Senior Engineering Manager Growth

Kraken

The Growth teams bring new users into the Kraken ecosystem and help them take their first step with confidence. We design and ship the entry points to Kraken across our website and mobile apps, including marketing surfaces, landing pages, and signup flows that turn curiosity into momentum. Our mission is to attract, engage, and inspire trust through every first interaction, guiding users to value quickly, safely, and with confidence.

The Growth teams shape how millions of people first experience Kraken and why they come back. Every visit, message, and interaction builds trust or curiosity. You will lead the engineers who make those first and returning experiences matter, turning awareness into engagement and engagement into lasting connection.

As the Senior Engineering Manager, you will lead multiple teams responsible for attracting users, earning their trust, and keeping them engaged, even before they sign up. You will partner closely with Design, Product, Analytics, and Marketing to build data-informed, engaging experiences that spark curiosity and drive return visits.

You will oversee acquisition and engagement efforts across Kraken s website and mobile signup experiences, helping your teams balance quick iteration with sustainable technical foundations. The work spans landing experiences, reusable components for our content platform, and ongoing experimentation to optimize visibility, conversion, and user engagement. You will also play a key role in expanding our reach through search engine optimization (SEO) and new discovery channels such as ChatGPT and other emerging AI-driven platforms. You bring a strong technical presence able to dive into architectural discussions, review code, and model engineering excellence while guiding teams at scale.
