Software Engineer (Frontend), Growth Engineering

The Opportunity
We are investing in a Growth Engineering team at Postman to help developers and teams onboard to a powerful product experience that starts with single-player developers, and grows into teams that collaborate on the artifact of the APIs like how teams collaborate with the artifact of a design file using Figma. We are building this team for a number of reasons, notably: Optimize sign-up and onboarding experience for both individuals and teams Help users uncover the power of Postman (it’s so much more than “just” an API client), gradually and at the right moment Guide users to key activation moments (like creating their first collection, or inviting a member to their team) that lead to expansion and a stickier product experience In effect: we know we have a product experience and funnel that works quite well. Now we want to optimize, tune, and make it even more amazing (and measure even more). We’re looking for an experienced engineer who has worked on projects that generated measurable business impact. You’ll work closely with Postman’s engineering leadership and our product and design teams to achieve our mission of connecting 100M developers in the world. We specifically hope this person is you, because while the team is small right now, we want an eager, curious engineer who cares about building experiences that delight, convert, and measurably impact the business and work with a team of like-minded individuals who care deeply, too. What you’ll do
To achieve our goals, we’ll need a talented, experienced, and thoughtful engineer with a special interest and aptitude for growth. We are looking for someone who cares deeply about the details and spends time building user interfaces that delight users. We need an engineer who can be somewhat self-directed and who has great taste, judgment, and can iterate (and ship!) quickly to achieve the iterative improvements to our first-time user experience. To quote Frank Slootman (former Snowflake CEO): “Strategy is overrated and execution is severely underrated. Mostly all companies plan well and mostly all companies fail at execution. Make execution the king in your company.” Execution is key on the Growth Engineering team. We’ll need someone who relentlessly leads by example on execution and ships measurably impactful changes regularly to the user experience of Postman. You should expect to: Own and deliver.
Deliver improvements to the core product experience that help us achieve our goals around onboarding and activation. Deliver little big changes.
Deliver small, measured changes that meaningfully impact end users and successful activation of these users. Experiment and identify winners.
Leverage and improve our foundation of experimentation to ship A/B tested changes that impact our goals. Own end-to-end workflows.
Understand and drive measurable improvements to user experience particularly focused on first-time user experience (sign-up, onboarding, and beyond). Deeply understand the user.
Collaborate with end users (developers!) using Postman to understand their core workflows and improve our product. Learn and grow.
Broaden your knowledge of the core product and the domain over time, starting with first-time UX but eventually branching out into deeper experiences on the Postman user’s journey. Collaborate across boundaries and geographies.
Collaborate on team processes to streamline collaboration across US and India team members. About you
Must have: At least 7+ years of experience building frontend or full-stack projects and user experiences. Track record of delivering impactful and engaging user experiences that delight users. Excellent communication skills. Good communication is key. Detail oriented. Care about the product experience that our teams are shipping. Measure twice, cut once. Analytical by nature with experience in delivering features leveraging analytics tools and experimentation techniques. Customer obsession. Able and willing to leverage the voice of the customer to expedite decision making and delight our users. Based in the San Francisco Bay Area. Nice-to-have: Experience working in a React application with state management tools like MobX. Experience working on B2B product and/or developer tools. Our values
At Postman, we create with the same curiosity that we see in our users. We value transparency & honest communication about not only successes but also failures. Our inclusive work culture ensures that everyone is valued equally as important pieces of our final product. What else?
If the role is based in the greater San Francisco area, the reasonably estimated salary for this role ranges from $177,607 to $240,292, plus a competitive equity package. Actual compensation is based on the candidate's skills, qualifications, and experience. In addition to our pay-on-performance philosophy, we offer a comprehensive set of benefits, including full medical coverage, flexible PTO, wellness reimbursement, and a monthly lunch stipend.
