Senior Product Engineer - (AI Engagement)

The National Society of Leadership and Success 

Imagine a community of students taking action toward their dreams and living happier lives. In this world, people are so fulfilled they reach out and positively contribute to the lives of others. That’s who we impact, and that’s what we are building. Want to be a part of it?

To determine whether you'd be a good fit, ask yourself…

• Would you like to go to work each day knowing that you are using your talents to help others and better the world?
• Are you inspired by the thought of positively impacting tens of thousands of students each year?
• Are you ready to work in an organization that is rapidly growing and embraces change?
• Would you like to work with people whom you respect and can learn from every day?
• Do you desire to work for an organization that cares about your growth, where your own drive and interests help you create your own future?

Our guiding question is: “Are we helping the greatest number of people in the greatest possible way?" Are you inspired? Let’s change the world together.

• Leverage analytics (PostHog or similar) to identify friction points and inform product iteration.
• Collaborate with AI engineers to embed LLM-driven experiences into the platform.
• Partner with cross-functional teams to prioritize and ship improvements that drive user engagement.
• Establish and share best practices for turning features into habit-forming experiences.

• 5+ years of engineering experience, ideally full stack.
• Proficiency with React/Next.js, TypeScript, APIs, and system architecture.
• Experience with A/B testing, experimentation frameworks, and behavioral analytics.
• Strong background in integrating third-party communication/marketing tools (e.g., Braze, Customer.io, Twilio).
