About this job
Why Mintlify?
We're on a mission to empower builders.
Massive reach: Our docs platform serves 100 million+ developers every year and powers documentation for 20,000+ companies, including Anthropic, Microsoft, PayPal, Spotify, Coinbase, X, and over 20% of the last YC batch.
Small team, huge impact: We recently passed 65 employees and raised a $45 million Series B led by A16Z and Salesforce Ventures. Each new hire has a huge impact on shaping the company's trajectory.
Culture of slope over y-intercept: We value learning velocity, grit, and unapologetically unique personalities.
We grew in value faster than headcount and we’re looking to align the two quickly.
We’re looking for product-minded builders to create essential, customer-facing features. You should have a notable technical "spike," whether that’s crafting sophisticated React interfaces or architecting robust backend infrastructure.
As a Product Engineer, you’ll build polished experiences that solve real customer problems. You’ll collaborate across design and engineering, contribute to product and technical decisions, and take features from development through launch.
What you'll work on here
Building the full lifecycle: Partnering with design and engineering to architect and ship customer-facing functionality from the ground up
Solving complex technical challenges: You’ll tackle difficult problems, from optimizing virtualized rendering to architecting reliable content management system
Driving user experience: Contributing to a frictionless UX, handling the last-mile refinements that transform working code into a great product
Performance and scale: Enhancing application speed through profiling and build scalable solutions that evolve with our growing user base
Shaping product direction and engineering approaches across the stack
What you bring to the table
A technical “spike”: You have strong experience in either:
Frontend: React, Next.js, and TypeScript, including component architecture, state management, and rendering performance
Backend: Systems design, API architecture, and database optimization
You have strong product intuition and care about the "why" as much as the "how" when building user-facing software
You are adaptable and willing to jump into new territory across the stack to ship a feature
You appreciate a high degree of ownership and thrive when defining solutions rather than following a spec
You’re eager to talk directly with customers and use those insights to shape what we build
Why you should join our engineering team
You’ll solve technically ambitious product problems alongside a team that values craft, speed, and thoughtful execution. Here’s a taste of what the team has built:
How we built a virtual filesystem for our Assistant
Introducing the collaborative editor built for teams and agents
Docs URL Benchmark: Markdown & llms.txt > HTML
Engineers here are product builders with high agency; you'll drive change and have a voice in strategic decisions
You’ll have plenty of heads-down builder time on a small-but-mighty team where the best ideas win
We’ll find the intersection between what excites you and business priorities. You’ll own projects, ship, and see immediate impact
