At WunderGraph, we’ve nearly tripled our team in under a year. With that growth came the need for a clear career framework to keep hiring fair, growth conversations meaningful, and pay benchmarks consistent for a global team.
Our Engineering Growth Framework is built around impact—not just what you ship, but how you work and who benefits. It focuses on three areas:
1. Engineering Excellence
– technical skills, ownership, and problem-solving
2. Partnering with Others
– collaboration and knowledge sharing
3. WunderGraph Culture
– living our values and ways of working
It supports two equal tracks—Individual Contributor and Management—with clear steps for progression in both. We already use it in hiring, onboarding, 1:1s, and performance reviews.
The framework is version 1 and will evolve with feedback. Senior roles like Staff and Principal Engineer are calibrated for both technical leadership and strategic alignment.
We’re hiring engineers who want to grow in an environment built on clarity and impact.
