Senior Backend Engineer - Product growth
About the role
The Product Growth team drives Cloudinary’s self-serve success by crafting seamless, scalable platform experiences that help users discover more value, activate faster, and grow their usage over time.
As a Senior Backend Engineer, you’ll play a key role in shaping and implementing growth-oriented experiments - from fine-tuning onboarding and registration flows to improving user activation and retention. Unlike core product teams, we focus on the connective tissue of the platform - the touchpoints that influence how users experience and adopt Cloudinary.
You’ll join a small, cross-functional team of frontend engineers, a designer, a product lead, and a quality engineer. Together, we move fast, iterate often, and measure our impact directly through user behavior and business growth.
Team lead insights
I’m looking for a strong backend engineer who loves solving challenges and experimenting. Someone who enjoys working in a fast-paced environment where ideas turn into reality quickly. In our team, trust and ownership are key - I value people who take initiative, share their thoughts openly, and aren’t afraid to explore new directions. You’ll work with an amazing, tight-knit group that’s passionate about growth and impact.
