Growth Engineer (Entry-Level)
$90k - $120k USD
About the Role
We're hiring a Growth Engineer to help us build, automate, and scale the systems that drive Sent's developer acquisition and market intelligence. You'll work directly with our CEO on programmatic SEO, data pipelines, competitive intelligence, and the technical infrastructure that powers our go-to-market engine.
This is an ideal role for someone early in their career who wants to operate at the intersection of engineering and growth. You'll write code, scrape data, build automations, and ship experiments that directly impact how developers discover and adopt Sent.
What You'll Do
Build and maintain data pipelines that power our market intelligence and competitive research (web scraping, data structuring, enrichment)
Develop programmatic SEO infrastructure - templated pages, content generation, and indexing automation
Create internal tools and dashboards that help us understand developer behavior and campaign performance
Write scripts and automations to streamline GTM workflows (lead enrichment, outreach sequences, CRM hygiene)
Experiment with AI/LLM-powered workflows for content generation, data enrichment, and developer outreach
Collaborate with marketing on landing pages, conversion optimization, and technical content
Monitor and improve the performance of growth experiments with data-driven iteration
About You
What we're looking for:
0–2 years of experience in software engineering, data engineering, or a technical growth role
Strong programming skills in Python or JavaScript/TypeScript
Comfort with web scraping, APIs, and working with messy real-world data
Familiarity with SQL and basic data analysis
Interest in growth, marketing, and go-to-market strategy—not just pure engineering
Self-starter who thrives with autonomy and can ship quickly with minimal direction
Curiosity about AI tools and willingness to experiment with LLMs for automation
Nice to have:
Experience with SEO tools (Ahrefs, Semrush, Screaming Frog) or programmatic content generation
Familiarity with CRM/marketing tools (HubSpot, Salesforce, customer.io)
Previous exposure to startups, developer tools, or API products
Side projects or portfolio work demonstrating scrappy problem-solving

We're a team of 18 building the infrastructure layer for modern business communication.
This role reports directly to the CEO and offers unusual visibility into how a high-growth startup operates. You'll learn how to build growth systems from scratch and have real ownership over projects that move the needle.
