• We have built a ubiquitous, loved developer product and you’d be joining the solid and growing team in the United States. If you’re curious, see why I joined and hear about my experience in joining the rocket ship of an opportunity that is Postman.
• What You’ll Do

To achieve our goals, we’ll need a talented, experienced, and thoughtful engineer with a special interest and aptitude for growth. We are looking for someone who cares deeply about the details and spends time building user interfaces that delight users. We need an engineer who can be somewhat self-directed and who has great taste, judgment, and can iterate (and ship!) quickly to achieve the iterative improvements to our first-time user experience. To quote Frank Slootman (former Snowflake CEO): “Strategy is overrated and execution is severely underrated. Mostly all companies plan well and mostly all companies fail at execution. Make execution the king in your company.” – Frank Slootman, Amp it Up

Execution is key on the Growth Engineering team. We’ll need someone who relentlessly leads by example on execution and ships measurably impactful changes regularly to the user experience of Postman. We’ll progress and continuously improve towards achieving our goals and metrics and most importantly we’ll deliver an increasingly delightful product experience that developers love to use. You should expect to:

• Own and deliver. Deliver improvements to the core product experience that help us achieve our goals around onboarding and activation
• Deliver little big changes. Deliver small, measured changes that meaningfully impact end users and successful activation of these users
• Experiment and identify winners. We have a great foundation of experimentation on the team and you will need to leverage and improve this foundation to ship A/B tested changes that we know have an impact on our goals.
• Own end-to-end workflows. Own end-to-end and understand core workflows, driving measurable improvements to user experience particularly focused on first-time user experience (sign-up, onboarding, and beyond)
• Deeply understand the user. Collaborate and work with end users (developers!) using Postman to understand their core workflows and then use that knowledge to improve our product
• Learn and grow. Broaden your knowledge of the core product and the domain over time, starting with first-time UX but eventually branching out into driving improvement to deeper experiences on the Postman user’s journey, and
• Collaborate across boundaries and geographies. Collaborate on team processes to streamline collaboration across US and India team members
• About You
• Must have:
• At least 8+ years of experience building frontend or full-stack (nice to have) projects and user experiences.
• Track record of delivering impactful and engaging user experiences that delight users
• Deep expertise in building the modern web with JavaScript, HTML, and CSS. You likely have used libraries or frameworks like React or Next.js, but we care much more about the fundamentals than the tech stack.
• Excellent communication skills. We’re a hybrid team and we’re going to be moving fast together. Good communication is key.
• Detail oriented. We have to care about the details, and while we don’t expect you to be a designer, you need to care about the product experience that our teams are shipping.
• Measure twice, cut once. We expect that you are analytical by nature and have experience in delivering features, improvements, and changes that leverage analytics tools (like LaunchDarkly) and experimentation techniques.
• Customer obsession. As we are a core product with years of muscle memory, we need an engineer who is able and willing to leverage the voice of the customer to expedite decision making, develop conviction, and most importantly delight our user.
• Based in the San Francisco Bay Area.
• Nice-to-have:
• Experience working with or using full-stack JavaScript / TypeScript
• Experience working in a React application with state management tools like MobX
• Experience working on B2B product and/or developer tools

This role is based in the greater San Francisco area, and the reasonably estimated salary for this role ranges from $210,000 to $240,000 plus a competitive equity package. Actual compensation is based on the candidate's skills, qualifications, and experience. What Else?

In addition to Postman's pay-on-performance philosophy, and a flexible schedule working with a fun, collaborative team, Postman offers a comprehensive set of benefits, including full medical coverage, flexible PTO, wellness reimbursement, and a monthly lunch stipend. Along with that, our wellness programs will help you stay in the best of your physical and mental health. Our frequent and fascinating team-building events will keep you connected, while our donation-matching program can support the causes you care about. We’re building a long-term company with an inclusive culture where everyone can be the best version of themselves.

At Postman we value in person collaboration. We are in office 5 days a week for all roles based out of our hubs in San Francisco Bay Area, Boston, Austin, Tokyo and London. For roles based in Bangalore, employees currently work in the office three days a week and will transition to five days per week by the end of the year. We were thoughtful in our approach which is based on collaboration and grounded in feedback from our workforce, leadership team, and peers. The benefits of our in office model will be shared knowledge, brainstorming sessions, communication, and building trust in-person that cannot be replicated via zoom.

• Our Values

At Postman, we create with the same curiosity that we see in our users. We value transparency and honest communication about not only successes, but also failures. In our work, we focus on specific goals that add up to a larger vision. Our inclusive work culture ensures that everyone is valued equally as important pieces of our final product. We are dedicated to delivering the best products we can.
