Mixpanel Engineering is a small, fast-moving team focused on delivering real value to customers. We build powerful AI-powered product analytics while obsessing over clarity, simplicity, and delight. Product innovation drives our business, and product engineering teams own that responsibility.
The Product Engineering org is responsible for building our core product that delivers insights to customers. These teams are defining the next phase of our AI-led product experiences and are uniquely positioned to build the next generation of AI-first products. We build the tools product managers rely on to understand users, protect revenue, and scale companies. As we move toward IPO, our work evolves from showing what happened to explaining why. This shift unlocks deeper insight, better decisions, and the next generation of analytics.
The Director of Engineering, reporting directly to the CTO, will be responsible for all of Product Engineering. You'll own the core analysis experience that product managers and engineers rely on daily, the growth infrastructure that brings new builders into the product and keeps them there, and the platform capabilities that let teams test and ship with confidence. Success is measured by revenue and retention.
AI is flooding software with output. Building is getting cheaper. Features are getting easier. The hard problem is knowing what actually works. We process trillions of events and petabytes of data daily, with over a decade of behavioral data to draw from. The work now is turning that foundation into something that tells you not just what happened, but why, and what to do about it. That's the problem this role works on.
