Job Description

Staff Software Engineer, Growth

PlayOn! Sports

• Serve as the technical lead of the cross-functional product trio, owning technical strategy and driving feasibility assessments alongside PM and Design. • Set the architectural direction for how PlayOn runs subscription growth experiments across NFHS Network, GoFan, and MaxPreps. • Design, implement, and measure rapid experiments, iterating based on data to optimize conversion, retention, and engagement. • Build internal tooling and experiment scaffolding that compounds the pod’s velocity over time. • Leverage AI coding tools and agent-assisted workflows to accelerate experiment delivery and raise the quality bar for the pod. • Identify and drive resolution of cross-team technical dependencies when growth work requires coordination beyond the pod. • Mentor engineers on the pod through code and design reviews that move knowledge, not just catch bugs.

Job Requirements

  • 8+ years of professional software engineering experience, including time at staff level or equivalent, with deep focus on consumer subscription growth.
  • A track record of technical leadership beyond the team — you’ve shaped how engineering organizations approach growth, experimentation, or subscription infrastructure.
  • Direct connection to revenue impact — you’ve moved conversion, ARPU, retention, or LTV at scale and can speak in detail about what worked and what didn’t.
  • Full-stack engineering ability across TypeScript/JavaScript with a frontend framework (Vue.js, React, or similar) and Node.js, with comfort in Ruby on Rails for our subscription stack.
  • Hands-on experience with the systems that power subscription growth: Stripe or equivalent; Segment, Amplitude, or similar; LaunchDarkly, Statsig, or equivalent.
  • Architectural judgment — you’ve made platform-level decisions about experimentation infrastructure or subscription surfaces and lived with the consequences long enough to learn from them.
  • Data literacy — you can write SQL, use product analytics tools, and evaluate whether an experiment result is trustworthy.
  • Actively uses AI tools (Copilot, Claude, Cursor, or similar) to move faster and produce higher-quality work — and shares what works with the engineers around you.
  • Bonus: you’ve built internal growth tooling that accelerated experiment velocity at an org level, you have native mobile or CTV experience (Roku, Fire TV), or you’ve worked in sports media or OTT streaming.

Benefits

  • Multiple medical insurance plans to choose from
  • Dental, vision life and disability insurance
  • Employee Emergency Fund
  • Company equity (stock options)
  • Open PTO policy
  • 401K plan with company match
  • Hybrid/flexible work environment
