A Product Engineer takes a business or user problem, decides what to build, builds it and iterates until it solves the problem in production. We help you hire one: AI sources and scores profiles, a senior engineer validates every finalist, and the first candidate usually arrives within 1–2 weeks. You pay only if you hire.
Tell us which Product Engineer you needIn the stack, a little: job ads ask for React, TypeScript and Python, and almost never for Java, Angular or .NET. The difference is where the job ends. At software companies, a Product Engineer ad asks for product sense in 47% of cases, against 12% for full-stack. Experiments or A/B tests: 43% against 11%. Talking to users: 40% against 9%.
A different kind of company hires it, too. Consultancies post 17% of Product Engineer ads and 55% of full-stack ads. That is 106 Product Engineer ads and 1,225 full-stack ads posted on LinkedIn for Spain between 27 July and 22 October 2026. The data is in Product Engineer vs full-stack (in Spanish).
In Spain the title also names an industrial trade (automotive, mechanical parts, defence). This page is about the software one. We explain it in what a Product Engineer is (in Spanish).
The median salary posted in Product Engineer ads is about €64,500 gross a year. The middle half runs from €45,000 to €75,000, and senior and staff ads go above €100,000. Few ads carry a salary: read these as orders of magnitude.
Who hires moves the salary most. At a startup, a Product Engineer ad posts about €72,000 and a full-stack ad about €66,000. Outside startups, full-stack stays at about €38,500. Changing the title does not make the role more expensive: if you are a startup, budget like a startup. The data is in Product Engineer vs full-stack (in Spanish).
In our searches with startups, the band midpoint for a Product Engineer is €65,000, and bands reach €120,000. We published it in the Spanish tech job market report for July to September.
Few people carry it, and almost none are looking. In a sample of 82,606 tech profiles in Spain, 410 carry the Product Engineer title today. For each of them, about four do that work under another title. Only 2.9% of those with the title show up as open to work, against 10.7% of full-stack engineers.
Almost nobody reaches this job from this job. One in three has been a founder, and most come from generic software roles, frontend and full-stack. The median experience is 11.7 years. So we search by what they have built, not by what they are called, and we write to them even when they are not looking. The data is in who the Product Engineer is in Spain (in Spanish).
A senior engineer validates every finalist against the work they will do at your company, not against a list of technologies. We check the stack, but it is not what makes a Product Engineer.
We validate product judgement and AI experience separately: having built with language models does not prove someone thinks in product.
We start with the brief: stack, seniority, team context and what has to happen for the hire to work. Our AI agents search LinkedIn, GitHub, the open web, proprietary databases, our network and tech communities at once, and score every profile against that brief.
Then a senior engineer validates each finalist by hand: technical skill, real level for the role, how they work with AI and fit with your team. AI proposes and a person decides. You get 1–3 finalists ready to interview, not 30 CVs.
The first validated candidate usually arrives within 1–2 weeks. Pace depends on the role and the brief, but you do not wait a month to see the first profile.
We charge 15–20% of first-year gross salary, on signing, and only if you hire. No retainer and no upfront fees. Every hire comes with a 3-month guarantee.
