YGO.ai is a VC-funded AI tourism platform looking for a Product Engineer who uses AI to ship fast.
IMPORTANT: This is not a traditional coding role. You’ll use Claude Code and other AI tools to 10x your output, always thinking about how the product or feature you are working on benefits the user. Also: we have no QA team, you OWN the quality of what you ship!
Full ownership: every engineer at YGO owns their work end-to-end (IC + DRI). There is no architect handing you designs and no lead reviewing over your shoulder. Within your area, you are the architect. Our pod leads are spokespeople and coordinators, not technical gatekeepers.
Growth path: we identify future pod leads from within. If client conversations, coordination and product planning appeal to you, say so. It’s a genuine plus, never a requirement.
WHAT YOU’LL ACTUALLY DO:
Own features end-to-end: from specs to deployment to fixing bugs
Use Claude Code to generate Golang backend code
Review AI output for quality and architectural fit
Fix bugs to learn our codebase, then rapidly build new features
Make quick decisions on what to build vs buy vs generate with AI
Talk to customers when they report issues and ship fixes same day
OUR STACK:
Backend: Go monorepo (no framework, 3+ services)
Hosting: PaaS-managed containers, local setup fully mirrors production via Docker Compose
