Everyone gets their own Townie, an AI assistant that learns how you work (your voice, judgment, relationships, and priorities) and does real work on your behalf across email, calendar, docs, Slack, and CRM. Townies don't wait to be prompted. They observe, learn, and act. And because every teammate has one, Townies can ask each other questions and hand off work, so the whole team moves faster together.\nFour months after our public launch, we became a $1B company. We recently raised a $108M Series B, co-led by Forerunner Ventures and Menlo Ventures, with continued support from Andreessen Horowitz, First Round Capital and angels such as Zach Perret, Soleio Cuervo, Scott Belsky, and more. Our founders, Jean-Denis and Tony, previously led EPD at Plaid and applied AI product at Google.\nAbout the Role\nTown is a product-led growth (PLG) company, and the product itself is our best growth channel. We're looking for a Growth Engineer who gets genuine joy out of moving the numbers: pulling people into Town, getting individuals onto teams, getting teams onto paid, and turning teams into enterprise customers.\nThe skillset overlaps heavily with our Product Engineers - you'll ship real product, fast. The difference is what makes you tick. As a Growth Engineer at Town, you're energized by things like optimizing the invite flow, the conversion funnel, and the dashboard: invites per user, free-to-paid conversion, whether credits are calibrated right, how to make every loop faster, more delightful, and more discoverable.\nThis is a foundational, high-leverage role. You'll own the systems that turn Town's core product into a self-propelling growth engine - and you'll work hand-in-hand with virtually all teams across the business to do it.\nExample projects include...\nVirality and the invite flow. Word of mouth is our most powerful growth lever. You'll work on building maximal virality into the product by improving how Town users spread the word. You'll make inviting new users faster, smoother, more delightful, and more discoverable. You'll run experiments around credits and incentives to pull more virality out of the core product.\n\nConversion and monetization. Revenue is the best indicator of how valuable of a product we're building. You'll focus on the user path from free to paid and from individual to team. Build and watch the dashboards tracking things like invites per user, conversion to paid, credit economics - and run experiments to move them.\n\nPersonal-to-team expansion. Design the upgrade flows. Solve problems like ensuring every team lands with at least 3 active members, and make team formation feel effortless.\n\nEnterprise readiness and upsell. Build the foundation that lets us land and expand enterprise accounts: admin controls, admin vs. member-only features, and enterprise SSO integration (a near-term must-have for us).\n\nYou might thrive in this role if you...\nAre energized by PLG mechanics. You see growth as a positive-sum, product-quality problem and you love digging into the small details that ultimately make big revenue impact.\n\nLove working cross-functionally. GTM & business teams are some of your key stakeholders, and you're energized by go-to-market fundamentals and understanding how what you're building impacts the revenue growth of the business.\n\nGet real joy out of running metrics. You instrument, measure, and obsess over a funnel, and you're happiest when a dashboard moves because of something you shipped.\n\nAre an experiment-driven builder. You ship, measure, and iterate\n\nHave tuned your AI-native coding workflow so you ship dramatically faster.\n\nAre comfortable defining technical direction in ambiguous, fast-moving environments.\n\nAre excited about working in-person in SF, five days a week.\n\nLocation\nSan Francisco, CA - five days a week in-person at our Financial District office (near Montgomery BART stop).","description_format":"text","description_chars":3938,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Artificial Intelligence","AI Agents"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-11T14:11:33Z"}],"visa":[{"country":"US","licensed_sponsor":true,"evidence":"H-1B filings in 12 months: 2","filings_12m":2,"filings_prev_12m":1,"green_card_filings_12m":0,"median_offered_wage_usd":192500,"route":null,"cap_exempt":false,"checked_at":"2026-10-29T16:27:21+00:00","sources":["US Department of Labor: LCA disclosure data (H-1B, H-1B1, E-3)"],"filings_for_role_12m":1}],"liveness":{"score":16,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":1,"p_active":0.362,"p_room":0.45,"age_days":58,"expected_fill_days":38,"reasons":["conf:2","win:tail"],"computed_at":"2026-10-31T05:58:55Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":300000,"is_top_pay":true},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/town-growth-engineer","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/town-growth-engineer.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-31T22:49:26Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":35606,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-01T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":687173},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=687173"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Ftown-growth-engineer"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Ftown-growth-engineer"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Ftown-growth-engineer"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/town-growth-engineer\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Ftown-growth-engineer"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":745874}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"town.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":745874},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
