Growth Engineer (all genders) B2B SaaS for KMU

What this is about

From 100 to more than 900 customers in eight months, and still a small team. Internally we work in English because the team is international. The market is German.

Our growth team has more ideas than hands. There is a website that could do more, landing pages waiting to be built, tracking you cannot trust yet, and a lot of manual work in marketing and sales that nobody should have to do. This role is the technical hand in the growth team: the person who builds it, ships it and keeps it running.

You get problems, not tickets. When something is handed to you, it comes in the form “this is where it is stuck” and not “please build exactly this”. You design the way there. And you bring your own ideas: what you notice and what you think is right goes on the same list as everything else.

What you will do

• Website and landing pages: develop, build and ship them, including the interactive elements that set a page apart from a brochure
• Tracking, SEO and hosting: making sure the site is fast, gets found, and that the numbers behind it can be trusted
• Prototypes and automations: the fastest version that answers a question. Here a prototype is usually also an experiment, and you help read the result
• Tooling for growth and sales: for example Clay, Lemlist and whatever else is right at the moment. The guiding question: which manual work in this team should no longer exist?
• The bridge to the product: you sit in growth, but you also join the developers’ dailies. A lot of what marketing needs depends on the product, and the other way round

What it really looks like here

A lot is unfinished. In places our tracking cannot be trusted, and part of the first months is cleaning up before it becomes building. In return, the opposite of what you may be used to applies: no approval process, no pile of tickets, no waiting for another department. What you think is right, you can ship today.

What you bring

• You have shipped something yourself, not just built it locally. You know what a server looks like from the inside, what hosting means and where the difference between tinkering and shipping lies.
• You do not want to be only a developer. You are genuinely interested in marketing: you follow what happens in the market, have an opinion on the campaigns you come across, and want to understand why people buy, not just how to implement it technically.
• Curiosity about tools. You try new things before anyone asks you to, and you enjoy making other people’s work in the team easier.
• An eye for design. You can tell whether a page looks intentional, and you can say why a weak version is weak.
• AI is your normal state, not your side project. Without it, working would feel slow to you.
• Your own ideas. You do not wait for someone to tell you what to do, but you can also work with someone else’s priority without it bothering you.

Helpful, but not required

• Experience with HubSpot, GA4, GTM or comparable stacks
• Your own projects, a side product, a shop, a site that people actually use
• SEO beyond the basics

Not a fit

• You want pure development work and do not care about marketing
• You need finished tickets, reviews and a process before you start
• You have never shipped anything outside your own computer
• You would rather work on a clean solution for months than have one that works next week

The level we are hiring at

This is an entry to mid-level role, and we mean it: what counts for us is what you have already built and shipped, not how many years are behind it. You report to the Head of Growth.

We require German at C1 level or above and English at C1 level or above. Our market is German, our team language is English.

Salary

€65,000 to €100,000 depending on experience, plus stock options.

Three rounds: an intro conversation, a working session with a small task, and a final round with the founders. One meeting happens in person in Berlin, and you hear back from us within a week at every stage, even if the answer is no.

Why mika

• You ship yourself. No approval process, no other department in between: what you think is right is online today.
• A lot of untested surface. Almost everything you could touch has never been touched, and there is a budget behind it.
• Two worlds instead of one. You sit in growth and work with the developers. If you want to learn both, you will find few comparable roles.
• All AI licences are in place, and using them is expected, not tolerated.
• The work matters outside the office too. Every piece of automation means small businesses spend less time and money on paperwork they never chose.
• Berlin, hybrid, fully flexible working hours apart from the daily standup.

Sound like you?

Send us your CV and two things, nothing more:

1. Something you built and shipped. A link is enough. Add a short note on which part of it is yours and what you built it with.
2. One thing you would change about our website, after looking at it for twenty minutes.

We do not need a cover letter.

At mika, we value diversity and strive to create an inclusive environment where all employees can thrive. Join us in building the future of small business finance!
