About Potpie
Potpie is building the foundation layer for spec-driven development in large, complex codebases. We focus on making software systems understandable, debuggable, and operable through structured context and AI agents. This is not about incremental tooling. This is about rethinking how software systems are built, evolved, and scaled.
Role
We are looking for a Full Stack Developer who can think in systems and build end-to-end products with clarity and ownership. This is not a task-driven role. You will be expected to take ideas, shape them into products, and iterate quickly based on real usage.
What you will do
- Build and ship end-to-end features across frontend and backend
- Design scalable APIs and services that power AI-driven workflows
- Work closely with research and product teams to translate ideas into usable systems
- Own performance, reliability, and developer experience of the product
- Experiment rapidly and iterate based on feedback
- Contribute to architectural decisions as the system evolves
- Write clean, maintainable, and well-documented code
What we are looking for
- Strong fundamentals in computer science and system design
- Experience building full stack applications (frontend + backend)
- Ability to move fast from idea to production
- Comfort working in ambiguity and taking ownership
- Good communication skills and ability to collaborate across teams
Tech stack (indicative, not restrictive)
- Frontend: React / Next.js
- Backend: Node.js / Python / Java / C / C++
- Databases: PostgreSQL, Redis
- Infrastructure: AWS / GCP
- Experience with APIs, microservices, and distributed systems
Bonus
- Experience building developer tools or platforms
- Familiarity with AI/ML systems or LLM integrations
- Understanding of codebases at scale (monorepos, large systems)
- Contributions to open source projects
Why should you join Potpie?
You will be working at the intersection of AI and real-world software systems. The goal is not just to build features, but to shape how modern software is developed and maintained.
- Strong customer pull
We are already seeing real demand from enterprise customers. This is not speculative. Teams are actively looking for a solution like this, and we are in the middle of that demand curve already working with F500s and public companies.
- Deployed with leading enterprises
The product is already live in real-world environments with enterprise customers. You won’t be building in isolation, you’ll be shaping a system that is actively used in production.
- At an inflection point
We have early validation, a growing pipeline, and clear momentum. More importantly, we are solving a very critical problem in software engineering that every large team struggles with today. The need for this is widely acknowledged, and the opportunity ahead is significant. The next phase is about scaling execution and capturing that opportunity.
- Venture-backed with momentum
We’ve recently raised capital and have the backing to move fast. The focus now is execution, growth, and building a category-defining company.
- Define a foundational layer for engineering
If we get this right, Potpie becomes a foundational layer for how modern engineering systems are built and operated inside enterprises globally.
- Meaningful upside as an early leader
You will be one of the early hires shaping the company. This comes with competitive compensation and significant ESOP ownership. Given the stage we are at today, the upside on ESOPs over the next 3 to 4 years can be substantial with good execute.
