Job description

We're building the creative layer for modern communication. Every month, over a billion people make presentations — but the tools they use to make them haven't evolved in decades. We're changing that, using AI to disrupt a massive market.

📈 Millions of people rely on Gamma to create, teach, and persuade, creating more than 1 million gammas every day.

💻 We see Gamma as the next great workplace tool, combining viral B2C love with a massive B2B opportunity. We believe AI can be a true creative partner: one that understands context, clarity, and taste.

💸 We’ve reached a $2.1B valuation, crossed $100M in annual recurring revenue, and have been profitable since 2023.

💙 We're an imaginative, passionate team who takes our work seriously, but not ourselves. Our culture is warm, a little quirky, and fueled by curiosity.

About the role

You'll build and optimize the experiences that turn visitors into users and users into paying customers. This means owning new user onboarding, activation funnels, viral loops, and monetization features including credit systems, paywalls, pricing experiments, and upgrade flows. You'll work across the full stack—from frontend UX to backend logic to analytics instrumentation—while running A/B tests and iterating rapidly based on data to move key metrics.

As Software Engineer on the Growth team, you'll partner with PM, design, and data to drive measurable impact on our business. You'll balance scrappy experimentation with deliberate execution, moving fast when trying new ideas but slowing down when dealing with money. You'll be motivated by seeing growth and monetization metrics go up and to the right.

Our team has a strong in‑office culture and works in person 4–5 days per week in San Francisco. We love working together to stay creative and connected, with flexibility to work from home when focus matters most.

What you'll do

Build and optimize onboarding flows, activation funnels, and viral loops that drive user growth

Implement monetization features including credit systems, paywalls, pricing experiments, and upgrade flows

Run A/B tests and iterate rapidly, building tooling to improve our experimentation framework

Own key growth metrics including sign‑ups, activation rates, conversion, and retention

Work across the full stack from frontend to backend to analytics instrumentation

Partner with PM, design, and data to translate business goals into technical implementations

What you'll bring

3+ years building production web applications with strong full‑stack fundamentals

Proficiency in TypeScript, React, and Node.js (or strong fundamentals in similar technologies)

Strong product and business sense with motivation to move growth and monetization metrics

Data‑driven mindset with comfort using A/B testing, analytics, and interpreting metrics

Ability to move fast when experimenting but also slow and deliberately when dealing with credits and payments

Scrappy approach with comfort in ambiguity and iterative shipping

(Nice to have) Experience with growth/monetization systems like onboarding, paywalls, referrals, or payment flows

Compensation range

Final offer amounts are determined by multiple factors, including but not limited to experience and expertise in the requirements listed above.

If you're interested in this role but you don't meet every requirement, we encourage you to apply anyway! We're always excited about meeting great people.

We're building on a full Typescript stack centered around some of the most modern and popular technologies.

We use our own custom, open‑source AI prompting framework, AIJSX. We have a lot of custom tools built in‑house, but also new tools like Vercel AI SDK.

Life at Gamma

You get energy from small teams doing big things.

You love when design, code, and storytelling overlap.

You default to action, even when the answer isn’t clear yet.

You value details, but know when to ship and move on.

You bring both the spreadsheets and the sparkle, equal parts workhorse and unicorn.

You believe AI should amplify creativity, not replace it.

You know kindness and intensity are not opposites.

You like working with people who care deeply: about their craft, their teammates, and the users on the other side of the screen.

💙 Who we are

Gamma is full of imaginative, passionate people who take their work seriously but not themselves. The culture is warm, a little quirky, and fueled by curiosity. It’s the kind of place where you’ll debate a pixel on Monday, laugh over someone’s keyboard setup on Tuesday, and ship something remarkable by Friday.

We care about craft, move with intention, and don’t mind getting a little scrappy. It’s fast, creative, and occasionally chaotic — but that’s what makes it interesting.
