Fullstack Engineer - Roadmaps Team

Location: Prague or Brno 🇨🇿

About the Role:

We’re looking for a Senior Fullstack Engineer to join our Roadmaps team, one of the most used and visually dynamic parts of Productboard. You’ll work on complex, user-facing features that help our customers visualize and plan their product strategies, ensuring our Roadmaps remain high-performing, delightful, and ready to support a wide array of use cases.

In this role, you’ll collaborate daily with our Product Manager, Product Designer, Engineering Manager, and eight other engineers at various levels—from junior to staff. You’ll be a key contributor to architecture discussions, code reviews, and observability efforts, leveraging React & TypeScript on the frontend, and Kotlin & Spring Boot on the backend within a distributed environment using federated GraphQL for data fetching.

Beyond hands-on coding, you’ll play a pivotal role in mentoring and guiding the team, contributing to our culture of customer-centricity, collaboration, and ownership. As part of a hybrid work setup, you’ll join us frequently in our Prague office to foster deeper connections with your peers, while still having the flexibility to collaborate remotely. If you’re excited to shape the future of a high-impact, feature-rich product area alongside an experienced team, we’d love to hear from you!

What You’ll Achieve:

• Build End-to-End Features: You’ll craft intuitive, performant frontends in React while building and refining the backend systems that power them. Your work will directly impact thousands of product teams worldwide.
• Develop Across the Entire Tech Stack: You’ll work comfortably across backend services (Kotlin, Ruby, GraphQL, Postgres) and frontend (React, TypeScript), ensuring seamless integrations and cohesive user experiences.
• Solve Complex Product Challenges: You’ll bring your creativity to tackle challenging technical and product problems, being involved in every phase of development—from concept to implementation and beyond.
• Collaborate Cross-Functionally: You will work closely with product managers, designers, and other engineers to deliver impactful results in an iterative, learning-focused development process.
• Gain Customer Insight: By understanding customer needs and usage patterns, you will inform design decisions and shape features that resonate with users.
• Drive Observability and Quality: You will contribute to building scalable, observable systems, ensuring that both backend and frontend components are robust and easy to maintain.
• Grow Professionally: You’ll continue to develop your skills and grow your expertise within a culture that encourages continuous learning and experimentation.

Skills You’ll Bring:

• Proven Fullstack Engineering Experience: 5+ years of engineering experience, including significant frontend and backend contributions on customer-facing products.
• Frontend Expertise: Experience building intuitive, performant interfaces using React and TypeScript. Comfortable with component design, state management, and frontend performance optimization.
• Backend Expertise: Strong experience with Kotlin (or Java), Ruby, or similar languages, with a solid understanding of designing APIs and working with relational databases.
• Pragmatic & Business-Oriented: You balance craft, speed, and business impact, choosing practical solutions over chasing trends.
• System Thinking: You understand how frontend, backend, and infrastructure work together, and how to optimize performance across the stack.
• GraphQL Experience: Familiarity with GraphQL, ideally with federated architecture, and an understanding of effective schema design.
• Collaborative and Empathetic: You communicate effectively, respect diverse perspectives, and prioritize building a positive, inclusive team culture.
• Focused on Delivery: You prioritize well, aligning your work with customer and team goals, while delivering incremental value.
• User-Centric: You build with customer needs in mind, making thoughtful trade-offs to balance speed, quality, and user impact.
• Curious and Adaptable: Eager to learn new technologies, patterns, and systems, and unphased by managing multiple projects in a dynamic environment.
• Startup Mentality: Self-motivated, adaptable, and able to thrive in an environment with both stability and room for individual impact.

Nice to Haves:

• Technical Depth: Advanced skills in areas such as GraphQL, frontend performance optimization, distributed systems, or infrastructure automation.
• UI/UX Sensibility: An eye for design and user experience that helps create polished, intuitive interfaces.
• Infrastructure Interest: Familiarity with cloud environments (AWS), CI/CD pipelines, or observability tools.
• Diverse Interests: Passions outside of tech are valued and enrich our team’s perspectives.

What’s in it for you?

• Be part of building the world’s first and best Product Platform that fundamentally changes how our industry approaches product management.
• Your customers are among the best product teams globally, giving you a unique opportunity to learn and advance your craft.
