Amplitude•San Francisco, CA

About The Position

The Growth organization is focused on helping users realize long-term value from Amplitude. The team plays a critical role in that journey by driving expansion within existing accounts. Many of our customers start with just a few users — often in product or data teams. Our job is to unlock value for everyone else. We build features that help new users set up, get activated, leverage AI for frictionless insights, highlight relevant parts of the product they might otherwise miss, and expand usage across teams and departments. This is especially impactful in large, complex organizations, where getting from the first few users to broad adoption is a multiplier for retention and revenue. We work across Amplitude’s core product suite and integrations, partnering closely with Product, Design, and GTM. We ship fast, test often, and use data to guide what we build and where we invest. Our work touches activation, feature adoption, habit formation, and expansion — the entire lifecycle of turning someone from a new user into a loyal advocate. This is a role for a product-minded engineer who wants to own meaningful projects end-to-end and help shape the strategy and systems behind how customers adopt Amplitude.
