The role
Kit recently formed a dedicated Product Growth team, and we need a Senior Software Engineer II to build the in-product experiences that connect creator needs to realized value, increasing the number of creators who succeed through the product while driving Kit's growth. We're looking for a Senior Software Engineer II to own the technical execution of high-leverage improvements across the full funnel: acquisition, activation, retention, and monetization.
This is a full-time IC role best suited for someone who loves being close to the business, cares about measuring and iterating on what they ship, and combines technical knowledge with leadership and extreme ownership.
Your support system
You'll report to Megan Mullin and collaborate closely with two engineers, our Senior Product Manager, product designers, and a data analyst. You'll also work cross-functionally with engineers across Kit's product squads, tapping into shared infrastructure and contributing back to the broader engineering community.
What you'll do
- Dig into data and current growth opportunities to understand creator drop-off points.
- Own the end-to-end execution of multiple growth initiatives across the funnel, from scoping and building to measuring outcomes.
- Establish technical patterns and measurement practices that the growth team relies on.
- Coach others toward analytical, outcome-driven ways of working.
Skills
- Full-stack engineering: Our stack is primarily Ruby on Rails and React.
- Product judgment: You think about the experience, not just the implementation.
- Data-informed decision-making: You are comfortable in SQL and analytics tooling like Omni and Mixpanel.
- Funnel thinking: You understand acquisition, activation, retention, and monetization as a system.
- Building reusable infrastructure: You consider whether your work can accelerate future projects.
- Comfort with legacy systems: You are capable of navigating complex billing domains and context-switching between fast experimentation and deliberate technical work.
