About the role

We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join our Growth team, where you’ll help millions of creators and businesses get more out of Linktree. Growth spans the full journey, from how people discover Linktree through activation, engagement, retention, and monetization, and our team works across all of it rather than any single stage.

What they're looking for

  • 5+ years of professional software engineering experience, ideally including time spent on growth, activation, or lifecycle-focused teams
  • Strong product sense and experience running or contributing to A/B tests and product experiments, with comfort interpreting data to make decisions
  • Experience designing and integrating services and APIs, including internal and third-party integrations, within cloud-based, service-oriented architectures
  • Comfortable with data: SQL, data modeling, and working with data warehouses (e.g., Snowflake, BigQuery) to inform decisions
  • Fluency with AI-assisted development (e.g., Claude, Cursor, Codex, Devin), including how to prompt, iterate, validate, and refine what these tools produce, plus interest in applying AI within the product experience
  • Excellent collaborator who communicates clearly with product, design, and data partners and can influence direction through evidence and technical judgment
