Lead the growth engineering team to implement technical infrastructure for self-serve journeys, optimize key metrics, and ship features in a dynamic startup environment.
About PushPress
PushPress is building the Intelligent Industry Ledger for boutique fitness.
We’re transforming how boutique gyms operate — and how the entire $100B fitness industry connects, transacts, and grows. Trusted by 5,000+ gyms and 500,000+ members, PushPress processes over $500M annually and is backed by Altos Ventures and Mucker Capital.
We're evolving from a traditional business system of record into an AI-powered Industry Ledger — an intelligent infrastructure layer that brings order to a highly fragmented boutique fitness industry. By unifying disconnected operators, workflows, and data into a single platform, we’re enabling faster decisions, new business models, cross-gym collaboration, and network effects that increase the value of every studio in our client base.
We’re a global team of builders, operators, and fitness fanatics on a mission to level the playing field for fitness entrepreneurs. If you're ready to help reshape an industry — let’s talk.
We’re looking for a growth-minded technical lead for our 3-person growth engineering team, partnering closely with our growth function to build and optimize PushPress's PLG motion. You'll be responsible for the technical implementation and infrastructure that powers our self-serve journey, while collaborating with growth on strategy and experimentation. This is a hands-on technical leadership role. You'll have significant autonomy to shape how we build and scale our PLG infrastructure. We're early enough that you'll define best practices and build foundational systems, but mature enough that you'll see immediate impact on real customers and revenue.
Impact You'll Own
- Partner with growth to improve key PLG metrics: onboarding conversion, activation rates, free-to-paid conversion, and add-on adoption
- Build the technical infrastructure for rapid experimentation: feature flags, A/B testing framework, and analytics pipeline
- Implement growth initiatives across the product: in-app onboarding, usage-based triggers, billing experiments, and expansion prompts
- Ship experiments weekly while maintaining code quality and system performance
- Develop data pipelines and dashboards to measure impact and inform decision-making
- Mentor and grow the growth engineering team as we scale
Technical Bar
- Strong TypeScript/Node.js skills with B2B SaaS experience
- Experience building experimentation and feature flag systems
- Solid understanding of SaaS metrics and funnel optimization
- Proficiency with our stack: Node.js, Fastify, React, MySQL, Redis, RabbitMQ (or equivalent)
- Experience with product analytics tools (Segment, Amplitude, Heap, or similar)
- Bonus: Experience with customer data platforms or ML for personalization
What We're Looking For
- 7+ years engineering experience with 3+ years in growth engineering
- Track record of shipping features that measurably improved business metrics
- Experience leading small technical teams
- Strong collaboration skills—you'll work closely with growth, product, and data teams
- Comfortable with iterative development and rapid experimentation
- Self-directed with good judgment about when to move fast vs. build for scale
