Orbit | Product Engineer
- Role: Product Engineer
- Type: Full-time
- Location: REMOTE (EU)
- Language: Good English required; German is a plus
About Orbit
Orbit is an AI-first logistics operating system—covering order intake, route planning, carrier management, driver app, tracking, and documents—replacing the Excel-and-phone stack that most of transport logistics still runs on. We're bootstrapped, profitable, and growing in a market full of VC-funded competitors. Our customers stay because the product works.
The Role
We call it Product Engineer because you own a piece of the product from idea to production—deciding the solution, building it, shipping it, and iterating on feedback. This is not ticket-driven work; you will be part of a small, strong team.
How We Build
We practice spec-driven agentic development, not vibe coding. You will orchestrate agents against structured specs and persistent project context, verify output, and help build the harness itself (skills, context layers, workflows, evals). We believe the engineering bottleneck has moved from typing speed to judgment—knowing what good software looks like and directing agents to produce it.
Tech Stack
- Languages/Frameworks: TypeScript, Node.js, React/Remix, React Native/Expo
- Tools/Libraries: zod, tRPC, SST
- Infrastructure: AWS (Lambda, DynamoDB/ElectroDB)
- AI Layer: Bedrock
- Note: You do not need to know every line of this stack.
Culture & Benefits
- Work Environment: All-remote (EU), async-first, low-meeting culture.
- Communication: Writing is the most important skill here.
- Compensation: Profit sharing via our "Own Orbit" program.
- Team Connection: Quarterly meetups in Hamburg and team offsites ("SpaceWalks") wherever two or more Orbiters want to meet—Orbit covers the stay.
How to Apply
No cover letter required. Show us something you built—a side project, an agent workflow, a repo, or an MCP server—and tell us how you work with agents.
