Engineering Manager, MURAL

• 5+ years of hands-on software engineering experience shipping production code, ideally with Node.js/TypeScript, though we welcome strong engineers from other modern stacks who can adapt quickly
• 2+ years managing engineering teams (3+ ICs), with a track record of delivering projects that moved business metrics—not just shipped features
• Ruthless prioritization skills: You know how to edit scope to the smallest thing that generates useful feedback, and you're comfortable killing experiments that aren't working
• An outcome-oriented and highly-experimental interest in AI-driven development practices: You're actively using AI tools throughout the development lifecycle and expect your team to do the same
• Comfort with ambiguity and speed: Growth work is inherently experimental—you thrive when the path isn't clear and iteration cycles are measured in days, not quarters

Desirable

• Growth Engineering sits at the intersection of product, marketing, and data—owning the systems that turn curious visitors into engaged, paying customers
• We own CAC for self-serve acquisition: paid channels, referrals, organic/SEO, and everything in between
• We run high-volume experiments, move fast, and measure everything
• Our job is to figure out what users love quickly, then double down
• If you're energized by short feedback loops, cross-functional collaboration, and seeing your work directly impact business metrics, this is the team
• As the Engineering Manager for Growth, you will own the technical strategy and execution for Mural's self-serve growth engine—from acquisition through conversion
• You will lead a team of ~5 engineers rebuilding our onboarding experience to dramatically improve trial-to-paid conversion, while scaling our experimentation platform to support 10x more concurrent tests
• You will work shoulder-to-shoulder with Marketing, Product, and Data to identify high-leverage opportunities and ship experiments that move the needle on revenue
• At Mural, R&D teams operate with significant autonomy to achieve their goals—and on Growth, those goals are directly tied to business outcomes you can see and measure
• The potential impact here is enormous
• Own growth engineering end-to-end: Lead technical decisions for paid acquisition, referrals, SEO, onboarding, and experimentation infrastructure—staying hands-on in the codebase (30-40% of your time) while guiding your team's delivery. You own production uptime and participate in on-call
• Rebuild onboarding to drive conversion: Architect and ship a new trial-to-paid experience, working closely with Product and Design to rapidly test hypotheses and iterate based on real user behavior
• Scale experimentation infrastructure: Evolve our A/B testing platform to handle 10x current volume, enabling the broader org to run more tests with less engineering lift
• Build and develop a high-performing team: Hire strong engineers, set clear expectations, deliver feedback in real-time, and create an environment where people do the best work of their careers
• Partner across functions: Collaborate daily with Marketing on acquisition channels, Data on measurement, and Product on prioritization—no silos, no handoffs, shared outcomes
