HR Manager

Fountane Archipelago  ·  Island Role

A Little Bit About the Role

We are looking for a Senior Product Engineer (L3) who thrives in complexity. Most engineers build on blank canvases — you build on someone else’s mess and leave it better than you found it.

The majority of your work at L3 will be on existing, live codebases — disorganised, partially documented, built by multiple teams over multiple years. Your job is to enter those systems, understand them before touching them, extend and clean them without breaking what works, and progressively bring them up to a standard where AI tooling can accelerate further development. This is the core of what L3 does at Fountane. If you have only built greenfield projects, this role will be hard.

You are expected to be genuinely full stack: comfortable owning web applications and mobile apps, the frontend, backend, database, state management, and API integration layer — without needing to hand off to a specialist.

You will work closely with the Concept Engineer on your Island — translating their prototypes into production architecture, raising technical blockers early, and keeping the sprint honest. You will also review code, mentor junior engineers, respond to production incidents, and contribute to the network’s shared knowledge base.

All of this is done primarily with Cursor and Claude as your execution and reasoning tools. AI-assisted engineering is not a feature of this role — it is the method.

AI-First Engineering Expectation

Cursor and Claude are your primary tools — not supplements. Engineers at L3 who are not using AI at the codebase level are not operating at this level.

At L3, AI-assisted engineering means:

• Loading full codebase context into Cursor before writing a single line — understanding the system before touching it.
• Writing scoped, precise refactor prompts that isolate changes to one concern at a time.
• Using Cursor to generate tests that document existing behaviour before any restructuring begins.
• Using Claude for architecture reasoning, decision documentation, and translating CE briefs into structured technical plans.
• Producing inline documentation and decision records as part of the AI-assisted workflow — not as an afterthought.
• Sharing effective prompt patterns and Cursor discoveries with the broader Fountane network — kept to yourself, they are a missed contribution.

Key Responsibilities

Legacy Codebase Refactoring & the Cleaning Phase

This is the primary L3 engagement type at Fountane. You will be handed existing, partially documented codebases — built by previous teams, often without tests, with inconsistent patterns — and your job is to refactor them into a clean, AI-promptable state without losing existing functionality. You use Cursor’s codebase context window to navigate safely, write characterisation tests before touching anything, and make changes in small, reviewable increments. The standard is: every module you leave should be easier to extend by AI tooling than when you found it.

Full Stack Development — Web & Mobile

Build and own the full application layer: React / Next.js web frontends, React Native or Flutter mobile apps, Node.js / Python backends, and relational and non-relational databases. You should be able to pick up web or mobile on any engagement without needing a handoff. Schema design, data modelling, and state architecture are yours to own — including diagnosing and fixing broken or leaking state in existing frontends.

Third-Party API Integrations

Integrate complex third-party services — payments (Stripe), communications (Twilio), auth (Auth0), and others — reliably and without creating brittle dependencies. Own the integration layer end to end: error handling, retries, failure modes, and documentation. If a third-party integration is flaky in production, that is your problem to own.

CE Collaboration & Sprint Integrity

Work directly with the Concept Engineer to translate prototypes into buildable technical plans. Review CE briefs before the sprint starts — if the scope is technically unrealistic, the time to say so is before work begins, not on demo day. Raise blockers against acceptance criteria proactively. You are the technical check on what the CE promises the client.

Security Awareness

Write code that does not require the Lead to security-audit every line. This means: input validation by default, no hardcoded secrets, correct auth scoping, safe handling of user data, and awareness of common vulnerabilities (injection, broken auth, insecure direct object references) in the context of the stacks you work in. You are not the security architect — the Lead owns that — but you are expected to produce code that does not introduce obvious vulnerabilities.

Production Incident Response

When something breaks in production, you are on it. Diagnose the issue, apply a safe fix or rollback, document what happened and why, and hand a clear summary to the Lead for the client post-mortem. Speed matters, but a bad fix that causes a second incident is worse than a slow fix that is correct. Response expectation: acknowledged within 1 hour, resolved or escalated with a clear status within 4 hours.

Codebase Navigation & Safe Refactoring

On all engagements — not just Cleaning Phase work — keep changes small, focused, and reviewable. One type of change per commit. Write tests that document existing behaviour before restructuring. Leave every module easier to understand than when you found it.

