💻 RoleSeller Growth is responsible for growing sellers on Whatnot — enabling them to turn their hobbies into businesses. Within Seller Growth, the Platform pod ensures that this growth is sustainable, trustworthy, and scalable.
As our next software engineer on the Seller Growth Product pod, you will design and build the systems that sit at the heart of the new seller funnel. Your work will focus on:
Protecting the funnel from fraud and abuse: Developing and scaling systems for identity verification (IDV), fraud detection, and automated trust/risk reviews that safeguard buyers while minimizing friction for good sellers.
Ship seller-facing experiences: Deliver features across onboarding, education, and seller incentive flows — working across the full stack (backend and frontend).
Build platform intelligence: Develop seller enrichment pipelines and signals to route sellers to the right onboarding, incentive, and discovery paths.
Drive growth through experimentation: Design and analyze A/B tests to guide product decisions and accelerate seller success.
Create scalable infrastructure: Build and maintain data pipelines and growth systems (e.g., notifications, lifecycle triggers) that other pods and teams can leverage.
This pod works at the intersection of growth, trust, and platform-ization. You’ll be responsible for deeply technical systems (IDV, fraud signal repositories, seller enrichment pipelines, predictive models) that directly influence GMV, seller retention, and buyer trust. The pace is fast: every week, thousands of sellers apply to sell, and your work ensures that Whatnot can confidently scale this influx without compromising marketplace integrity.
