ConvertKit is a creator marketing platform built to empower creators to earn a living online. We help them own their audience and turn fans into customers. For makers, authors, chefs, musicians, athletes, and anyone else making a living by creating the culture we all love, there isn’t a better tool for reaching inboxes. More importantly, there isn’t a team more committed to helping creators earn a living doing work that matters.

We’re on a mission to help creators earn $1 billion using our SaaS marketing platform. We have always been 100% independent and 100% remote. We are proud to have built a product that our customers love, that 25,000+ creators use to earn a living, and we look for people who have enthusiasm and belief in our mission, vision, and values to join our team.

The ConvertKit culture is one where emotional intelligence is valued, radical candor is encouraged, and where everyone works together to uphold a set of shared team principles.

We are hiring a software engineer that enjoys the product side of product development; an engineer that has empathy for the Creators that we serve. The engineer will be joining our Onboarding Squad, which is responsible for guiding Creators to the tools they need in order to achieve their success. This squad works with a high level of experimentation and refinement to maximize impact on business and onboarding metrics.

This role is remote - you can live anywhere, but you must work in US or EMEA time zones. To learn more about how our engineering team works, peruse our engineering blog.

The right person has:

• Previous experience writing code that is accessible, scalable, maintainable, and performant
• A keen interest in working closely with Product and Engineering managers on prioritization. That includes analyzing risks and dependencies for proposed features, and providing insight into scope we can cut while still meeting business goals
• Experience utilizing experimentation that drives learning as well as business outcomes
• A commitment to mentoring and teaching other engineers formally and informally
• Experience with our stack (React/Rails)
• At least 5-7 years building software in a team environment
• Comfort working remotely in an autonomous and somewhat async environment
• Belief in our mission, vision, and values
