About Mixpanel

Over 9,000 paid customers, including companies like Netflix, Pinterest, Sweetgreen, and Samsara, use Mixpanel to understand their customers and measure progress. Our commitment is to provide the most comprehensive and reliable analytics platform accessible and trusted by all.

About the Role

Session Replay is one of Mixpanel's fastest-growing product areas, giving our customers powerful visibility into user behavior by letting them watch how people actually interact with their products. Our team builds full stack experiences that help customers debug, optimize, and deeply understand user journeys, from capturing rage clicks and console errors to building heatmaps and cross-page replay stitching.

As a Full Stack Engineer on the Session Replay team, you'll work across the stack to deliver high-impact, user-facing products. You'll collaborate closely with teammates in engineering, product, design, and go-to-market to iterate quickly and push the boundaries of what's possible in behavioral analytics. Our ideal candidate is someone excited to balance frontend polish with backend robustness, and who isn't afraid of diving into ambiguity, exploring technical trade-offs, or owning a project end to end.

You'll get to work in a fast-paced, product-led environment where your work directly impacts thousands of customers — and millions of users.

Responsibilities

• A typical project requires working across our stack, creating endpoints for your feature as well as developing and deploying the UI.
• Build and ship customer-facing web application features for Session Replay and related experiences.

• Collaborate with Product, Design, and GTM partners to define and deliver high-quality solutions.
• Lead projects from idea through launch, including monitoring and follow-up.
• Drive business impact while maintaining technical excellence.
• Navigate trade-offs between product scope, speed, performance, and maintainability.
• (Bonus) Explore and learn about application deployment, observability, and production readiness.

What We're Looking For Someone Who Has

• Proven ability to own problems end-to-end and ship customer value.
• Comfortable working across the stack — from backend services to polished frontend UIs.
• Bonus: Curiosity around DevOps, deployment, and production engineering.
