[Hiring] Lead Engineer, Growth @Alt Platform Inc

Role Description

You are our founding Growth Engineer, and you turn today's experiments into instrumented, repeatable systems across both sides of the marketplace — sellers and buyers. The metric you own: unique submissions. It is our north star, the whole company watches it, and you'll be held to it with the same weekly-reported discipline we hold marketing to.

• Activation funnel: Rebuild the submission funnel end to end, instrument every step, and run a real experimentation loop on it — A/B testing, and re-engagement for the users who exit without submitting.
• Acquisition channels: Work out which channels bring in real users on both sides — lifecycle, SEO, AEO, paid, mobile ads — and build the machinery to scale the ones that work.
• Data and attribution foundation: Stand up clean attribution, consolidate our product analytics into a single source of truth, and modernize the messaging and deep-linking stack.
• Lifecycle infrastructure: Turn push, in-app, email, and SMS into an owned, instrumented system rather than per-campaign setups.
• Marketplace balance: Watch the balance across bidders, buyers, and sellers, and build growth into whichever side is weak.

How You'll Use AI Here

• Own agentic search visibility as an engineering problem.
• Stand up an agent that reads the funnel — event stream, attribution tables, experiment results.
• Use models to generate and QA lifecycle content at variant scale.
• Put an MCP server over product analytics and attribution.
• Use Claude Code or Cursor as the default way you rebuild the funnel instrumentation or migrate the analytics stack.

Qualifications

• 5+ years of engineering experience with strong backend (Python, Postgres, AWS or similar) and frontend (React, React Native, JavaScript/TypeScript) skills.
• A track record of owning growth systems or product features from design to production.
• Fluency with growth tooling and analytics — experimentation and A/B frameworks, product analytics (PostHog, Amplitude, or similar), attribution (AppsFlyer or similar), and lifecycle platforms.
• A sharp instinct for funnels and instrumentation.
• Comfort owning a north-star metric.
• Strong collaboration and communication skills.

Bonus

• Familiarity with the collectibles space or alternative asset marketplaces.
