Full Job Description
Why Join Us

We're hiring a Staff Product Engineer to own product outcomes end-to-end. We don't have product managers at Aurelian - our engineers talk to customers, decide what to build, and ship it.

This role is for someone who is as excited about why we're building something as how. You'll write code every week, but the thing that makes you exceptional is your ability to deeply understand a problem, make smart product decisions, and own the outcome.

What You'll Be Doing
  • Own product outcomes, not just features: You won't be handed a spec. You'll talk to customers, identify the highest-leverage problems, figure out what to build, and build it.
  • Be the PM for your area: You'll define the roadmap, make prioritization tradeoffs, and communicate progress across the company.
  • Ship fast and iterate: Build and ship features across our platform - from AI call handling, to dispatcher-facing tools, to analytics and integrations. Get things into customers' hands, learn, and iterate.
  • Work directly with customers: Our users are 9-1-1 dispatchers and PSAP administrators. You'll visit dispatch centers, watch how they use the product, and use that context to drive what you build next.
Who We're Looking For
  • Product thinker first, engineer second: You've owned products or features end-to-end - not just built what someone else decided. You think in terms of user problems and outcomes, not just technical solutions.
  • Comfortable across the stack: 6+ years of software engineering experience. You can build what needs building - frontend, backend, or both. You don't need to be the deepest technical expert on the team, but you're a capable, confident engineer.
  • High ownership: You see a problem, figure out the right thing to build, and drive it to completion. You take responsibility for outcomes, not just your code.
  • Customer empathy: You genuinely like understanding how people use software. You're energized by customer conversations, not drained by them.

We encourage you to apply even if you don't meet every qualification listed above. We believe exceptional people come from many different backgrounds, and we'd rather connect with you than miss the opportunity.

Come do the best work of your life and join us in shaping the future of critical technology that truly matters.

For Full-Time roles, Aurelian offers a variety of benefits, including:
  • Comprehensive Medical, Dental, Vision & Life insurance
  • 401(k)
  • Unlimited PTO
  • Company-wide offsites
  • Equipment stipend
  • Relocation assistance
  • Daily delivered lunches (on us)
  • Office in Seattle
  • Start-up Equity
