The posting

Most engineers are handed a ticket. At SchooLinks, you own the whole journey.

Our Product Engineers aren't members of a feature team. They are the feature team. You'll start from a problem or a goal, figure out what to build, design the experience, implement it, test it, ship it, and communicate it. No PM to translate for you. No designer to hand you mocks. No QA to catch your bugs before users do. That's not a gap in our process. It's the role.

We're looking for engineers who get uncomfortable when they're too far from the outcome. Who have opinions about UX, not just code quality. Who find product thinking as natural as system design. Who take it personally when something they built doesn't land with users, and who fix it without being asked.

What this looks like in practice

  • You receive context on a user problem or business goal, not a spec
  • You define your own requirements, break down the work, and manage your own scope
  • You make design and UX decisions, getting lightweight feedback when useful
  • You write the code, write the tests, and hold yourself accountable for quality
  • You communicate progress and outcomes directly to stakeholders

This role is probably not for you if you do your best work inside clearly defined tickets, or if you prefer deep specialization over broad ownership. It might be exactly for you if you've always felt constrained by the boundary between "engineering" and "product" and you're ready for a role that erases it.

The stack

Django / Python backend · React / TypeScript frontend · AWS · PostgreSQL · Celery / Redis

We use AI tools (Claude, Cursor) as a standard part of how we plan, build, and document not as an experiment.

Requirements

What you bring

  • Demonstrated ability to own features end-to-end, from ambiguous problem to production
  • Strong Python and React proficiency, built through real production work
  • Solid AWS and SQL experience in production environments
  • Comfortable with async task management and the operational realities of production systems
  • You define requirements from a problem statement, you don't wait for a spec
  • Strong written communication: specs, release notes, and documentation are part of how you deliver
  • This role is for engineers based in Austin, Texas, with the ability to work in the office 1-2 days a week.
  • We are unable to sponsor employment-based visas (H-1B, O-1, EB-3, etc.). Applicants must be eligible to work in the United States without sponsorship.

Nice to have: Celery, Redis, educational data standards (Ed-Fi, One Roster), or genuine interest in ed-tech, career exploration, or workforce development.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
