About the role

Evernote is a productivity tool with the goal of helping our users remember everything and accomplish anything. The Growth Activation team is tasked with demonstrating this value regardless of the use case that brought them to our product, and therefore getting them to keep coming back. This team takes a fast paced, metrics driven approach to shipping code. All of the work that we do is managed through experimentation, learning quantitatively in the wild how to move key metrics in New User Activation/Retention. Each team member regardless of role is plugged into the exact impact of the work that we are shipping. 

We are a creative, diverse, and analytical team, passionate about continuous learning around the “why” at the heart of our users sticking around. We value empathy for the customer experience, as well as a quantitative focus on driving business metrics. We work across all the applications that Evernote ships, writing code in React and React Native for our newly-rewritten desktop and mobile experiences.
