## Job description

💙 ABOUT BOUNCE

At Bounce we’re on a mission to make people’s journeys lighter, because we believe nobody should have to plan their day around their stuff.

We started with the largest luggage storage network on the planet: 35,000+ local businesses across 100+ countries, where travelers drop their bags and get on with their day. Now we’re going further, with luggage delivery and our own 24/7 lockers. Our goal is for “bounce it” to be the first thing people say when they arrive in a new city.

We’re a small, nimble team across Lisbon, San Francisco, and Tokyo. We move fast, test ideas early, and change course when the data tells us to. If you want to make travel lighter for everyone, come build it with us.

We were named the fastest-growing travel company in the US on the 2024 Inc 5000, and we’re backed by leading Silicon Valley investors, including a16z, General Catalyst, and 359 Capital.

### ABOUT THE ROLE

You’ll join our New Verticals pod as a Product Engineer. New Verticals is Bounce's 0→1 team taking Bounce beyond luggage storage. You'll build the products that expand what we can do for travelers and bring us closer to our vision: a world where people can live light, without thinking about their stuff.

### THE MISSION

As a Product Engineer in New Verticals, you’ll own real customer problems and turn them into experiences people love. You'll work on early-stage products, experiments, and new flows, including our luggage delivery offering, that make traveling and getting around feel effortless.

We're looking for a full-stack generalist who's comfortable with ambiguity, loves shipping, and likes owning a feature from idea to production. You'll work closely with Product, Design, and teams across Bounce.

### HOW PRODUCT GETS BUILT AT BOUNCE

We build for our customers and partners first. Technology is how we get there, not the goal.

We work in 1-week cycles, and most projects fit into one or two of them. Each project has one owner, but the whole team pitches in. You'll always need input along the way, and we expect you to ask for it.

This role is for you if you enjoy every part of building software, not just writing code. As a small team, we rely on people who can take a feature from idea to production. You won't be handed a queue of tickets. You'll help shape what we build and why.

Our stack is Elixir, React Native/Expo, React, Next.js, and TypeScript, and AI is part of how we build every day.

### WHERE YOU COME IN

- Build and improve new product experiences across mobile and web, from idea → prototype → production.

- Own customer-facing flows end to end, from onboarding and booking to post-booking and the small moments that make Bounce feel magical.

- Work with teams around the world to explore and test new ventures, and turn what you learn into product decisions fast.

- Write clean, maintainable code, and improve our architecture as new verticals push the platform further.

- Work across the stack with Elixir, React Native/Expo, React, Next.js, and TypeScript, and bring in new tools when they help.

- Help shape how we build: fast cycles, high ownership, practical experiments, and real care for craft.

### YOUR PROFILE

- You've built and shipped products people actually use, ideally from 0→1, across backend and frontend.

- You're strong in TypeScript/JavaScript, Elixir, or Ruby, and happy to pick up the rest.

- You've built with React or React Native, and you notice when a screen feels off.

- You use AI tools to build faster, and you know when to trust them.

- You care about the problem as much as the code, and you're happy to challenge what we build and why.

- You think like a product owner: you start with the user, measure what you ship, and learn.

### INTERVIEW PROCESS

1. Intro call with our Talent team to get to know you and share more about Bounce

2. Hiring manager interview with an Engineering Manager

3. Technical challenge to deliver in a panel interview

4. Product sense interview

5. Career deep dive to explore how your career shaped you

6. CEO chat about culture and how you like to work

### BENEFITS AND COMPENSATION

### Compensation

- Competitive salary paid over 12 months.

- Stock options vesting over 4 years with a 1-year cliff.

- Flexibility to shape your package: prioritize salary or opt for more stock options

### Benefits

- Private health insurance

- Unlimited vacation

- Meal allowance through Coverflex

- Commute allowance

- Gym membership

- Catered lunches twice a week, plus snacks and drinks in the office

- Team trips twice a year & regular global get togethers

### LOCATION AND WORK SETUP

- You'll be based in our Lisbon office https://maps.app.goo.gl/v77ACtryEC26f4Zh9.

- Flexible hybrid working with ‘work-from-anywhere’ weeks

### OUR CORE VALUES

- Velocity is priority #1. The faster we ship, the faster we learn. One day sooner compounds.

- Be experiment-driven. Small hypotheses, small scopes, fast learning.

- Freedom with responsibility. You have the freedom to act, and we trust you to do what's best for Bounce.

- Own the outcome. Commit to the outcome, not the task.

- Think at scale. A small improvement shipped globally can beat a big one in a single city.

- Be scrappy. There are no experts, it's just us. If something needs doing, we figure it out.

- Strive for feedback. Care personally, challenge directly, and make feedback a habit.

- Relationships matter. We genuinely care about the people we work with. We build community, not just collaborate.

### LEARN HOW WE THINK AND WORK

We remove it as soon as it disappears at source.
