Missions

As a Senior Engineer in our Growth team, you’ll ideate, build and iterate on the product experiences that turn users into successful, long-term customers. You’ll own high-impact parts of the Cloud journey — from signup and onboarding to billing, upgrade flows, and in-product experience — using experimentation, product intuition, and data to improve activation, retention, and monetization.

This is a hands-on engineering role on a high-leverage growth team, working closely with product, design, data, marketing, and engineering to accelerate n8n’s self-serve growth engine.

What You'll Do

• Ship high-impact experiments: Design, build, and A/B test new features to increase conversion and retention (upgrade flows, contextual prompts, pricing nudges).
• Drive measurable business outcomes: Directly contribute to n8n’s ARR, user retention, and growth KPIs. Track performance, identify areas to improve, and ship iteratively.
• Scale growth systems: Help build and optimize services to enable user growth at scale, such as in-app messaging platforms, billing systems, and email orchestration tools.
• Improve and maintain growth-critical features: Take ownership of signup, onboarding, and the admin dashboard to ensure a smooth, performant experience for every new user.

Projects You Might Tackle

• Personalizing onboarding based on initial interactions to get more users to first success.
• Testing AI credit metering and the UI around it: usage limits, paywalls, and upgrade nudges.
• Building experimentation infrastructure.

Requirements

• 5+ years of full-stack engineering experience with TypeScript/JavaScript, Node.js, and Vue or React (plus HTML/CSS/UI libraries).
• Growth Metrics Track Record: Experience owning product activation, retention, or revenue on a growth or PLG team at a SaaS company.
• Experimentation: Hands-on experience shipping experiments yourself, from hypothesis to ship/kill decision.
• Product Mindedness: Ability to ship without a PM and make sound product decisions. Comfortable speaking with users for signal.
• Data Fluency: Ability to query data yourself and make decisions based on user behavior and experiment results.
• Comfort with Ambiguity: Proactive mindset that iterates and moves forward without waiting for perfect specs or designs.
• Speed + Ownership: Fast and responsible execution, understanding that experimentation velocity is core to growth.

Nice-to-Have

• Exposure to pricing strategy, funnel optimization, or revenue KPIs.
• Past experience as a founder or early-stage startup engineer.
