 The Opportunity
 
 
 <ul>
 <li>
 Please not that this role will be a split of 70% Fronntend (Typescript and React) and 30% Backend (Typescript).
 
 
 </li>
 </ul>
 --
 
 
 We Are Investing In a Growth Engineering Team At Postman To Help Developers And Teams Onboard To a Powerful Product Experience That Starts With Single-player Developers, And Grows Into Teams That Collaborate On The Artifact Of The APIs Like How Teams Collaborate With The Artifact Of a Design File Using Figma. We Are Building This Team For a Number Of Reasons, Notably
 
 
 <ul>
 <li>
 Optimize sign-up and onboarding experience for both individuals and teams
 </li>
 <li>
 Help users uncover the power of Postman (it&rsquo;s so much more than &ldquo;just&rdquo; an API client), gradually and at the right moment
 </li>
 <li>
 Guide users to key activation moments (like creating their first collection, or inviting a member to their team) that lead to expansion and a stickier product experience
 
 
 </li>
 </ul>
 In effect: we know we have a product experience and funnel that works quite well. Now we want to optimize, tune, and make it even more amazing (and measure even more). We&rsquo;re looking for an experienced engineer who has worked on projects that generated measurable business impact. You&rsquo;ll work closely with Postman&rsquo;s engineering leadership and our product and design teams to achieve our mission of connecting 100M developers in the world. We specifically hope this person is you, because while the team is small right now, we want an eager, curious engineer who cares about building experiences that delight, convert, and measurably impact the business and work with a team of like-minded individuals who care deeply, too.
 
 
 We have built a ubiquitous, loved developer product and you&rsquo;d be joining the solid and growing team in the United States. If you&rsquo;re curious, see why I joined and hear about my experience in joining the rocket ship of an opportunity that is Postman.
 
 
 What You&rsquo;ll Do
 
 
 
 About
 
 
 
 To achieve our goals, we&rsquo;ll need a talented, experienced, and thoughtful engineer with a special interest and aptitude for growth. We are looking for someone who cares deeply about the details and spends time building user interfaces that delight users. We need an engineer who can be somewhat self-directed and who has great taste, judgment, and can iterate (and ship!) quickly to achieve the iterative improvements to our first-time user experience. To quote Frank Slootman (former Snowflake CEO):
 
 
 
 &ldquo;Strategy is overrated and execution is severely underrated. Mostly all companies plan well and mostly all companies fail at execution. Make execution the king in your company.&rdquo;
 
 &ndash; Frank Slootman, Amp it Up
 
 
 Execution Is Key On The Growth Engineering Team. We&rsquo;ll Need Someone Who Relentlessly Leads By Example On Execution And Ships Measurably Impactful Changes Regularly To The User Experience Of Postman.
