1. Senior Engineer – Growth Marketing
Specifications: Full Time | Remote
Eligibility: All Countries
Location: US | Remote.
Category: Tech
Benefits: $146.5K USD | laptop + $1000 home Office Setup | Profit Sharing
Description:
We’re looking for a Senior Frontend Engineer to join our Growth Marketing team. This is a hands-on engineering role building the web experiences and systems that help Buffer grow.
The work spans building features and pages across buffer.com – interactive tools, benchmarks, referral systems, conversion flows – along with the technical implementation behind them: integrations with marketing tools, analytics and tracking systems, SEO implementations, and backend logic that powers our marketing features.
We need someone who’s comfortable across the full frontend scope – strong with React and modern web development, but also capable of diving into backend logic, connecting third-party APIs, debugging tracking pipelines, and figuring out what they don’t know.
You’ll collaborate closely with Simon (Director of Marketing), David (Senior Design Engineer), and Kate (Senior Designer). The team values pace and iteration — we ship quickly, learn from real usage, and improve as we go. But we also care about craft — noticing the UX details and maintaining standards while keeping momentum.
What you’ll doLead growth engineering projects, like implementing a localization framework to support international audiences, building referral program logic and attribution systems, rebuilding our tracking implementation to improve accuracy and reliability. You’ll own projects from concept to launch, working closely with marketing, design, and other engineers.
Build features on Buffer’s marketing site — ship landing pages, interactive tools, and conversion flows that help people discover and try Buffer. Create benchmarks, calculators, and utility content that educate users and drive engagement.
Shape marketing platform capabilities by building systems and frameworks that let the team move faster. Create A/B testing infrastructure, develop programmatic page generation for SEO/AEO, implement content management patterns, and build reusable components that make future projects easier to ship.
Drive experimentation and optimization — implement A/B tests, optimize conversion funnels, and help the team learn faster through code. Set up experiments, validate results, and iterate based on what we learn. Balance moving quickly with maintaining quality.
Improve foundations by maintaining integrations with our marketing technology stack (Segment, GTM, Mixpanel, BigQuery), upgrading dependencies, optimizing performance, and ensuring accessibility. You’ll also participate in our on-call rotation and contribute to ongoing system health — fixing bugs, addressing security vulnerabilities, and other improvements that keep buffer.com running smoothly.
Contribute to shaping engineering culture by pairing with other engineers, reviewing code, sharing knowledge about growth systems and marketing engineering patterns, and helping level up how we approach frontend work at Buffer.
Qualifications and Requirements:
- You have strong frontend foundations — solid experience with React, TypeScript, and modern web development. Our site runs on Next.js, but we value adaptability and curiosity over specific stack experience.
- You’re comfortable working across the stack when needed — writing backend logic, building API routes, getting data from various external systems, and connecting third-party integrations together.
- You’ve worked with marketing or growth teams and are comfortable with SEO, analytics, A/B testing, and conversion optimization. You’ve likely built referral systems, programmatic pages, or conversion funnels, and you know how to set up tracking, validate implementations, and measure impact accurately.
- You’re comfortable navigating ambiguity and thinking in systems — you bring clarity and ask good questions to move ideas forward even when requirements aren’t fully defined. You look at the full system, understanding how different technologies and goals connect, and build things that can scale and improve holistically rather than just solving point problems.
- You have a personal stake in the world of content creation, maybe you’ve run a newsletter, built an audience on social media, or regularly share your own work online. You’ve used Buffer before and care about the experience of planning, creating, and publishing content.
- You balance craft with pace — you ship quickly and learn from real usage, but you also care about quality. You notice UX details, maintain accessibility standards, think about performance, and understand when to polish versus when to iterate.
- You thrive in remote, async environments — you communicate clearly, support your teammates, and don’t wait for permission to make progress. You work effectively across marketing, design, and engineering, and can explain technical decisions to non-technical stakeholders.
- You’re fluent with AI tools and use them to work with more leverage and improve your efficiency. Bonus points if you’ve also integrated AI into user-facing marketing features at scale (like generating personalized content, automating asset creation, or building intelligent systems).
- You’ve likely been doing this for at least 5+ years, but depth of experience and impact matter more than a specific number of years.
- Our tech stackWe use Next.js v15+ with React and TypeScript for buffer.com (currently using Pages router, planning to migrate to App router). We use Express middleware for some routing (planning to migrate to Next.js middleware).
- Styling with CSS Modules and Motion for animations, and use Radix UI and Base UI for accessible components (gradually migrating to Base UI as it evolves) and data visualizations using Recharts.
- Our marketing technology stack includes Segment, Google Tag Manager, Mixpanel, and BigQuery for tracking and analytics.
- We pull content and data from Ghost CMS (blog), Redash, Notion, Google Sheets, and various external APIs.
- Competitive salary: Our salary formula adjusts to your cost of living and experience. For this role, the range is $118.1K – $146.5K USD.
- Work remotely: Live and work wherever you are the happiest and most productive. Meet our team here
- 4-Day workweeks: Our schedule is four workdays, with a flexible, meeting-free fifth day for overflow tasks or personal time as you see fit.
- Health insurance: We offer health insurance for all of our team members, international and US.
- Home office setup: Get a laptop + $1000 to set up your home office!
- Minimum vacation: We ask teammates to take at least 3 weeks per year.
