Missions
As a Senior Engineer on our Growth team, your mission would be to build and iterate on features and systems that drive user acquisition, activation, retention and monetization —ultimately accelerating n8n’s self-serve growth engine.

This is a unique opportunity to be an engineer on a high-impact team where you’ll collaborate closely with product, design, marketing, and engineering peers to improve the entire Cloud user journey — from sign-up to subscription.

What You’ll Do

🔧 Improve and maintain growth-critical features – You’ll take ownership of flows like signup, onboarding, and the admin dashboard to ensure a smooth, performant experience for every new user

🚀 Ship high-impact experiments – You’ll design, build, and A/B test new features to increase conversion and retention — think upgrade flows, contextual prompts, or new pricing nudges

🧠 Scale our growth systems – You’ll help build and optimize services to enable user growth at scale, like in-app messaging platforms, billing systems, and email orchestration tools

📈 Drive measurable business outcomes - Your work will directly contribute to n8n’s ARR, user retention, and growth KPIs. You'll track performance, identify areas to improve, and ship iteratively to increase activation and retention

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

Who You Are & What You’ll Bring

• 5+ years of full-stack engineering experience with TypeScript/JavaScript, Node.js, and Vue or React (plus HTML/CSS/UI libraries).

• You've owned growth metrics: product activation, retention, or revenue, on a growth or PLG team at a SaaS company

• You've shipped experiments yourself, from hypothesis to ship/kill decision

• Product mindedness: You can ship without a PM and make the right call most of the time. You can talk to users when you need the signal.

• Data fluency: You can query data yourself and make decisions from user behaviour and experiments

• Comfort with ambiguity: You don't wait for perfect specs or designs. You move forward and iterate.

• Speed + ownership mindset: You move fast but responsibly, understanding that experimentation and velocity are core to unlocking growth.
  

Nice-to-have

• Exposure to pricing strategy, funnel optimization, or revenue KPIs

• Past experience as a founder or early-stage startup engineer
