Senior Software Engineer (Experiment)

  2026-05-13     Amplitude     San Francisco,CA  
Description:

Experiment is one of the fastest-growing and most strategic bets at Amplitude. It sits at the intersection of product, data, and decision-making, and we're looking for a Senior Product Engineer to help take it to the next level.

Why this role matters

This isn't a “take tickets and ship code” role. You'll operate as an owner, shaping both the product and the technical direction of a system used by some of the most sophisticated product teams in the world.

You'll work across the stack, React frontend, Node.js and Python backend, to build intuitive, high-performance experiences that make experimentation accessible, powerful, and trustworthy.

What you'll do

  • Own critical product surfaces end-to-end from ideation to production and beyond
  • Drive product direction in partnership with design and product leaders
  • Build and evolve systems across React, Node.js, and Python that scale with customer growth
  • Leverage modern AI tooling to dramatically accelerate development, prototyping, and iteration cycles
  • Raise the bar for engineering quality - code, architecture, and user experience
  • Lead by example - through hands‑on development, technical mentorship, and thoughtful decision‑making
  • Move fast on ambiguous problems, turning ideas into shipped, customer‑facing value

What we're looking for

  • 5+ years of experience in software engineering
  • Education: B.S. in Computer Science or an equivalent technical field
  • Proven experience operating at a senior‑level scope. You've led large, ambiguous initiatives with significant business impact
  • Strong full‑stack expertise (React + backend systems such as Node.js and/or Python)
  • A deep sense of ownership - you don't wait for direction; you create it
  • Exceptional product taste - you care deeply about UX, details, and building things people love
  • An AI‑native mindset - you actively use and experiment with the latest AI tools to amplify your impact and rethink how software gets built
  • Ability to balance speed and quality in a high‑velocity environment
  • Strong judgment in technical trade‑offs and system design

What sets you apart

  • You think like a product builder first, engineer second
  • You're constantly reinventing how you work, using cutting‑edge tools and workflows to achieve outsized results
  • You're energized by open‑ended problems with no clear “right” answer
  • You hold a high bar, not just for your own work, but for the team and product as a whole
  • You turn ambiguity into clarity and momentum

Why Amplitude

  • Work on a product used by thousands of companies to make better decisions
  • Be part of a team that's expanding beyond analytics into a full digital optimization platform
  • Join a culture that values ownership, velocity, and craft
  • Have outsized impact on a top company priority
