Growth Engineer
We're hiring a Growth Engineer whose singular mission is to engineer virality into our product. Your job is to build sustainable growth loops that make each Jenni user naturally bring in additional users, creating a self-replenishing top-of-funnel that scales with our user base.
You'll own the entire growth engineering stack from identifying viral opportunities unique to academic research workflows, to building and testing viral mechanics, to analyzing and optimizing growth loops for maximum coefficient impact.
You’ll work closely with both product and growth teams to ideate, execute, and share insights.
What You'll Build
Collaboration-driven growth: Multi-author paper editing, peer review systems, supervisor-student workflows
Citation network effects: Reference sharing, collaborative bibliography building, citation relationship mapping
Knowledge sharing loops: Template libraries, methodology sharing, reusable research components
Academic social features: Publication showcasing, research interest matching, academic milestone sharing
Research discovery: Cross-paper insights, related work suggestions, researcher networking
Key Responsibilities
Engineer viral loops: Design and implement growth mechanisms that create natural sharing behaviors within user workflows
Growth experimentation: Run high-velocity A/B tests on viral features, referral programs, and sharing mechanics
Data-driven optimization: Analyze viral coefficients, sharing rates, and loop completion rates to identify optimization opportunities
Cross-functional collaboration: Work with product, design, and data teams to embed growth thinking into core features
Out of product experiments: that drive awareness and user acquisition
Requirements
3+ years as a growth engineer at a B2C startup with demonstrated viral growth success
Track record of building and optimizing growth loops that achieved viral coefficient >0.3
Experience with referral systems, social sharing, collaborative features, or network effects
Strong full-stack development skills
Technical
Advanced A/B testing and experimentation methodology
Growth analytics and cohort analysis
Mindset
Obsessed with user acquisition metrics and viral coefficients
Creative thinker who explores wild ideas
Data-driven approach to test hypotheses
Comfort with high-velocity experimentation and rapid iteration
Bonus
Experience with edtech products/ market
Understanding of academic publishing and research workflows
