Requirements
  • Cloud and AI knowledge and awareness. AI, GenAI, Machine Learning and at least familiarity with one of the major clouds (AWS, GCP, Azure)
  • Depth and quality of experience is more important than number of years, but typically a good target is that you have at least 3+ years of experience with machine learning projects.
  • Expertise in building the modern web with JavaScript, HTML, and CSS. You likely have used libraries or frameworks like React or Next.js, but we care much more about the fundamentals than the tech stack.
  • Track record of delivering impactful and engaging user experiences that delight users.
  • Excellent communication skills. We’re a remote-first team and we’re going to be moving fast together. Good communication is key.
  • Detail oriented. We have to care about the details, and while we don’t expect you to be a designer, you need to care about the product experience that our teams are shipping.
  • Customer obsession. As we are a core product with years of muscle memory, we need an engineer who is able and willing to leverage the voice of the customer to expedite decision making, develop conviction, and most importantly delight our user.
  • Based in the San Francisco Bay Area.
Responsibilities
  • Own and deliver. Deliver improvements to the core product experience that help us achieve our goals around onboarding and activation
  • Innovate and experiment. Lead experiments with new AI-driven features, iterating quickly on prototypes to validate ideas and gather feedback, while keeping an eye on emerging trends and technologies in the AI space
  • More deeply integrate AI. Postbot is a useful experience right now, but to make it more useful, we need to integrate it in key surfaces like the script editor and documentation editor and establish best-in-class integration patterns in doing so
  • Own end-to-end workflows. Own end-to-end and understand core workflows, driving measurable improvements to user experience particularly focused on first-time user experience (sign-up, onboarding, and beyond)
  • Deeply understand the user. Collaborate and work with end users (developers!) using Postman to understand their core workflows and then use that knowledge to improve our product
  • Learn and grow. Broaden your knowledge of the core product and the domain over time, starting with Postbot’s integration strategy and in doing so expand to complete product knowledge and ability to make and influence changes across key products in the Postman user journey in API client, collections, and workspaces
  • Collaborate across boundaries and geographies. Collaborate on team processes to streamline collaboration across US and India team members