Code Review

Review pull requests from L1 and L2 engineers with specific, actionable feedback — not rubber-stamp approvals. A good code review at L3 leaves the author understanding what to do differently next time, not just what to fix now. Review weekly; do not let PRs age.

Mentoring

Review junior engineers’ code weekly with specific, useful feedback — this is distinct from quality-gate code review. The goal here is teaching, not gatekeeping. Run monthly pairing sessions to help them grow. The measure of good mentoring is whether they are becoming more capable and less dependent on you over time.

Documentation

Write short decision records when you make significant technical choices. Leave every module you touch easier to understand than when you found it. Treat documentation as part of the engineering work, not a separate task you do at the end.

Qualifications

• 5+ years of experience as a software engineer, with a strong track record on real production codebases you did not build from scratch — incomplete documentation, inconsistent patterns, other people’s decisions. If your experience is primarily greenfield, this role will be a difficult fit.
• Genuinely full stack across web and mobile: proficient in React / Next.js and at least one of React Native or Flutter, Node.js or Python on the backend, and comfortable with both relational and non-relational databases including schema design.
• Hands-on, daily Cursor and Claude usage at the codebase level. You should be able to describe concretely how you use AI in your engineering workflow — not in general terms.
• Experience integrating complex third-party APIs in production environments — not just following a quickstart guide. You should be able to describe an integration that failed in production and what you did about it.
• Solid security awareness for the stacks you work in: input validation, auth scoping, safe data handling. You do not need a security specialism, but you should not be writing code that introduces obvious vulnerabilities.
• Has conducted meaningful code reviews that improved the code and the author, not just approved the PR.
• Has coached or mentored junior engineers before, and done it well.
• Comfortable with production incident response — diagnosing issues under pressure, applying safe fixes, and communicating clearly to a Lead or client about what happened.
• Treats documentation as part of the job, not an afterthought.
• Bachelor’s or Master’s in Computer Science or a related field, or equivalent experience.

About Fountane

Fountane is a technology ventures lab - one part product studio, one part startup engine. We build high-quality software and AI products for clients ranging from fast-moving startups to large enterprises, and we co-build and invest in new companies when we see the right opportunity.

Founded in 2017 and headquartered in Minneapolis, we have grown to 60+ people across four continents and were recognised as one of America’s fastest-growing companies, ranking No. 699 on the Inc. 5000 with 595% three-year growth.

We are radically open-minded, serious about craft, and direct about expectations. If you want to do meaningful work without politics, this is the place.

What this role is

The market has no shortage of mobile developers who only do mobile, and no shortage of full-stack engineers who have never shipped a production app. This role is neither of those.

You are a Product Engineer whose centre of gravity is mobile. React Native is where you live. You have shipped apps, debugged native integrations, handled platform-specific edge cases, and understand what it actually takes to get something through App Store and Play Store review. That is the non-negotiable foundation.

But at Fountane, Product Engineers build products — not layers. The same feature that lives in a mobile app often has a web surface, an API, a webhook, or a database schema behind it. At L3 you are expected to own the full application surface of what you are building, not hand off the moment the work touches a backend. You will not be doing everything alone — you have a pod. But you will need to be capable of crossing the boundary when the work demands it.

You are joining a permanent Island pod. Your first deployment is to an ongoing client engagement that requires your mobile depth immediately. After that, you are a long-term Islander who will move across engagements as the Mainland deploys you.

What Fountane is actually asking for

We know the market has specialists. We are not pretending this is a standard full-stack role with mobile as a footnote, or a mobile role where full-stack is irrelevant. Mobile is your primary skill. Everything else is your secondary obligation. If you have spent your career going deep on React Native and can hold your own on an API or a web feature when needed, this role fits you.

If you are a pure mobile specialist who cannot — or will not — touch anything outside the app layer, this is not the right fit. Not because we do not respect specialisation, but because Islands do not have room for hard walls between disciplines. The work crosses boundaries. So must you.

