Job description
If you're interested in joining Grow Progress in an engineering role but don't see a position that matches your skill set, please apply here. We'll keep your information on file and will reach out if there's a match!
Our engineering team at Grow Progress is critical to our mission to build cutting-edge persuasion technology for social good. We’re pioneering a new approach to persuasion: giving our customers the power to persuade more people based on how they think — not just how they look.
Who We Are
Grow Progress gives our customers the power to persuade more people by tailoring their messages to match each audience member’s identity. We help customers harness the latest persuasion science to create messaging that’s typically 200% to 500% more effective than their existing ads. We do this by predicting which personality traits and values are most important to each individual based on their digital footprints.
We’re deploying these tools to super-charge campaigns, causes, and companies that make the world a better place. We currently work with many of the biggest Democratic pollsters, marketing agencies, advocacy groups, and labor unions in the country.
We’re a team of experienced campaigners, data scientists, and engineers who are obsessed with harnessing the power of evidence to make social good advocates more effective.
We’re ambitious, efficient, low-ego, and we like to make each other laugh.
Requirements
Why You Should Join
Our culture is fun, fast-paced, and focused on evidence. We encourage everyone to feel comfortable contributing ideas — even if it’s on a topic outside of their expertise.
Our engineering team prides itself for its ability to be nimble with its process, has an affinity for naming projects after birds, and never fails to lighten the mood with a seriously terrible joke.
You will be part of a team that works hard to get smarter together by giving each other feedback that’s direct, actionable, and respectful.
We’re deeply motivated by the work we do and committed to using the technology we build ethically, so we’re looking for teammates who feel the same way.
You will work on challenging technical problems with the goal of building lean and innovative solutions.
By being at the ground floor of a rapidly expanding company, you will get the opportunity to learn new skills, make important decisions, and work closely with team leaders.
