Full-Stack Product Engineer (Ember, Javascript, Rails)

TableCheck, Japan's leading restaurant reservation management platform, is seeking a Full-Stack Product Engineer who excels at both software development and stakeholder collaboration. As a Full-Stack Product Engineer at TableCheck, you will own the complete lifecycle of product features — from gathering requirements and designing technical architecture to implementing scalable solutions and iterating based on user feedback. You'll serve as both a technical executor and product expert, capable of managing project timelines and maintaining quality standards for critical parts of TableCheck's user experience.

We operate in an English-first remote-first environment where clear communication and thorough documentation are paramount. Fluency in other languages (especially Japanese) is welcome but definitely not required. You'll thrive here if you're passionate about solving complex problems, collaborating with users and stakeholders, and delivering scalable solutions using our tech stack: Ember.js with JavaScript on the frontend and Ruby on Rails on the backend.

What you'll do

• Design and implement scalable frontend solutions using Ember.js and JavaScript (primary focus)

• Build and maintain backend systems using Ruby on Rails as you grow into the full-stack role

• Ensure production system reliability with a focus on code quality and performance

• Collaborate with product managers, users, and stakeholders to gather requirements and guide technical implementation

• Actively participate in project planning, timeline management, and quality assurance processes to ensure smooth, high-quality releases

What we're looking for

• 5+ years of experience with Ember.js, JavaScript, and frontend development

• Some backend experience or willingness to learn Ruby on Rails as you develop in the role

• Strong ability to understand business requirements and passion for solving customer problems

• Good sense of project timelines and quality standards

• Business-level English communication skills

• Experience working in a Product Team in a production environment

• Strong communication and collaboration skills with a team-first mindset

• Moves fast, has a strong bias for impact, and seeks forgiveness, not permission

Nice to haves

• Japanese language skills

• Previous startup experience is highly desired

• Experience building products from concept to launch, including user research and feature prioritization

• Hands-on experience conducting user interviews and translating feedback into product improvements

• Experience working in the F&B industry (restaurants, hospitality, reservations)

• Experience building and maintaining B2B marketplace platforms
