About the role

👋 Hey! We're Conveo.ai

Conveo is a YC-backed company in an active growth period. We started this year as a team of ~20 and are on track to reach ~120 by year end. The people who join now have an outsized chance to shape how this company is built.

The engineering team is small and deliberately so. There are no product managers, no designer handoffs, no tickets waiting for someone else to prioritise. Engineers own the full distance from customer problem to working software, and that proximity to the product is exactly what makes this role interesting. You'll report directly to Maarten, our CTO.

We care deeply about what we build and we genuinely enjoy building it together. ☺️

🤌 What we're building and why

Conveo is the AI research platform enabling fast, affordable, and high quality consumer / B2B research. Global brands like Unilever, Google, and Orange use our AI video interviewer to generate insights across marketing and product teams.

Traditional research is slow, expensive, and superficial. Running it well requires expertise most teams don't have. That gap affects how well companies understand their customers and how well they can serve them. We're closing it.

👀 What you'll do

We need a Senior Product Engineer who works backwards from the experience. This is someone who starts with the user's problem, not a spec, and owns everything between that conversation and the code that ships. You shape what gets built, actively contributing to product direction, influencing what we build and how we build it, with real technical and strategic impact.

Own the full stack, from the interface to the infrastructure

Build the interface customers open every day and can't imagine working without. React is the core of what customers see and touch — you lead frontend architecture in React and TypeScript, set the quality bar for components, state management, and performance. And you don't stop there. From API design to cloud infrastructure (AWS), you ship complete, polished features end to end, including AI-powered ones built on LLM APIs, prompt engineering, and async pipelines.

Be the engineering voice in every customer conversation

When a customer has a need, an engineer hears it, interprets it, and solves it. You join customer calls (about once a week), form a clear point of view on what to build, translate feedback into scoped product decisions, and follow through.

Use AI throughout

You reach for agentic solutions first. You use AI to reason, build, review, and test at every stage and you help raise the bar for how the whole team works. Documentation overhead doesn't slow us down here — AI handles that layer, and you're someone who is happy to work that way. You stay current on what frontier models can do and bring that into what we ship.

🔎 What you'll bring

  • 6+ years of experience building full-stack applications with TypeScript and Node.js.

  • Strong backend experience: designing APIs, working with PostgreSQL, and managing background jobs and async workflows.

  • Solid frontend skills with React. .

  • Experience with cloud infrastructure (AWS and/or GCP) — you're comfortable with services like S3, media pipelines, and deployment tooling.

  • Experience building AI-driven applications (e.g. prompt engineering, working with LLM APIs, and/or fine-tuning experience are a plus).

  • Can independently lead projects from concept to launch.

  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills in English with a keen eye for detail.

  • A collaborative mindset, able to work autonomously in a small, fast-paced team.

🦄 Bonus

  • Experience with React Router v7 or Remix.

  • Experience at a small, fast-moving SaaS company where you’ve been client-facing

  • Exposure to market research or qualitative research tooling.

  • You've shipped agentic AI systems to production and can speak to failure modes, evaluations, and tool design.

⭐️ Why join us?

  • Ship alongside engineers who've built and scaled products used by millions.

  • Work directly with frontier AI models and push what they can actually do.

  • Competitive salary and meaningful equity. We want you to own a real piece of what we're building.

  • Offices in London, Antwerp, and New York. We work best together, so we ask for 3 days a week in the NYC office.

  • Regular socials: rooftop drinks, team dinners, run clubs, and more.

  • Twice-yearly off-sites to places worth travelling to. Austria, Las Vegas, and Portugal. 🥳

  • Private health coverage (health, dental, vision)

  • 401(k) with 4% company match

  • Enhanced employer pension contribution.

  • 20 days vacation + US federal holidays

  • Refer someone great and earn up to $5,000.

About Conveo

Our story so far:

Founded in 2024 as a better way to conduct qualitative interviews, Conveo quickly gained traction after going through the Summer 24 Y Combinator batch where we saw significant interest from Consumer Goods companies. After raising our $5.3m seed round, we executed closely with our customers to build the best qualitative market research platform centered around AI-moderated interviews. Since then we’ve expanded our scope, grown our team, and Today, we're seeing incredibly strong adoption and usage across Insights, marketing, innovation, and strategy teams in industries like: Consumer goods, Retail, Pharma, technology, and consumer services.

Background

  • We help companies understand their customers, giving us virtually unlimited market potential. The market research industry is valued at approximately $100B, with qualitative solutions representing a $30B opportunity. With AI enablement, this market is expanding rapidly. This is an infinite horizon problem.
  • Experienced team. Our head of research was the founder of a market research company with 600+ employees, our CEO previously co-founded a $75m ARR startup as CTO. Our commercial and operational teams bring their operational excellence from McKinsey, while our sales leadership includes former VPs from Ipsos.
  • We believe in forging deep collaborations with our customers. In just 15 months, we've landed deals with some of the world's largest companies that are quickly expanding their work with us, including Unilever, P&G, AB InBev, Nestlé, Google and many others. We are seeing many brands switch to us from our competitors. We’re a growing team passionate about solving real-world challenges in customer research, enabling companies to make user-informed decisions. We're looking for driven senior engineers who love working on complex systems, care about solving problems for users, and are excited to shape the future of AI-driven customer insights.
