Growth Hacker – Engineer (palo alto)
Working here you will not get the following:
• Free food and haircuts.
• No onsite physicians either (you’ll still have to go to your own doctor).
• You won’t be a number.
• You won’t play a small role in a sea of engineers.
• You won’t get post-IPO equity with little potential for explosive growth.
You will get:
• To be on the ground floor of a very hot startup.
• To move the needle in a small team of very talented engineers.
• To blow minds, and change lives.
• To earn pre-IPO equity.

Desired Skills and Experience
• Proven experience as an engineer focused on growing a product, end-users, customers
• Experience with A/B Testing, Data mining, Analytics
• Proven technical, marketing, and product capabilities

• Background in lion taming, shark diving, cat herding, or magic
Bonus points if you:
