Job summary

Kovo is seeking an experienced product engineer to lead the core product, design and run experiments, and own the lifecycle system. You will prototype in sandbox environments, ship production PRs, and instrument events to measure impact on conversion, retention, and activation.

The role emphasizes SQL expertise, rapid shipping, and ownership of experimentation workflows and monitoring. You will work with a small, high-performing team focused on expanding access to financial tools.

Qualifications

• 4+ years in product engineering, growth engineering, or a product role shipping code.
• Proven ability to impact activation, conversion, retention or reactivation.
• Strong SQL and data-driven experimentation mindset.

Responsibilities

• Set the direction for the core product and measure impact on key metrics.
• Prototype in sandbox, ship production PRs, and instrument events.
• Run end-to-end experiments and own the lifecycle system (workflows, templates, triggers, monitoring).

Job description

• Set the direction for the core product, ranking bets by measured impact on conversion, retention, and lifetime value.
• Build it yourself: prototype in sandbox environments, ship production PRs, and instrument events cleanly.
• Run experiments end-to-end and own the lifecycle system, including workflows, templates, triggers, and monitoring.

Where your time goes:

• Most of it finding and shipping the highest-leverage improvements across the existing product.
• Some of it building a system that runs experiments with fewer humans in the loop every quarter.
• A little of it setting the roadmap and keeping the team informed.

About you:

• PR first: you fix what you find, write your own SQL, and read your own experiments.
• 4+ years in product engineering, growth engineering, or a product role where you shipped your own code.
• Track record of measured wins in activation, conversion, retention, or reactivation in a consumer product.
