Product, Engineering & Tech Talent Pool

Job description

ABOUT THE GENERALIST COMPANY We're making it radically easier for founders to find the talent they actually need, and for operators to do their most impactful and meaningful work. We exist because founders waste time, effort and money on mis-scoped roles, mismatched skill sets, and slow recruiting - while brilliant generalists and operators struggle to find work that values their range and impact. We fix that. We connect high-context talent with high-growth opportunities: freelance, fractional, contract, or full-time. Whether it’s a launch, a turnaround, or a first hire, we bring in the right people at the right moment. It’s faster, sharper, and built on trust. AT A GLANCE - Location: Remote (global opportunities) - Compensation: You set your rate - freelance/contract, fractional, or full-time - Contract Type: Flexible - project-based, deployments, part-time, full-time - Start Date: Ongoing - join the pool, we’ll match you when the fit is right ABOUT OUR OPPORTUNITIES We work with early-stage startups and scaling tech companies that need technical minds that can think like product owners and build like engineers. This is for builders who want to be where it matters - not on the sidelines. Whether you’re turning zero-to-one ideas into shipping MVPs, levelling up product systems, or stabilising messy technical debt, the work is fast-moving and high-impact. You might embed for a product launch, act as an interim tech lead, or join a long-term rebuild. These teams need people who can think in systems and build with speed - whether it’s product, design, engineering, or data. THE KINDS OF DISCIPLINES AND ROLES WE MATCH FOR You don’t need to fit neatly into a box - but here's an idea of what we're talking about: - Product Management → Product Manager, Group PM, CPO - UX/UI Design → UX Designer, UI Designer, Product Designer - Engineering → Frontend, Backend, Full-Stack Engineer, AI Engineer (Product-side or infra-focused) - Data Science / ML / AI → ML Engineer, Data Scientist, AI Engineer (Model development, LLMs, embeddings) - QA & DevOps → QA Lead, DevOps Engineer, Infrastructure Engineer You might go deep on one discipline or span multiple. That’s the beauty of this pool. WHO YOU ARE You’ve built before - and you know how to work across teams, users, and use cases. You ship and shape outcomes. Some traits we often see in great-fit operators: - You’re user-obsessed - you ask why, not just what - You’re systems-minded - you design for scale and change - You’re hands-on - you're not afraid to prototype, refactor, or jump into details - You’re product-aware - you think in roadmaps and experiences, not just features - You’re collaborative - you play well with design, product, ops, and leadership - You’re curious - always learning, iterating, and improving your craft THIS MIGHT NOT BE FOR YOU IF… - You prefer highly structured corporate environments - You need a team around you to make decisions - You want to specialise in one narrow function only - You’re not comfortable with ambiguity or autonomy - You find it difficult to context switch and adapt to fast-paced changes - Volatility scares you more than opportunity excites you WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT Joining means you're on our radar for exciting roles that match your zone of expertise. Here’s how it works: - Step 1: You’ll apply - Step 2: You’ll connect with us — we’ll explore your experience, craft, and fit - Step 3: When a client brief fits your craft and expertise, we’ll get in touch and introduce you to the client and you can explore the opportunity with them directly - Step 4: If it's a fit, we'll onboard you and continue to support throughout You won’t hear from us every week. But when you do, it’ll be for something relevant and real. WE’RE BUILDING A DIVERSE NETWORK We actively welcome applications from people of all backgrounds, lived experiences, and perspectives. No matter your gender, race, age, neurodiversity, or path into this industry, you’re welcome here. If you’ve got the skills and mindset, we want to hear from you. READY TO JOIN?
