Growth Engineer

Summary

Dust is an innovative company focused on creating an AI operating system that transforms how work is done. They are seeking a Growth Engineer who will bridge engineering and go-to-market efforts, responsible for building technical systems that enhance user acquisition and conversion.

Responsibilities

• Ship directly on dust.tt: landing pages, conversion flows, forms, and experiments, with the velocity of a founder, not the process of a platform team
• Implement and own end-to-end tracking across our growth funnel (ads attribution, UTM params, gclid, cookie/browser tracking, HubSpot integration)
• Design and run rapid experiments (A/B tests, new pages, new CTAs) and double down on what the data says works
• Build high-leverage internal applications for Sales, Growth, and Marketing: signal-based notification systems, control towers, quote-to-cash automation between HubSpot and Stripe, outbound tooling
• Create production-grade tools that our GTM team actually relies on daily, going far beyond prototypes, with real security, reliability, and autonomy
• Leverage Dust's own platform to build AI-powered agents and workflows that give our go-to-market team an unfair advantage
• Own our marketing and growth data stack: instrument events, build dashboards, and ensure data is clean, reliable, and actionable across PostHog, Snowflake, and Metabase
• Partner with Growth Marketers to define metrics, track performance, and generate insights that drive campaign and funnel decisions
• Build and maintain integrations across our GTM stack (CRM, CDP, ad platforms, enrichment tools)
• Serve as the technical backbone of the growth team: translate vague marketing requests into scoped technical specs and ship them autonomously
• Work closely with GTM Engineers on data architecture and with Growth Marketers on acquisition strategy
• Maintain a dotted line to Product Engineering to ensure code quality, security best practices, and architectural coherence

Skills

• Software engineer first. Strong engineering fundamentals, ideally full-stack (TypeScript/React + backend). You write clean, production-grade code
• AI-pilled. You're a power user of AI coding tools (Claude Code, Cursor, or equivalent). You don't just use AI, you build with it and think about how it changes what's possible. This is a hard requirement
• Growth mindset, literally. Genuine interest in growth, marketing funnels, and user acquisition. You care about conversion rates as much as code quality
• Hands-on with analytics and tracking. Experience with tools like PostHog, GA4, Segment, Mixpanel, or similar. You've instrumented events, debugged attribution, or built dashboards before
• Autonomous and fast. You thrive in ambiguous, fast-moving environments. You don't wait for a spec; you write the spec and ship the solution
• 1-4 years of professional software engineering experience. Prior growth engineering, marketing technology, or internal tools experience is a plus
• Background in SEO infrastructure, programmatic content, or developer marketing
• Familiarity with Stripe integrations, billing systems, or commerce flows
• Prior work at a high-growth startup (especially AI-native or developer tools)
