The role
About Gusto
At Gusto, we're on a mission to grow the small business economy. We handle the hard stuff — payroll, health insurance, 401(k)s, and HR — so owners can focus on their craft and their customers. With teams in Denver, San Francisco, and New York, we support more than 500,000 small businesses nationwide and are building a workplace that reflects the people we serve.
All full-time employees receive competitive base pay, benefits, and equity (RSUs) — because everyone who helps build Gusto should share in its success. Offer amounts are determined by role, level, and location. Learn more about our Total Rewards philosophy .
AI is a fundamental part of how work gets done at Gusto. We expect all team members to actively engage with AI tools relevant to their role and grow their fluency as the technology evolves. AI experience requirements vary by role and will be assessed during the interview process.
About the Role:
Getting started on Gusto should feel effortless — the path from "I just signed up" to “my business is set up and running on Gusto” is where small business owners need us most, and where the biggest opportunity to grow the business lives. We're in the middle of the most exciting shift in Gusto's history: reimagining our product as a proactive AI teammate that doesn't just help small businesses, but does the work for them. Most of that opportunity is still ahead of us — which means this role is full of net-new, 0-to-1 problems to invent and build from the ground up. As a Senior Staff Product Engineer on Growth Onboarding, you'll own the experience that turns curious signups into activated, thriving customers — taking friction out of getting started and meeting customers wherever they are, from the web to SM
