About Polimorphic

Polimorphic is revolutionizing local and state government services through our AI-powered platform. We've built a comprehensive suite that includes a CRM, workflow, and case management systems, all connected by resident-facing tools. AI sits at the heart of our product. Our conversational AI Chatbot and Voice products give constituents 24/7 access to government, answering questions, handling requests, and simplifying complex processes. Our platform is making government services more responsive, equitable, and effective for millions of residents.

About the Role

We’re hiring our first Growth Engineer to unlock an entirely new distribution engine for Polimorphic: lightweight, intuitive tools that city and county staff can try instantly, love quickly, and that naturally lead them to deeper engagement with our core platform.

You’ll be responsible for rapidly prototyping, launching, and iterating on free or low-cost consumer-like products that staffers can adopt with zero friction, like micro-tools for internal workflows, public form builders, or communication aids, and weaving in clever mechanisms for virality, onboarding, lead generation, and demo requests.

You’ll be building for a unique context: municipal staff who are tech-curious but resource-constrained. We want these tools to be delightful, deceptively powerful, and ultimately sticky.

Why This Role Matters

This is a zero-to-one role. You’ll be defining what growth engineering means at Polimorphic. The tools you create may shape the first touchpoint hundreds of agencies have with our platform. You’ll help us reach new customers by building experiences that are genuinely useful, beautifully executed, and cleverly viral.

What You’ll Do

  • Own the design, build, and launch of high-velocity product experiments aimed at growth and pipeline generation.

  • Identify “entry point” products: bite-sized tools that provide immediate utility and impact to local government staff.

  • Collaborate closely with product, design, marketing, and other go-to-market teams to tie feature usage directly to demo funnels.

  • Build delightful UX experiences that don’t feel like traditional government software.

  • Engineer low-lift viral loops (e.g., shareable outputs, team invites, embedded widgets) into your products.

  • Collect feedback directly from users and iterate quickly.

  • Bring a scrappy, experimental mindset to product development, shipping fast and measuring what works.

What We’re Looking For

  • Based in NYC and available to work in person with our core team.

  • Strong software engineering background, ideally full-stack, but open to strength in either frontend or backend.

  • Prior experience building consumer tools or working in a growth engineering role at a startup.

  • Track record of launching and growing products through experimentation and iteration.

  • Obsession with user behavior: how people adopt, engage with, and share products.

  • Ability to think from first principles: how do you get someone to click, use, and invite others?

  • A deep curiosity about how local government works and how software can make staffers' lives easier.

  • Passion for technology that makes a difference — experience with or interest in local government is a big plus.

Our Stack

We build with React/Typescript and Django/Python — but you don’t need prior experience in either. More important is your ability to learn fast, prototype quickly, and launch high-quality work.

Compensation & Benefits

  • Competitive startup salary + equity

  • Health and dental insurance

  • 401(k) access

  • Room to grow with the company

Join us to build software that brings delightful, AI-powered tools to the public sector and helps staffers everywhere fall in love with better government tech.
