what is growth engineering?<br>explaining my internship 📈

i’m currently interning as a growth engineer at browserbase. it’s a pretty fresh role, so i often get pretty puzzled or curious expressions in return.<br>it’s pretty much exactly what it sounds like. growth and engineering. still, what does that even mean?<br>i like to explain it like this: i’m not necessarily building the core product’s functionality. instead, i build funnels, features, and projects to get more eyes, sign ups, and recognition to a business or product.<br>this looks like building out use case templates, website fixes, iframes for the blog site, an internal agent to automate content audits, and way more. it’s super creative, so the possibilities for projects feel endless. in essence, if it’ll attract more users, build it.<br>i spent all day staring at code today. it was more fun than i imagined it being, since i was building something more whole, rather than one small ticket. it’s quicker gratification.<br>there’s also a bunch of pure growth stuff involved. i write blogs, ship design stuff, plan and execute on the ceo’s linkedin strategy, tap into some sales-y stuff and way more as well.<br>i get to own problems end-to-end, which means i have the really unique opportunity to have full ownership over projects and delegate to others, even as an intern.<br>the best way to describe it is like being a mini founder. except, i get a lot of mentorship, the freedom to be incredibly creative, and build meaningful relationships with intelligent and ambitious people.<br>i’m learning so much. give growth engineering a shout. :)
