5+ years of hands-on software engineering experience shipping production code, ideally with Node.js/TypeScript, though we welcome strong engineers from other modern stacks who can adapt quickly
2+ years managing engineering teams (3+ ICs), with a track record of delivering projects that moved business metrics—not just shipped features
Ruthless prioritization skills: You know how to edit scope to the smallest thing that generates useful feedback, and you're comfortable killing experiments that aren't working
An outcome-oriented and highly-experimental interest in AI-driven development practices: You're actively using AI tools throughout the development lifecycle and expect your team to do the same
Comfort with ambiguity and speed: Growth work is inherently experimental—you thrive when the path isn't clear and iteration cycles are measured in days, not quarters
Background in PLG or growth engineering—experimentation platforms, conversion optimization, attribution
Experience with Stripe or similar billing/subscription systems
The base salary + variable pay for this role ranges from $196,000 - $240,000 + benefits. Compensation offered will be determined by factors such as location, level, job-related knowledge, skills, and experience. .

Responsibilities
Own growth engineering end-to-end: Lead technical decisions for paid acquisition, referrals, SEO, onboarding, and experimentation infrastructure—staying hands-on in the codebase (30-40% of your time) while guiding your team's delivery. You own production uptime and participate in on-call.
Rebuild onboarding to drive conversion: Architect and ship a new trial-to-paid experience, working closely with Product and Design to rapidly test hypotheses and iterate based on real user behavior
Scale experimentation infrastructure: Evolve our A/B testing platform to handle 10x current volume, enabling the broader org to run more tests with less engineering lift
Build and develop a high-performing team: Hire strong engineers, set clear expectations, deliver feedback in real-time, and create an environment where people do the best work of their careers
Partner across functions: Collaborate daily with Marketing on acquisition channels, Data on measurement, and Product on prioritization—no silos, no handoffs, shared outcomes
