The growth team is a small group of cross-functional people who are never satisfied that Mozilla has done their best. We question norms, expose opportunities, and are data driven to improve experiences that resonate with our target audience that ultimately further Mozilla's [http://www.mozilla.org/mission/ mission]. Our immediate focus will be short-term A/B tests and changes to our acquisition funnels and product experiences to drive Firefox growth.
The growth team is a group of Mozillians who evaluate the current state of Firefox's user experiences, develop hypotheses, and execute on scientific test plans to determine if possible quantitative opportunities lead to positive growth of Firefox's active user base. We have core members who lead specific focus areas and then supporting cross-functional members who bring insights and expertise on all experiences across Firefox desktop and mobile. We also work with user research teams to perform qualitative research to help better understand the "why" in user behaviors and provide balance to the the quantitative insights.

# Create a hypothesis based on an identified bottleneck or constraint
# Prioritize backlog of tests
# Perform test
# Identify and communicate key learnings and define next steps
# Repeat

Who are we?

The growth team is a group of Mozillians who evaluate the current state of Firefox's user experiences, develop hypotheses, and execute on scientific test plans to determine if possible quantitative opportunities lead to positive growth of Firefox's active user base. We have core members who lead specific focus areas and then supporting cross-functional members who bring insights and expertise on all experiences across Firefox desktop and mobile. We also work with user research teams to perform qualitative research to help better understand the "why" in user behaviors and provide balance to the the quantitative insights.

Focus areas

We are focused on the 5 growth metrics across Firefox desktop, mobile, services and apps.

  • Acquisition (acquiring new users)
  • Activation (having a great initial user experiences)
  • Retention (users staying engaged and happy over time)
  • Referral (happy users telling non users to try Firefox)
  • Revenue (sustainability and diversification)

What we do

  • Analyze web and product metrics and analytics to uncover new insights.
  • Develop hypotheses potential opportunities on any of the 5 growth metrics
  • Develop test plans & create prototypes to upcoming experiments
  • Run scientific tests & analyze results
  • Apply learnings to user experiences and future engineering roadmaps
  • Share learnings and work cross-functional on prioritization and process
