P.S: We highly recommend reading The "API-First World" graphic novel to understand the bigger picture and our vision at Postman.

Our customers are doing more and more astounding things with the Postman product every day, and as a result, we are growing rapidly.

The team.

The Growth team at Postman focuses on driving key business metrics through rapid experimentation, data-driven decision making & qualitative user research. The Growth org’s cross-functional squads collaborate to improve new user & team experiences by minimizing friction around onboarding, activation, conversion, & expansion for our users.

As we scale our Growth team, we also need to scale our experimentation (A/B testing) infrastructure. We’re looking for experienced Full Stack, data-driven Software Engineers to join our Growth Foundation team where you’ll support teams who are actively building experiments. You’ll be solving challenging technical problems to help improve our third-party integrations, foundational services, experimentation tooling and infrastructure, and data infrastructure. You’ll also be supporting teams through training, technical reviews, and documentation.

You’ll have experience in frontend engineering (React.js/JavaScript) as well as on the backend (Node.js). It’s ok if you lean more heavily towards the frontend or backend. You thrive on customer service and enabling other developers to succeed by solving complex, cross-cutting problems. Though not required, previous experience working on a tooling team or growth team is preferable.

This position will directly impact millions of users, so if you want to be a part of something big, this one’s for you!

Being a remote-first organisation, our team is spread across the globe and we’re open to considering candidates based in India, or Europe.

What You'll Do.

• Create and maintain foundational backend service written in Node.js
• Create and maintain user-facing, reusable frontend components written in Javascript / React.js in the Postman application
• Create abstractions, libraries, and tools that enable rapid implementation of experiments and analytics tracking across Postman
• Support Postman’s integrations and usage of third-party tools such as Amplitude, Iterable, and LaunchDarkly
• Support teams across Postman who want to design and implement experiments by providing documentation and training for our services and recommended best practices
• Support teams across Postman who want to design and implement experiments by providing technical reviews of their implementation plans and code reviews of their PRs
• Assist with Feature Management (i.e. Feature Flags / Feature Toggles) within the code and in LaunchDarkly
• Assist with product analytics instrumentation and reporting within the code and in Amplitude

About you.

• 4 years + Full-stack engineering experience, ideally gained working for a product-led growth (PLG) organisation.
• 3 years + React.js experience (or another Javascript framework).
• Experience with Node.js highly preferably (or another backend language)
• A/B testing expertise
• Experience with relational and non-relational database storage
• Experience using event-based analytics and integration tools such as Amplitude, Segment, or Mixpanel
• Experience or strong interest in moving into a growth-engineering role
• You have an "explorer" mindset and love ideating and building provisional solutions and rapid prototypes in order to test ideas quickly
• Highly data driven
• Alignment with Postman values
• Lots of smiles :)

Nice to Have.

• Experience being a Postman user
• Previous experience of running experiments and A/B testing
• Understanding of Growth principles such as acquisition loops, engagement/habit loops, retention, “Aha moment,” activation, onboarding
• Experiment Design - a good intuition around different tradeoffs when designing product experiments (A/B tests)
• Experiment Debugging - experience testing whether an experiment is tracking properly in production before ramping traffic
• Feature Management - tools such as LaunchDarkly or similar.
• Data Management - database migrations, ETL, dbt, Python, etc
