At Paraform, we’re building the infrastructure behind the next generation of recruiting firms. Our platform powers top recruiters placing talent into startups like Ramp, Decagon, and Hightouch — and we do it by treating recruiters like high-performance partners, not vendors.
This role sits at the center of our supply-side growth and operations. You’ll work directly with Strategic Operations and Strategic Projects Leads whose role is to partner with elite Paraform recruiters, helping them scale their businesses, close top-tier talent, and win more clients. It’s part operator, part strategist, and part growth partner.
The Opportunity
We’re looking for a Growth Engineer to join our engineering team and accelerate marketplace growth with intelligent automations. In this hands-on, TypeScript-focused role, you’ll move quickly between scrappy MVPs and production-ready systems, collaborating with a world-class operations team to scale their workflows.
This is a chance to own high-impact projects that shape the future of Paraform—building the systems and automations that turn ideas into measurable growth at scale.
Responsibilities
Build dashboards (“Paratools”) that surface insights from candidate and recruiter data
Develop Slack automations that streamline recruiting operations and communication
Connect and integrate systems across the business to enable faster experimentation
Ship MVPs quickly (in hours/days), then scale proven experiments into robust systems
Collaborate cross-functionally to prioritize growth initiatives that directly impact business metrics
Surface unseen opportunities and boost team impact with intelligent automations for repetitive workflows
What We’re Looking For
TypeScript expertise and comfort working in an existing codebase
Strong database experience, ideally having worked with structured human data, e.g. candidate and recruiter data)
UI development skills for dashboards and lightweight internal tools
Experience with systems integration and automation (e.g., Slack, APIs, workflow automation)
Bias for experimentation and learning — ability to balance scrappy MVP builds with scalable engineering practices
Background in Series A/B startups or fast-moving environments (experience at automation- or workflow-driven companies like Notion, Zapier, or similar is a plus)
Computer Science degree (preferred, not required)
Why Paraform
Join a senior engineering team solving hard problems at the intersection of AI, recruiting, and growth
Build systems with the potential to become the “next LinkedIn,” transforming how talent is matched with opportunity
Work in an environment that values velocity, first-principles thinking, and full-stack problem solving
Competitive compensation, equity, and opportunity to grow with the company
