Senior Product Engineer

Your role

As a Senior Product Engineer, you will own significant adviser-facing product areas across web and mobile, from an ambiguous problem through to what ships.

You will work closely with advisers, domain experts, designers and product leaders to understand the problem, determine the right product approach and build the solution.

You will not wait for every decision to be translated into a detailed specification. You will use customer evidence, product data and technical judgement to make trade-offs and move work forward.

You will also contribute to the frontend architecture and shared foundations that allow Saturn’s client-facing products to remain coherent as the company scales.

Your work will help determine whether Saturn becomes a collection of capable tools or a coherent product advisers rely on to run their working day.

What we’re looking for

• 4+ years building and shipping customer-facing software in production
• Experience owning a substantial product area from an ambiguous problem through to adoption and iteration
• Strong frontend engineering depth in TypeScript and modern web frameworks
• Strong full-stack capability, with the judgement to work across the system where needed
• Experience contributing to frontend architecture and shared engineering foundations
• A record of making product decisions without relying on complete specifications
• Strong product judgement and the ability to explain trade-offs clearly
• Experience working closely with design while maintaining technical ownership
• Evidence of improving performance, accessibility and interaction quality in production products
• Experience building reliable interfaces around complex data, workflows or permissions
• Experience investigating production issues and translating findings into product improvements
• A record of scoping and delivering work measured in months from a business or customer objective
• Strong written communication, with the ability to document product and technical reasoning
• Experience improving standards across code review, testing, release and client-facing quality
• Comfort owning decisions with incomplete information and real deadlines
• Experience mentoring engineers and improving the quality of a team
• Experience working at startup pace without sacrificing judgement or craft

Preferred experience

• Building software for financial services, healthcare, legal or another regulated domain
• Financial advice, wealth management or investment products
• Building AI-native products or interfaces around probabilistic systems
• Designing human review, approval or exception-handling workflows
• Mobile product development
• Complex forms, document workflows or data-heavy applications
• Design systems and frontend platform architecture
• Building enterprise products with sophisticated permissions and firm-specific configuration
• Accessibility standards and performance optimisation
• Taking a product from early adoption to broad production use

What success looks like

Success in this role means:

• advisers can complete more of their working day inside Saturn
• complex workflows become simpler without losing regulatory control
• product decisions are grounded in evidence and clear reasoning
• client-facing engineering moves quickly without accumulating avoidable inconsistency
• the web and mobile experience feels coherent across products
• performance, accessibility and interaction quality improve as the product scales
• production issues are understood quickly and influence what gets built next
• engineers increasingly build on shared foundations rather than fragmented product patterns
• advisers trust Saturn with increasingly important parts of their work
• the product becomes harder to replace because it is deeply integrated into how firms operate
• Saturn develops a strong product engineering culture with a high bar for craft, ownership and judgement
