About Bloom
Bloom is a YC-backed startup making app creation as easy as talking into your phone. We’re building the first mobile AI editor that empowers anyone to design, build, and launch full-stack apps directly from their device.
We're now entering a new growth phase and are looking for a Founding Systems & Growth Engineer — a technical builder who can architect the infrastructure that powers our growth engine while establishing the operational backbone that scales with us
You'll work closely with the founders and a consumer-focused counterpart to build the systems, automation, and analytics that drive decision-making across the company.
🎯 Mission
Design and scale Bloom’s technical growth engine, building the internal systems, automations, and data infrastructure that power our next stage of growth.
🚀 Responsibilities
1. Systems & Infrastructure
Own the backbone of Bloom’s internal operations and ensure our company scales efficiently.
Responsibilities:
- Maintain financial hygiene and vendor management, and build models that forecast burn, revenue, and runway ahead of our 2026 Series A.
- Establish robust technical infrastructure for internal tools, data flow, and reporting systems.
- Automate manual operational processes — from user onboarding logic to CRM and support tools — to enhance company-wide efficiency.
- Prototype internal MVPs that streamline business workflows and bridge the gap between strategy and engineering.
- Collaborate closely with founders to shape the financial and operational systems that underlie Bloom’s next phase.
2. Growth Engineering/GTM Ops
Build and maintain the technical foundation of Bloom’s go-to-market motion and user insights engine.
Responsibilities:
- Architect and implement automations that drive acquisition, activation, and retention.
- Set up end-to-end data pipelines and dashboards that track performance across key growth metrics.
- Instrument product analytics, event tracking, and behavioral funnels to understand user engagement.
- Develop scalable infrastructure for community success — configuring CRM and support bots, streamlining communication loops, and integrating feedback data.
- Partner with the brand and comms lead to test and refine PLG experiments that connect our product with our user base.
🧩 Profile
You’re a technical generalist who thrives at the edge of product, data, and growth. You love building systems that scale both the product and the business.
You might be a fit if you:
- Have 3+ years of experience in technical operations, growth engineering, or data systems (startup experience preferred).
- Are fluent in SQL and one scripting language (Python, TypeScript, etc).
- Have experience connecting APIs, automating workflows, or building internal tools with no-code/low-code frameworks.
- Enjoy translating messy business problems into elegant technical solutions.
- Are data-driven, curious, and highly autonomous.
- Prefer speed and experimentation over perfection — prototype first, polish later.
Bonus points:
- You’ve built growth automations or integrated systems in startups before.
- You’re comfortable working cross-functionally with founders, growth, and design.
- You’ve used tools like Notion, Airtable, Retool, or dbt for building internal systems.
- You’ve contributed to or built analytics stacks or internal growth infrastructure.
How to apply:
- Tell us why this role speaks to you, in whichever format you feel more comfortable with (text, video, letter, a Bloom, carrier pigeon: surprise us)
- Share something you’ve built, shipped, or led. No need to be humble about things you are proud of.
- Link to your socials (X, LinkedIn, website, whatever shows off your vibe)
