Proof of work

The team

The Growth Engineering team builds the experiences that connect people to our ecosystem for the first time — and keeps them coming back. We design and ship the systems behind our marketing funnels, signup and KYC flows, and the key engagement features that help new users fund their accounts and explore our products. It’s a team with direct influence on company growth, global reach, and user engagement at scale. Our products serve millions of users globally.

How We Work

  • We give engineers ownership and trust them to ship high-impact work with craftsmanship and accountability.

  • We move quickly, experiment often, and learn fast from data and feedback.

  • We work asynchronously across time zones, supporting each other with open communication and shared goals.

Why This Role Matters

You’ll help define the foundation on which Growth Engineering — and the company — build. Your tools and systems will accelerate development across multiple teams, ensuring reliability and scalability for products that serve millions globally. If you’re passionate about creating elegant, powerful developer experiences and using engineering craft to drive real business impact, you’ll thrive here.

The opportunity

As a Senior Software Engineer within the Growth Platform team, you’ll design and maintain the internal tooling, services, and developer platforms that empower teams across Growth — and beyond — to move faster and ship more reliably. You’ll build SDKs, CLIs, APIs, and backend systems that make it easy for engineers to integrate growth features and infrastructure safely, consistently, and at scale. This role is for engineers who see developer experience, reliability, and scalability as multipliers for business impact.
