Product Engineer, New Verticals

Bounce is seeking a Product Engineer for New Verticals to join our Lisbon office. This role will play a pivotal part in crafting new products that expand what Bounce can do for travelers — beyond luggage storage — and bring us closer to our vision: a world where people can live life light, without thinking about their stuff. As a Product Engineer, you will take ownership of real customer problems and turn them into simple, delightful experiences across both backend and frontend. You’ll work on early-stage product surfaces, experimentation, and new flows that make traveling (and moving through cities) feel effortless. We’re looking for a generalist who thrives in ambiguity, loves shipping, and enjoys owning a feature from concept to production — collaborating closely with Product, Design, and teams across the company.

Build and iterate on new product experiences across mobile and web, from idea → prototype → production; Own customer-facing flows end-to-end: onboarding, booking, post-booking, and “make it feel magical” moments; Collaborate with global teams to explore and validate new ventures, turning learnings into product direction quickly; Write high-quality, maintainable code — and improve existing architecture as new verticals push the platform forward; Contribute across the stack using Elixir, React Native/Expo, React, NextJS, and Typescript (and introduce new tools when beneficial); Help shape how we build: fast cycles, high ownership, pragmatic experimentation, and strong craft
