Job Description

Product Engineer
Job Description:
Summary
Our client is looking for a Product Engineer to rapidly ideate, design, build, and deploy internal tools that close the gap between user needs and Engineering's roadmap. Combining product sense with hands-on, AI-assisted development, you will work directly with the Services Localization team, their Client internal partners, and their vendors to identify high-impact pain points and deliver secure, compliant, reliable, and maintainable solutions. This is a hybrid Product Manager and Developer role: you will own discovery, build the solution, refine it with users, and deploy it through approved channels. You will operate as a fast-moving "innovation lane" that complements Engineering, prototyping solutions across the full suite of Localization tools and feeding validated, long-term ideas back into the core roadmap. This position offers the opportunity to shape how our team addresses user needs and to push the boundaries of what AI-assisted rapid prototyping can deliver responsibly.

Key Qualifications
" Proven experience building and shipping software solutions (preferably internal tools or enterprise software), owning the lifecycle from discovery through deployment and maintenance.
" Strong product sense to conduct user discovery, validate problems, scope solutions, and prioritize based on business impact.
" Analytical thinking to understand user problems and design holistic solutions that align with the organization's global vision, strategy, and goals.
" Hands-on proficiency with AI-assisted development, using it to prototype and deliver production-quality tools quickly and responsibly.
" Demonstrated understanding of technical concepts including software development, database management, API and system integration, and modern web application development.
" A security- and compliance-first mindset, with the judgment to build tools that meet established InfoSec, confidentiality, and quality standards.
" Commitment to durable engineering: clean, documented, maintainable code built for adoption, reliability, and scale.
" Exceptional integrity, applying high standards to all endeavors, big and small.
" Extraordinary communication and collaboration skills, comfortable working directly with users, partners, and vendors.
" Ability to think critically and plan ahead, anticipating problems, opportunities, and needs that might arise in the future.

Description
As a Product Engineer, you will develop and maintain AI-assisted tools for the Services Localization team and their partners. This includes engaging with users to uncover unmet needs and understand their context; rapidly designing and building solutions within Client's approved tooling, infrastructure, design language, and security standards; iterating with users in short, fast cycles to validate usefulness before scaling; and deploying solutions through approved channels with the right InfoSec reviews, ownership, and documentation in place. You will monitor, update, and responsibly retire tools so the portfolio stays healthy, and leverage usage analytics to quantify value and inform keep/improve/retire decisions. Where applicable, you will build MCPs (Model Context Protocol) that let LLMs interact with the tools, including performing actions and querying data in natural language. You will also collaborate with Product Managers and their Engineering partners to define the criteria and handoff process for promoting proven, high-usage prototypes into the core tool suite roadmap.

Education
Bachelor's degree or equivalent work experience

Preferred Skills
" Experience conducting user discovery and triaging issue reports
" Familiarity with modern web frameworks (e.g., React), backend development, and SQL
" Experience building AI agents, RAG pipelines, or LLM tool-use integrations
" Experience with usage analytics and data-informed prioritization
