The company has quickly grown to $4M ARR by providing APIs for real-time people and company data, and they are now looking to democratize access to this data through a new prosumer-focused layer. The Product Engineer will be responsible for designing and developing an easy-to-use interface where customers across functions can input prompts and have powerful AI agents automatically built for them, leveraging Crustdata's extensive data infrastructure and APIs.

This role involves leading the 0→1 build of a new product, owning product strategy and execution, collaborating with Sales/CS to define high-leverage workflows, and building production-quality UX.