- Unlimited Free books: Get a free Kindle Paperwhite for yourself and a partner, and all the Kindle and audio books you like, no questions asked.
- ‘Growth mindset’ fund: Extra money each year for learning and development.
- Savings plan: With 3% company match.
- Profit sharing: When the company does well, all team members share the profits.
- Family leave: 16 weeks of family leave for all new parents, fully paid.
- Family support fund: A stipend for each kiddo.
- Sabbaticals: Take a 6-week break, fully paid, after every 5 years with Buffer.
2. Senior Design Engineer
Specifications: Full Time | Remote
Eligibility: All Countries
Location: US | Remote.
Category: Tech
Benefits: $202.3K USD | laptop + $1000 home Office Setup | Profit Sharing
Description:
We’re looking for a Senior Design Engineer to join Buffer’s Marketing team. You’ll be the engineer closest to how Buffer looks and feels on the web — owning our front-end design system, building performant components, and crafting the interactions and animations that bring our pages to life. This is a small, agile team where members are trusted to manage their own time, and where you’ll work across brand, product marketing, and growth projects.
Buffer recently went through a significant brand redesign, and now we want to scale it. That means pushing our attention to design detail and craft further, improving site performance and accessibility, and creating the kind of consumer-grade web experiences that make people stop and notice. Our marketing site is the window into everything we’re building, and as Buffer grows (both in the creators and small teams we serve, and in the product itself), we want the site to reflect that energy and ambition.
You’ll work closely with marketing leadership, our UX designer, and customer advocates to understand what our visitors need and figure out the best way to build it. You’ll write and ship high-quality, tested code, and contribute to front-end engineering standards that raise the bar for consistency and quality across our marketing codebases. Working at Buffer is collaborative and positive thanks to our core values. We try to be “No Ego Doers” who are aware of our assumptions, and joining us means you’ll work together as a team to test and confirm our ideas.
Who you’ll work with
This role reports to Kateryna Porshnieva, Head of Engineering Operations, and sits on the Marketing team. You’ll collaborate on a variety of Brand and Product Marketing projects with the full Marketing team, partnering closely with Simon Heaton, Director of Growth Marketing, and Hailley Griffis, Head of Communications and Content.
You’ll work day-to-day with most of the team, in particular Kate Baldrey, our Marketing UX Designer, to build web experiences that help people learn about and sign up for Buffer
What you’ll doBuild polished, interactive web experiences for buffer.com – product launch pages, brand storytelling, landing pages, and marketing tools – in close collaboration with Kate (UX Design) and the wider marketing team.
Bring pages to life with thoughtful animations and interactions using Motion, CSS animations, or whatever approach fits. We want buffer.com to feel as good as our product, and you’ll be the person making that happen.
Evolve and maintain Buffer’s design system and component library – improving consistency, filling gaps, and refining patterns so the whole team can ship high-quality pages without starting from scratch each time.
Improve accessibility and performance across buffer.com through ongoing iteration – auditing what’s there, fixing what needs fixing, and raising the standards over time so every visitor has a great experience.
Help shape how we work by pairing with engineers, reviewing code, and sharing what you know about front-end architecture, design systems, and accessibility patterns.
Qualifications and Requirements:
- We’d love to see examples of your work – whether that’s a portfolio, a personal site, open source contributions, or anything else that shows how you think about interaction quality, visual detail, and front-end craft. We’re especially interested in animation work, component systems, or projects where you owned the implementation.
- You’re a strong front-end engineer with solid experience in React and TypeScript. Our site runs on Next.js, but we care more about your depth of understanding and willingness to learn than matching our exact stack. Experience with Next.js App Router, SSR/ISR patterns, or Edge functions is a plus.
- You have hands-on experience with front-end animation – whether through Motion, CSS animations, or your own creative approach – and you’ve worked with design systems and component libraries. We’re not starting from scratch here, so we’re looking for someone who’s good at improving and evolving existing systems, not just building new ones.
- You care about the details that make a web experience feel right: accessibility, performance, clean code, thoughtful trade-offs. You also know when something is good enough to ship and learn from.
- You think like a designer, not just an engineer. You have a strong sense of visual hierarchy, spacing, typography, and how users move through a page. You notice when something is technically correct but doesn’t feel right – and you have opinions about how to fix it. You don’t need a pixel-perfect spec for every state; you can make good UX decisions in code because you understand the intent behind the design.
- You’re comfortable navigating ambiguity and thinking in systems — you bring clarity and ask good questions to move ideas forward even when requirements aren’t fully defined. You look at the full system, understanding how different technologies and goals connect, and build things that can scale and improve holistically.
- You thrive in remote, async environments — you communicate clearly, support your teammates, and don’t wait for permission to make progress. You work effectively across marketing, design, and engineering, and can explain technical decisions to non-technical stakeholders.

- We pull content and data from Ghost CMS (blog), Redash, Notion, Google Sheets, and various external APIs.
- Competitive salary: Our salary formula adjusts to your cost of living and experience. For this role, the range is $156.5K – $202.3K USD.
- Work remotely: Live and work wherever you are the happiest and most productive. Meet our team here
- 4-Day workweeks: Our schedule is four workdays, with a flexible, meeting-free fifth day for overflow tasks or personal time as you see fit.
