Job summary

Chime is seeking a Growth Engineer to help build end-to-end growth features using React and TypeScript on the frontend and Rails/Go on the backend. You will collaborate with product, design, data science, marketing, and analytics to experiment rapidly and measure outcomes that move key business metrics.

You will own features across the stack, design APIs, and enable data-driven experiments to improve activation, conversion, and engagement while maintaining scalable, reliable systems.

Qualifications

• 2+ years of experience building scalable software in production environments.
• Proven experience with both a modern front-end framework (React or comparable) and a server-side framework (Ruby on Rails, Go, or comparable).
• Experience designing APIs and working with transactional databases and caching, plus client-side state, performance, and component-driven UI.
• Comfort owning a feature across the full stack, and eagerness to learn the parts you haven't touched yet.
• A product mindset with a strong bias toward experimentation, iteration, and measuring impact.
• Exposure to large-scale architecture patterns and an appreciation for clean, maintainable code.

Responsibilities

• Build and ship growth-focused consumer features end to end - React and TypeScript interfaces, the services and APIs behind them, and the experiments that measure them.
• Collaborate cross-functionally with mobile, product, design, data science, and marketing teams to identify member pain points and opportunities.
• Rapidly prototype and launch A/B tests, iterating on ideas that improve activation, conversion, and engagement.
• Analyze the performance of features post-launch to inform future iterations and growth strategies.
• Apply a metrics-driven mindset to decision-making and prioritize efforts based on member and business impact.
• Improve reliability, scalability, and performance across the stack - from page load and funnel conversion on the client to latency and throughput in our services.
• Contribute to a culture of technical excellence through mentorship, code reviews, and driving best practices.
