# Head of Engineering - Company: [Snapmagic]() - Location: San Francisco Office - Remote: Yes - Team: Engineering - Employment type: Full Time - Salary: $200K – $250K - Posted: July 2, 2026 ## Job description SnapMagic is building the digital growth engine for the global electronics industry. Our core platform (formerly SnapEDA) already reaches 2M+ engineers annually and is the default discovery layer for electronic components. We’re now scaling SnapMagic Copilot, built on a proprietary dataset of 10M+ components, serving as the discovery and demand layer for the global electronics industry. **This is a category-defining opportunity.** We are looking for someone who is deeply obsessed with the craft of building products — someone who cares about building scalable systems, shipping with momentum, and improves through rapid feedback from real users. Since our seed round, we’ve doubled revenue with a small team operating at a very high bar. The demand is real. The market is ready. What’s missing is a product and engineering leader who can turn momentum into a repeatable shipping machine. We’re looking for someone who has personally built and shipped complex systems at a fast-growing, VC-backed company and knows what it takes to scale from early adoption to sustained, reliable usage. **This is a builder role, not a delegator role:** * You will personally build and ship production-quality software until the motion is proven * You will set the bar for speed and quality through example, system design, and execution * You will operate in tight feedback loops with users — shipping, learning, and iterating continuously * You will own outcomes, roadmaps, and metrics end to end The role has two phases: Phase 1: Build personally, define the product and execution motion Phase 2: Hire and lead a team that compounds velocity You will: * Ship code regularly and stay hands-on in core systems * Own SnapMagic Copilot, including LLM workflows, training loops, evaluation, and iteration speed * Own recommendation and relevance systems and continuously improve them through usage data * Scale a high-traffic platform and ads system under real production load * Run tight weekly execution loops focused on shipped outcomes, not activity * Partner closely with the CEO on product direction and priorities * Make pragmatic and deliberate technical tradeoffs in cases where speed and learning matter more than elegance * Communicate clearly what shipped, what was learned, and what’s next **Who we’re looking for** * You’re comfortable being in the details * You actively test ideas in production and adjust based on real user behavior * You care deeply about whether people actually use what you build * You do the unglamorous work like clockwork: debugging, triage, instrumentation, iteration, metrics * You take feedback eagerly — from users, data, and teammates — and turn it directly into execution * You hold yourself to standards higher than anyone else will * You move fast where it matters, close loops, and identify and address drag quickly * You make sound tradeoffs, prioritize well under ambiguity, and build systems that scale **What we offer** * Competitive salary and meaningful equity * Medical, dental, vision * 401(k) – non-matching * Commuter benefits * Catered lunches on in-office days * A passionate, low-ego, fast-moving team **How we work** * In office Monday, Wednesday, Friday * Remote Tuesday and Thursday If you want to build a category, own software used by millions, and operate at a genuinely high bar, we’d love to talk. ## Apply [Apply on Snapmagic]() Canonical job page:
