Department

Engineering

Note: Partly is headquartered in London, with a Product and Engineering base in Christchurch (NZ), and an early presence in San Francisco. We have an office-first culture, so this role would be primarily based at our Fora Central Street HQ in Clerkenwell.

🚀 Our story

Partly's mission is to connect the world's parts and we're doing that by building the first global platform for replacement parts, starting with auto parts. Our big vision is to accelerate the world towards a sustainable future where waste is eliminated and all replacement parts are universally searchable, accessible and available to all.

Founded by ex-Rocket Lab engineers, we utilise bleeding-edge technology to solve challenging but exciting problems that make a huge impact in a $1.9 trillion industry. We've more than tripled our team over the last 12 months and expect to double in size again over the coming 12 months. We're a global team spanning both Europe and Australasia.

We provide a scalable digital infrastructure solution to some of the world's largest businesses and the most exciting startups. Partly's solutions are integrated across hundreds of companies globally, providing the backbone for cataloguing and managing parts online.

Our investors in Blackbird Ventures (Canva, CultureAmp etc.), Square Peg, Octopus Ventures, Hillfarrance, Icehouse, Peter Beck (Rocket Lab), Akshay Kothari (Notion Co-Founder) and Dylan Field (Figma Co-Founder).

We're continuing to build a world-class team and ensuring Partly is a place where people can do the best work of their lives. We're proud of the culture we've built at Partly, and our values are lived throughout every experience.

🖍️ This role

We’re looking for a Product Engineer who can bridge the gap between product thinking and hands-on engineering. This role is perfect for someone who thinks like a customer, deeply understands their workflows, and can then translate that into dashboards, reports, and insights that provide real business value.

You’ll own the end-to-end process: speaking with customers, defining what matters, building dashboards, and iterating quickly to deliver tools people love and are willing to pay for.

💻 What will you do

  • Engage with customers directly — observe, interview, and learn how they use reports and dashboards.

  • Define clear, well-scoped reporting needs, including the business actions and insights each report should enable.

  • Build and ship high-quality dashboards/reports that solve real customer problems.

  • Write product details: descriptions, use cases, business actions, and case studies.

  • Estimate pricing/value for reports (e.g. $99/month for X report) and feed into go-to-market.

  • Ensure internal consistency with automated sanity checks and monitoring (e.g. detect sync issues within 10 minutes).

  • Collaborate cross-functionally to embed free reports in the product experience (e.g. MFE).

🥷 Your skills

  • A degree in Computer Science or related field (or equivalent experience).

  • A product mindset — you think deeply about customer needs, value, and usability.

  • Hands-on technical skills to design, build, and iterate on dashboards/reports (engineering + analytics blend).

  • Ability to communicate clearly in both technical and business terms.

  • A bias towards action — you’re comfortable figuring things out, talking to customers, and delivering results quickly.

  • Experience with data pipelines, BI tools, or analytics platforms is a plus.

Please note: if you don't have all the skills/experience listed above but believe you could be outstanding in this role, please still consider applying. Many folks, especially those from underrepresented or marginalised groups, often count themselves out. Please allow us to learn more about you and why you're exceptional!

🪅 Benefits

  • High trust, low process and no bureaucracy. We hire exceptional people whose judgment we trust. This means we proactively remove any process or rules that slow us down (for example, our expense policy is simply the “red face test”).

  • Competitive base salary + equity. We offer competitive salaries and generous equity options for all full-time employees, ensuring everyone shares in the financial upside when we win.

  • Flexible working hours. Choose when to work based on what time you’re most effective (no mandatory or set hours). We combine flexibility with an office-first approach (in cities where we have critical mass, i.e. London, Christchurch, Auckland). ****

  • Focus Days. Two days per week, with zero meetings, dedicated solely to uninterrupted deep work

  • Take time when you need it. We don’t ask questions or care if people have a negative leave balance. We work extremely hard and trust our team to take the time they need to recharge.

  • Learn from the best. Whether it’s during a ‘Lunch n Learn’ or hearing from a unicorn CEO at a Fireside chat, you’ll have the opportunity to constantly learn from the world’s best.

  • Quarterly season openers across the UK and EU. Connect regularly at the nearest centralised location for a week of collaboration, big-picture planning and team events.

  • Annual global offsite in New Zealand. Travel with the rest of the UK and EU team as we gather and connect for 1-2 weeks at our product and engineering hub in Christchurch.

  • Team connection. Monthly team lunches, celebrating our wins, happy hours and more!

  • Parental leave and flexible return to work. Do what works for you. Primary carers can return with 4-day weeks (on 100% pay for the first 12 weeks). Secondary carers get 10 days full pay.

  • Payroll Giving: We encourage generous giving and donate to the high-impact charities you support
