Founding Growth Engineer
Debrief solves future of work challenges with our asynchronous video management and collaboration platform. Using Debrief’s AI-powered transcription and search, a company can catalog all of their recordings and quickly find the right information. Companies use Debrief for knowledge bases, meeting archives, asynchronous feedback, and a single place to store their growing number of videos.
We are hiring a founding growth engineer to join our 3 person engineering team led by the founders (ex-Twitch senior and principal engineers). This role will have a massive impact on the product, company, and culture as we scale the way companies manage their video and collaborate asynchronously.
A growth engineer is driven by extreme excitement in building something new that may-or-may-not be doable. That person lives to tinker with new technology and is never afraid of a problem. They work fast to get to a solution, even if it means hacking things together.
