đź’Ş Small, Profitable, and Freshly Funded
The most enduring products—Canva, Figma, Notion—took years to get right. We’ve taken the same path: stayed lean, grew through a passionate community, and tackled the hard technical problems others skipped.
Now we’ve raised $8M+ from top-tier investors with the capital and conviction to swing big. You’ll join as one of our first engineers, with real ownership and a direct hand in shaping the product and culture from the ground up.
❤️ Customer Love
Butter powers over 17,000+ brands, creators, and agencies and we've grown purely through word of mouth. People don’t just try Butter – they use it daily and tell people about it. You'll be joining as we enter our next stage of growth.
đź’¨ A Team That Ships
We care deeply about the product experience and release weekly. We bring decades of experience building at Figma, Headspace, Meta, and Cruise. Now we’re focused on one thing: redefining what creative software can be.
🙌 World-Class Mentors
We’re backed by founders and leaders from OpenAI, Anthropic, Shopify, Notion, Airtable, and The Browser Company. They’ve built the products we admire most and now they’re helping us build ours.
As our Head of Product Growth, you’ll build the engine that powers Butter’s scalable growth.
You’ll work directly with Design and Engineering to improve activation, retention, and monetization. Your job is to make Butter easier to understand, shorten time to value, and turn usage into sharing.
You’ll own onboarding, activation, invite loops, friction, churn diagnostics, and the experimentation roadmap. You'll be our first product growth hire with plans to grow the team as we scale, but we need someone super comfortable with being a builder now, someone great at building processes from the ground up, to set us up for success as we grow.
If you think in experiments, measure everything, and obsess over why users stall or churn, this role is for you.
Activation rate
Time-to-first value
Retention curves
In-product loops
Growth modeling tied to revenue
Define and instrument the core “aha” moment.
Identify friction in onboarding and core workflows.
Run structured experiments weekly.
Partner with design and engineering to ship improvements.
Analyze cohorts and behavioral segments.
Model LTV and help set CAC guardrails.
Build a growth roadmap based on constraints, not opinions.
You have 5+ years in growth at a product-led company
You’ve improved retention, not just top-of-funnel growth
You have strong with data (Amplitude/Mixpanel; SQL is a plus)
You are comfortable influencing and championing product decisions
You are a clear thinker, who moves quickly and is comfortable with failing often
Butter is a well-funded, ambitious team rethinking what creative tools can be. We’re remote-first and distributed, with optional offices in Los Angeles and Toronto. If this sounds like your kind of challenge, we’d love to hear from you.

About Us Hi, we’re Butter 👋 the Lego set for modern video and motion graphics. We started with a simple question: Why does making videos still feel so painful? Most tools are either too complex or too limiting. And while AI makes some things faster, it also takes something away — control, originality, humanity. Butter takes a different approach. It makes video creation fast, playful, and modular, like building with Legos. You can edit, remix, and evolve your work endlessly instead of being stuck with rigid templates or one-off AI outputs. Today, Butter powers video creation for thousands of brands including Crocs, Netflix, and Pinterest, and artists like Blackpink and Future. We’re a small team of builders, creatives, and engineers obsessed with craft and focused on shaping the next generation of tools to unlock more human creativity. 🗺️ Full-Remote 💪 Join Butter as one of the core members of the team! 🔥 Butter already powers thousands of businesses , and you’ll play a key role in shaping our next phase of growth.