What you will own at L3

• React Native application development — the primary mobile codebase, feature delivery, and platform-specific implementation across iOS and Android
• App Store and Play Store release management — build pipelines, submission, review compliance, and versioning
• Native integrations — push notifications, device permissions, biometrics, deep linking, offline-first patterns, and platform SDK integrations where required
• Context Engineering — translating Concept Engineer prototypes and briefs into a clean, scalable mobile architecture using Cursor as your primary execution tool
• API integration and backend contribution — consuming and, where needed, building or modifying the backend services your mobile surfaces depend on
• State management architecture — owning how data flows through the mobile application, not just implementing patterns handed to you
• Cross-platform consistency — ensuring iOS and Android behaviour is intentional and documented, not accidental
• Cursor .cursorrules contribution — maintaining the Island's mobile-specific coding standards and context files so the codebase stays navigable as it grows
• Refactoring and codebase stabilisation — at L3 you are expected to work safely on an existing codebase, not just greenfield. You use Cursor's codebase context to edit and optimise without breaking what already works
• Mentoring L1 and L2 engineers on the Island — reviewing their code, raising the quality bar, and making sure mobile-specific patterns are being applied correctly across the pod

The technology you will be working with

This role is being hired for a specific active engagement. The following is the technology stack in use on this project. If you have not worked with these directly, do not apply.

• React Native — cross-platform mobile, iOS and Android
• TypeScript and JavaScript (ES6+) — the entire codebase is typed
• State management — Zustand and Redux; you need to know both and have an opinion on when to use each
• API integration — RESTful APIs and GraphQL; you will be consuming both
• Push notifications — Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM) and Amazon SNS
• List rendering and UI performance — FlatList and related React Native optimisation patterns; this is not optional on a project of this scale
• Git — branching, PR reviews, and version control discipline on a team codebase
• iOS and Android platform guidelines — you understand the design and behavioural expectations of both platforms and implement accordingly

Bonus — useful but not required to apply:

• Native Android (Kotlin/Java) or iOS (Swift/Objective-C) experience
• Mobile testing frameworks — Jest, Detox, React Native Testing Library
• CI/CD pipeline experience for mobile applications
• Performance monitoring and analytics tooling

Proof-based qualifications

We do not assess candidates on years of experience or job titles. We assess on proof of capability. When you apply, be prepared to demonstrate the following:

What we look at

What you must show

2–3 shipped apps

Live applications on the App Store and/or Play Store that you built or were a primary engineer on. Provide links or app names in your application. We will look them up. If you cannot name two shipped apps, do not apply.

React Native + TypeScript

A codebase or feature set demonstrating typed React Native development — components, hooks, context API, and state management using Zustand or Redux. Not a tutorial project.

API and backend integration

A feature where your React Native work connected to a RESTful or GraphQL API — ideally one you also built or modified on the backend side. Show us the integration, not just the consumption.

Cursor-driven workflow

Walk us through how you currently use Cursor and Claude in your build process. Not a demo. A real conversation about how AI tooling has changed how you write and debug code.

A CV listing React Native and a GitHub with no shipped apps is not proof. Show us what you have built.

AI tooling at Fountane

Claude and Cursor are the primary tools for thinking, drafting, and executing work at Fountane. Every Product Engineer — including this one — is expected to use Cursor as their main development environment and Claude for context engineering, debugging, and architectural thinking.

This is not a listed skill. It is the working method. If you are not already building with Cursor and Claude integrated into your daily workflow, you will need to get there fast. The Island's velocity depends on it.

Who should not apply

• You have only built mobile apps backed entirely by third-party services (Firebase, Supabase) and have never touched application logic outside the app layer.
• You cannot name two or more applications you have shipped to the App Store or Play Store.
• You treat mobile as a skin over a web app. You have not handled platform-specific native behaviour, device APIs, or cross-platform edge cases.
• You are not using AI tooling in your current workflow and see it as optional.
• You need a clear boundary around mobile and expect the backend work to always belong to someone else.

What comes next

L3 is not a ceiling. The path to Lead PE — Mobile requires demonstrated ability to orchestrate the Island's full application architecture across mobile and backend, define the .cursorrules for the pod, manage Island velocity, and handle client technical conversations without the Lead CE in the room. Promotion is not tenure-based. It is triggered by demonstrated capability at the next level's complexity tier.
