Software Engineer, Growth at Chime (San Francisco)

Chime is a fintech company offering banking services and personal loans to millions of members. Chime's Growth Engineering team is focused on building product experiences that directly move business metrics and help millions of people achieve financial progress. As a full stack Growth Engineer, you'll work across the stack - React and TypeScript on the front end, Rails and Go services behind it - to build features that drive member growth at Chime.

Key responsibilities

• Build and ship growth-focused consumer features end to end - React and TypeScript interfaces, the services and APIs behind them
• Collaborate cross-functionally with mobile, product, design, data science, and marketing teams to identify member pain points and opportunities
• Rapidly prototype and launch A/B tests, iterating on ideas that improve activation, conversion, and engagement
• Analyze the performance of features post-launch to inform future iterations and growth strategies
• Apply a metrics-driven mindset to decision-making and prioritize efforts based on member and business impact
• Improve reliability, scalability, and performance across the stack - from page load and funnel conversion on the client to latency

Requirements

• 2+ years of experience building scalable software in production environments
• Proven experience with both a modern front-end framework (React or comparable) and a server-side framework (Ruby on Rails, Go, or comparable)
• Experience designing APIs and working with transactional databases and caching, plus client-side state, performance, and component-driven UI
• Comfort owning a feature across the full stack, and eagerness to learn the parts you haven't touched yet
• A product mindset with a strong bias toward experimentation, iteration, and measuring impact
• Exposure to large-scale architecture patterns and an appreciation for clean, maintainable code

Location and schedule

• Onsite in San Francisco, California
