Ashby
San Francisco, CA
Base pay range

Hi
I’m Abhik, Ashby’s Co-Founder and VP of Engineering. We’re looking for a versatile, persistent product engineer who’s not afraid to set up reusable building blocks across the stack and advocate for the time and space to do so. At Ashby, all our engineers ship features end-to-end at a high pace. We’ll give you the room to do your best work, and you’ll be our guide! If that speaks to you, read on.
What Ashby gives you is the best of both early and growth-stage environments. The agency and no-nonsense of a seed startup : you write product specs, make product and design decisions, and build in an almost-no-meeting culture. While also the product‑market fit and scale of a growth‑stage startup : tens of thousands of daily users who depend on your software and eagerly await your next feature.
We have notable customers like Notion, Linear, Shopify, and Snowflake. Our growth and retention metrics are best‑in‑class among our peers : we have tens of millions in ARR, growing >
100% year over year, very low churn, and many years of runway.
As a Product Engineer, you’ll take ownership over a large portion of one of our products and own projects end‑to‑end. You’ll research competitors, write product specs, make wireframes, and more. Examples of work product engineers have done at Ashby include :
Designed and built automated interview scheduling that solves the “Calendar Tetris” problem.
Built a generalized declarative filter architecture that allows users to create complex filters for any record with a consistent UI.
Specced, designed, and implemented a feature that allows users to complete signing offers entirely within Ashby.
Software Engineers Come In Many Flavors. Here are some traits that fit us :
You’re not afraid to tackle any part of a technology stack.
You’ve tackled projects with a lot of product and technical ambiguity.
You know how to strike the right balance between speed and quality.
You are ambitious and always looking to improve your skills.
You’re an excellent collaborator and communicator.
You seek to create leverage in your work.
Put Another Way, You Shouldn’t Apply If :
You expect a tech lead or principal to spend most of their time project managing or doing architecture reviews.
You need company-driven process and structure to get your projects across the finish line.
You only want to do exciting work with no distributed customer issues.
You can get lost in the details and like everything to be planned upfront.
You haven’t led or taken ownership of projects before.
You want to mentor early‑career engineers.
Engineering Culture :
Minimal process with ownership of decisions normally made by product and design.
Natural collaboration and deliberate communication.
Investing in tools and abstractions that give us leverage.
Putting effort into building a diverse team.
Our interview process is three rounds :
Introduction call with Hiring Manager (15 to 30 minutes, live).
A technical screen where we pair in our actual codebase (1 hour, live).
Three non‑coding interviews focusing on product thinking, technical design, and infrastructure (3 hours 15 minutes, live, can be split across multiple days).
Your hiring manager will be your main point of contact. If we don’t give an offer, we’ll provide feedback.
First Three Months : Onboarding, product changes from simple copy to impactful feature, 30 / 60 / 90‑day reviews.
Technology Stack : TypeScript, React, GraphQL API, Node.js, Postgres, Redis.
Benefits :
Competitive salary and equity.
10‑year exercise window for stock options.
Unlimited PTO.
Minimum of 12 weeks of fully paid parental leave.
Generous equipment, software, and office furniture budget.
$100 / month education budget.
Top‑tier health insurance for US employees, supplemental for others.
