🚀 About the Role
We’re looking for a Senior Product Engineer to join and lead the product engineering team for our flagship consumer app at Dashverse. This role is ideal for someone who’s not just a strong engineer, but also deeply passionate about consumer experiences, product thinking, and hands-on team leadership.
You will own major product initiatives end-to-end—from figuring out what to build, to how we build it, to how we know it’s working. Think of this as being a co-founder for the product, from the engineering side.
This is a high-impact role where you’ll work at the intersection of technology, storytelling, and global content distribution.
