Why You Should Join Us

Plaud is building the next generation intelligence infrastructure and interfaces to capture, extract, and utilize intelligence from what people say, hear, see, and think.

- Plaud is a bootstrapped, skyrocketing, profitable company with a $300M revenue run rate achieved in just three years.

- Define the next-gen paradigm for human-AI interaction.

- Gain exposure to cutting-edge AI for Pro tools and play a direct role in our global expansion.

- Work with passionate teammates who value innovation, collaboration, and customer success.

- Grow your career in a culture that champions continuous learning and fast career development.

- Market-competitive compensation, global exposure, and a vibrant, creativity-fueled work atmosphere.

Growth is a brand-new team at Plaud, and you would build it from the start. You'd own onboarding, experimentation and funnel optimization across every surface our users touch: the device, mobile, web and desktop. You start with 3M+ users and a device already in their hands. We want someone who has run growth engineering at a product-led company, lives in experiments and still ships code.

What you will do

- Build Plaud's Growth engineering team from scratch, and define its strategy for onboarding, experimentation and funnel optimization across every surface users touch: the device, mobile, web and desktop.

- Hire, lead and grow the team (full-stack, mobile and data-minded engineers), and stay hands-on in the code when it helps.

- Own the end-user onboarding experience, from device setup and signup through first run and activation, so new users get value in their first session.

- Build and run a high-tempo experiment program on our experimentation platform, with sound statistics, clear readouts and shared learnings.

- Find and fix the biggest drop-offs in the user funnel, and turn what works into reusable patterns other product teams can adopt.

- Partner with the Data team on funnel instrumentation and experiment data the whole company can trust.

- Work closely with the product, pricing and app framework teams so that experiments ship safely behind feature flags on every surface.

- Report on activation, conversion through the funnel and experiment velocity, plus the guardrail metrics that must not get worse.

Skills, qualifications and experience we look for

- 10+ years of software engineering experience, including 3+ years leading growth engineering at a product-led consumer or prosumer company.

- Proven track record shipping onboarding and activation improvements that moved measurable metrics.

- Deep experimentation expertise: test design, statistical power, guardrail metrics, and knowing when not to run a test.

- Experience optimizing funnels across several surfaces (mobile, web, desktop). Hardware or device onboarding is a strong plus.

- Strong full-stack skills (React, mobile, and a backend language such as Go, Python or Node.js) and comfort writing production code.

- Experience with experimentation and analytics tools such as PostHog, Amplitude or Segment.

- Has built a team from scratch, with excellent collaboration across Product, Design and Data.

What we offer

1. Meaningful Ownership An Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) that gives a real stake in Plaud’s long-term success.

2. High-Impact Environment Work in a fast-moving, product-driven environment where your ideas directly shape the future of AI productivity.

3. Cutting-Edge AI Tools for Productivity Access to best-in-class AI tools, including Gemini, Claude Code, and other frontier AI systems to maximize engineering and execution efficiency.

4. Best-in-Class Equipment Choice of top-spec laptops, high-performance workstation setups, and cutting-edge Plaud devices for all new hires.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
