At Quince, you will be part of a high-performing team that is redefining what quality, value, and sustainability mean in modern retail. We are a destination for builders, innovators, and operators to come together and challenge the status quo. Our collective ambition is bold.

That mission demands a world‑class team committed to excellence.

If you are motivated by impact, growth, and purpose, you will find a strong sense of belonging at Quince.

The ideal candidate is a deeply technical growth engineer who combines hands‑on execution with system‑level thinking. You have built and operated production‑grade marketing automation systems at scale – from campaign management pipelines and ads bidding infrastructure to creative generation tooling and experimentation frameworks – and you take pride in engineering platforms that drive measurable business outcomes.

You are the kind of engineer who gravitates toward the hardest problems at the intersection of technology and performance marketing: designing a low‑latency bidding optimization engine, building a reliable creative generation pipeline, or defining the architectural patterns that will shape how Quince scales its growth stack. You operate with high autonomy, hold yourself to exceptional standards, and naturally raise the bar for the engineers around you through rigorous code reviews, sharp technical judgment, and a bias toward clean, durable solutions over quick fixes.

• Own business critical end‑to‑end efforts on performance marketing initiatives, working closely with the marketing, product, data science and analytics teams to deliver high‑quality and high‑performance tooling and systems.
• Drive technical design and architecture for growth engineering systems, including campaign management, ads bidding optimization, and creative generation pipelines.
• Collaborate across other engineering teams and the data science org to understand and implement business requirements.
• Partner with stakeholders to define and refine requirements, ensuring they are translated into actionable tasks and milestones.
• Define performance metrics and drive data‑driven decisions across the growth stack.
• Identify and resolve systemic engineering gaps – reliability risks, performance bottlenecks, and scaling constraints – proactively.
• Drive a code review culture and contribute to the development of architecture and design, and help identify and resolve performance issues.
• Drive alignment with leadership and team members along with your management…
