Product Engineer & Architect

COMPANY: BriefLogic
BriefLogic provides consulting, coaching, standards, software and analytics for corporate marketing organizations. Our focus is on Input Economics; improving the directions that marketers provide to their agency partners to ensure a better outcome. We have defined best practices and have created custom brief templates for over 50 distinct assignment types. Our customer list includes Intel, Microsoft, Verizon, Dell, and Whirlpool, among many others.

Currently, our templates and workflow is delivered via MS Word Documents, distributed via Intranets and file stores. We are looking to build our software platform to embed the features, functionality, and analytic back-end to deliver increased functionality to our clients.

TEAM: PRODUCT, UX and ENGINEERING
We are looking to start building our engineering team so there currently is not a tech stack in place. That said, there is a strong preference for building on Firebase using Quasar (or React) for web / mobile, Node.js back end, Firebase Cloudstore (or Realtime), and other tools / services as needed. We will use kanban & scrum for workflow ---------- itially, the focus of our team is to build a functioning MVP version of the BriefLogic platform to spec for an initial group of customers. We are currently bootstrapped but cash-flow positive and have a long track record of delivering results for clients through consulting and change management. The BriefLogic platform will enable us to drive meaningful and lasting impact for our customers and provide increased visibility and efficiency to their marketing organizations.
