- Bounce is seeking a Product Engineer for New Verticals to join our Lisbon office.
- This role will play a pivotal part in crafting new products that expand what Bounce can do for travelers — beyond luggage storage — and bring us closer to our vision: a world where people can live life light, without thinking about their stuff.
- As a Product Engineer, you will take ownership of real customer problems and turn them into simple, delightful experiences across both backend and frontend. You’ll work on early-stage product surfaces, experimentation, and new flows that make traveling (and moving through cities) feel effortless.
- We’re looking for a generalist who thrives in ambiguity, loves shipping, and enjoys owning a feature from concept to production — collaborating closely with Product, Design, and teams across the company.
- At Bounce, we focus on serving our customers and partners rather than solely on technological innovation.
- We work in fast-paced 1-week cycles. Projects are usually scoped down to fit into one or two cycles. Projects are led by individuals, but are a shared effort across the entire team. There will always be aspects of any project that will require collaboration, feedback, and guidance—we expect you to ask for help.
- An ideal candidate is excited by all aspects of this software-building process, not just writing code. We’re a small team that thrives off of individuals who can take features from an idea to live on production. This is not a role where issues will be assigned to you and you churn through them.
- Build and iterate on new product experiences across mobile and web, from idea → prototype → production.
- Own customer-facing flows end-to-end: onboarding, booking, post-booking, and “make it feel magical” moments.
- Collaborate with global teams to explore and validate new ventures, turning learnings into product direction quickly.
- Write high-quality, maintainable code — and improve existing architecture as new verticals push the platform forward.
- Contribute across the stack using Elixir, React Native/Expo, React, NextJS, and Typescript (and introduce new tools when beneficial).
- Help shape how we build: fast cycles, high ownership, pragmatic experimentation, and strong craft.
