Hi I'm Anca, Head of Developer Support.
We're a high-growth HR tech company building and selling software that helps in-house recruitment teams attract, hire, and onboard the right talent. Today, we have a strong foundation in place, with a mature product, rapid growth, strong product market fit, and happy customers.
We're scaling fast: more customers, more integrations, and more people using Pinpoint in complex ways every day. Because customers run their entire hiring process on Pinpoint, reliability isn't a nice to have; it's core to our offering. So we're growing our Developer Support team with a Product Reliability Engineer to stay ahead of it, one of the most interesting engineering seats in the company.
This is not a feature squad role, and it's not a stepping stone to one. Developer Support is an enablement function: we fix things, investigate, monitor, and build tooling, all to make other teams (Customer Support, our new Technical Success team, and the product squads) more effective. If "enablement" is the kind of work that excites you, keep reading.
The fine print (but way more exciting):
- This is a remote role (UK, Portugal, Spain, or Poland) with occasional in-person team meetups.
- We are an AI-first team. We reach for AI (Claude Code, MCP servers, and similar) for almost everything: writing code, exploring ideas, getting to the bottom of the codebase, and removing manual toil. This isn't a nice-to-have here; it's how we work
- Our stack is pragmatic and maintainable: Ruby on Rails (6.x), React with TypeScript, PostgreSQL, Sidekiq, and CI/CD via CircleCI (moving to GitHub Actions).
- Pinpoint is still very much in startup mode. Priorities shift, not everything is perfectly defined, and we expect people to operate well in that environment.
- Our product is a configurable, platform-style ATS serving multiple personas: recruiters, hiring managers, and operations teams across a wide range of complex workflows
- Curious about how we think and build? Our engineers write about it here.
- Our values actually matter here. We hire people who reflect them in how they work, collaborate, and make decisions.
-
Own the full lifecycle of issues: triage, diagnose, fix, and prevent high impact problems across the product. Roughly half your time is reactive (the escalation queue), half is proactive (stopping the next ticket before it's raised).
- Build internal tooling that makes other teams self sufficient, especially our Technical Success team (part of R&D, there to resolve technical complexity on behalf of every customer facing team). The goal: they get what they need without waiting on engineering. Bulk operations, config changes, diagnostics, automation of anything manual and painful.
- Build the feedback mechanism back to the product squads. You'll proactively and visibly feed what you're seeing (product pain, recurring issues, what users are actually reporting) back to roadmap teams and PMs, so it's reliably ingested and the same problems stop coming back.
- Make the application meaningfully faster: instrumentation, logging, monitoring, and hands on performance work. (This matters even more right now as we scale our infrastructure function.)
- Dent the backlog: fix root causes, not symptoms, and remove repeat issues so net throughput keeps improving cycle over cycle.
- Reach for AI to make all of the above faster and better: embedding AI into the triage and feedback loop, automating toil, and unlocking the context buried in 8 years of codebase and docs.
- Work a light weekday escalation rotation, and ship to production independently within your first year.
- The scope of this team is growing fast: as the tooling gets easier to build, what we can take on keeps expanding. There's a lot of room here for someone who wants it.
-
3+ years building production web applications full stack, including hands-on Ruby on Rails and React with TypeScript.
- You've owned production issues end to end before (finding, fixing, and preventing recurrence), ideally in a developer support, reliability, internal tooling, or enablement capacity.
- AI-native. You reach for Claude Code (or similar) not just to write code but to explore ideas, understand unfamiliar codebases, and embed AI into nearly everything you do.
- High agency and ownership: first-principles thinking, deep resourcefulness, a strong bias for action.
- An exceptional communicator who defaults to keeping people in the loop: progress updates, what you've found, where you're stuck. People rarely have to chase you.
- Hungry for growth: you don't need a defined progression ladder; you show it by solving hard problems, taking work off your manager's plate, and growing fast.
- Motivated by making teams more effective, not just by shipping your own features.
- Startup or scale-up B2B SaaS background, ideally a similar stage and size.

We’re changing the way companies hire, and rewriting the rules of recruitment.
We’re a high-growth HR tech company building software that makes hiring faster, fairer, and more human, fixing the broken processes that make it hard for great candidates and great companies to find each other.
Founded in 2018, we bootstrapped our way to 500+ customers and £5M ARR before raising private equity funding in 2023 to support our next stage of growth. Today, we’re a 90-person team across the U.K. and U.S., serving more than 1,000 organizations worldwide. We scale deliberately, with sensible unit economics and no layoffs, because we’re building for the long term—not the next funding round.
Our product is deep and configurable enough to support complex hiring workflows, yet simple enough for teams to love using every day. That balance is what makes Pinpoint different. We back it up with genuine care, including fast (under 90 seconds) support from real people who know the product.
Our culture is built on genuine transparency and values we actually use to make decisions. Even as we’ve moved past early-startup noise, everyone here still shapes how we operate—taking ownership, staying curious, and solving problems proactively. As we scale, we balance structure with flexibility while holding ourselves to a high bar for respect and kindness.
If you’re excited by meaningful problems, high ownership, and working with smart, kind teammates, we’d love to hear from you.
