About Our Client

Our client is a Start-Up and is looking to hire a Product Engineer working with Claude Code. This is their first Engineering hire and you will own the AI Agent chain for the Platform Build. This role can be done mostly remote with odd travel to Central London.

Job Description

  • Design and develop new product features and functionalities in line with business objectives using Claude Code.
  • Participate in Product decisions - help shape what gets built, in what order and why
  • Own the translation of product intent into effective briefs that the factory can execute against.
  • Ensure all products meet technical and quality standards before release.
  • Analyse and troubleshoot product issues, implementing solutions to improve performance.
  • Define and maintain the target technical architecture for the platform, ensuring every Claude Code output aligns with it.
  • Continuously review architecture decisions as the codebase evolves
  • Own the documentation of the Product.
  • Guide Claude Code through effective prompting: precise context injection, constraint specification, and decomposition of complex work.
  • Know when to reject a plan entirely vs refine it vs let it run.
  • Review all code outputs for correctness, security, performance, and adherence to conventions.
  • Catch AI-specific failure patterns: hallucinated dependencies, plausible-but-wrong logic, over-engineering, pattern mimicry without understanding.
  • Monitor chain performance. When is fails, fix the chain.
