Why Harvey
At Harvey, we’re transforming how legal and professional services operate. By combining frontier agentic AI, an enterprise-grade platform, and deep domain expertise, we’re reshaping how critical knowledge work gets done for decades to come. This is a rare chance to help build a generational company at a true inflection point. With 1500+ customers in 60+ countries, strong product-market fit, and world-class investor support, we’re scaling fast and defining a new category in real time. The work is ambitious, the bar is high, and the opportunity for growth — personal, professional, and financial — is unmatched. Our team moves fast, takes ownership, and is deeply committed to the mission — operating with intensity, staying close to our customers, and pushing each other for excellence. We live by three values: Decisiveness, Simplicity, and Job's Not Finished. We act quickly on clear judgment over perfect information, we believe simplicity is what scales, and we're never satisfied with where we are. If you want to do the best work of your career alongside people who share that drive, we'd love to build with you. At Harvey, the future of professional services is being written today — and we’re just getting started.
Role Overview
Harvey is looking for a Growth Product Lead to own and drive the product-led growth strategy for our AI platform. This is a foundational role - the first dedicated growth product hire at Harvey - and an opportunity to define how we acquire, activate, and expand users across the world's leading law firms, in-house legal teams, and professional services organizations. You will sit at the intersection of Product, Marketing, and GTM, combining deep product thinking with a data-driven experimentation mindset to unlock new levers for growth. Reporting to the VP of Product, you will work cross-functionally with Engineering, Design, Marketing, Sales, and Customer Success to build the systems, features, and experiences that accelerate Harvey's trajectory.
- Define and own Harvey's product-led growth strategy, identifying the highest-impact opportunities across the user lifecycle — from acquisition and activation to engagement, retention, and expansion.
- Build and run a rigorous experimentation program: develop hypotheses, design A/B tests, and iterate quickly based on data to optimize key growth metrics (e.g., activation rate, time-to-value, feature adoption, expansion revenue).
- Partner closely with Engineering and Design to ship growth-oriented product features — including onboarding flows, in-product nudges, self-serve capabilities, and viral loops — at the pace Harvey operates.
- Collaborate with Marketing (Demand Gen, Lifecycle, Performance Marketing) to connect top-of-funnel acquisition efforts to in-product activation and conversion.
- Work with Sales and Customer Success to understand enterprise adoption patterns, identify product-driven expansion opportunities, and reduce friction in the customer journey.
- Define, instrument, and monitor growth KPIs; build dashboards and reporting to give the business clear visibility into growth performance.
- Inform pricing, packaging, and self-serve strategy in partnership with GTM leadership.
- Champion a culture of experimentation and data-informed decision-making across teams.
What You Have
- 8+ years of product management experience, with at least 3 years focused on growth, product-led growth (PLG), or growth engineering at a high-growth B2B SaaS company.
- Proven track record of driving measurable growth outcomes — you have shipped experiments and features that moved key business metrics (activation, retention, expansion, revenue).
- Deep fluency in growth analytics: you are comfortable with SQL, product analytics tools (Amplitude, Mixpanel, or similar), and building data narratives that drive decisions.
- Strong product sense — you can identify high-leverage opportunities, scope MVPs, and ship quickly without sacrificing quality.
- Excellent cross-functional collaboration skills, with experience partnering across Engineering, Design, Marketing, Sales, and Customer Success.
- Startup or high-growth experience — you thrive in ambiguity, move fast, and are comfortable building from zero.
- Passion for AI and its potential to transform professional services.
Nice to Have
- Experience with enterprise or sales-assisted PLG motions (not purely self-serve consumer growth).
- Familiarity with legal technology, professional services, or vertical SaaS.
- Experience building self-serve onboarding or trial experiences in B2B.

Growth Lead Jobs in California: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a growth lead in California?
Growth lead roles in California do not require a state-issued license or exam. Most employers expect a background in marketing, product, or data analytics, typically supported by a bachelor's degree in a quantitative or business discipline. California's competitive market rewards candidates who can demonstrate hands-on experimentation experience, fluency with analytics tools, and a measurable record of influencing user acquisition or retention at a California-based or remote-first technology company.
Which companies hire growth leads in California?
Employers hiring growth leads in California right now include Apple, OpenAI, and Rippling, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of June 2026. California's concentration of SaaS, fintech, and consumer technology companies means growth lead openings are distributed across both large enterprise employers and high-growth startups, particularly those headquartered in the Bay Area and Los Angeles.
Which California cities have the most growth lead jobs?
San Francisco, Culver City, and Los Angeles have the most growth lead openings in California. San Francisco and its surrounding Bay Area dominate because of the dense concentration of technology and SaaS headquarters there, while Los Angeles draws openings from consumer brands, media technology, and fintech companies, and San Diego contributes through its growing cluster of biotech-adjacent SaaS and healthtech employers.
Are there remote growth lead jobs in California?
Yes, and more than most fields. Growth lead work is analytical and collaborative rather than location-dependent, making it well suited to remote and hybrid arrangements. About 28% of growth lead openings tied to California are remote or hybrid as of June 2026, reflecting how broadly California technology employers have adopted flexible work policies. Experimentation, lifecycle strategy, and analytics-heavy sub-roles tend to be the most remote-friendly.
How can I get hired as a growth lead in California with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is moving into a growth associate or junior growth analyst role at a California-based technology or SaaS company. Large employers in the Bay Area and Los Angeles regularly hire from adjacent roles such as marketing coordinator, data analyst, or product analyst. Building a portfolio of self-directed experiments, contributing to open-source growth projects, or completing a structured growth marketing program strengthens a candidacy significantly. Proficiency in SQL and at least one analytics platform is the credential that most consistently opens the door without prior growth-specific titles.
