About the team

The Evernote Growth Team has the mission to delight and help our customers engage with our best-in-class note taking app. In this highly versatile role, your day-to-day work will directly impact large areas of the product and challenge your technical expertise as well as leadership experience as you manage development across our front-end Web clients, back-end micro-services, and messaging tools. Our mission spans across improving user experience – from initial awareness and on-boarding, to day-to-day usage and support by conducting experiments and using insights from data to drive our decisions.

We are a creative, diverse, and analytical team, passionate about continuous learning around our customers’ behaviors. We value empathy for the customer experience, as well as a quantitative focus on driving business metrics.

Our tools empower us to move fast and dive deep – building and deploying tests to anticipate and rapidly respond to our customer’s needs. We measure in days, not weeks, and monitor our experiments’ results in real-time.
