Growth Engineering Manager

Role Overview

• You’ll be working closely with Product and Marketing to shape, build, and learn from growth initiatives that drive acquisition, conversion, and retention.
• Build and ship growth features end-to-end as a hands-on contributor (roughly 50% of the role), primarily using React and TypeScript, alongside the team.
• Line-manage a small group of Growth Engineers, supporting delivery, coaching, and ongoing development through regular feedback and clear expectations.
• Lead the technical execution of growth initiatives: shaping experiments, scoping work, sequencing delivery, and keeping the team aligned on outcomes.
• Partner closely with Product, Marketing, and Design to turn growth hypotheses into shippable experiments and learn quickly from results.
• Set and uphold standards for code quality, experimentation, analytics, and maintainability across the growth codebase.
• Act as the connective tissue for the team: removing blockers, resolving trade-offs, and ensuring knowledge, ownership, and context are shared rather than siloed.

Requirements

• Hands-on engineering background, with experience line-managing engineers or a strong desire to move into a player-coach role.
• Strong technical judgement across a modern web stack, with the ability to contribute production code, review critically, and guide technical trade-offs.
• Comfort translating ambiguous growth problems into focused execution, aligning engineers and non-technical partners around clear outcomes.
• Proven ability to support and develop engineers, through regular 1:1s, feedback, coaching, and setting clear expectations.
• Product and impact-minded, with a desire to influence what gets built — not just how — while encouraging the same mindset in others.
• Calm, empathetic, and direct communicator, able to build trust across engineering, product, marketing, and design.
• (Optional) Experience leading growth-oriented work, including experimentation, measurement, and AB testing is a bonus.
