Responsibilities
- Set technical direction: Drive system design decisions around data modeling, performance, correctness, and reliability. Identify scaling bottlenecks before they become problems.
- Build for durability and scale: Ensure our systems are performant, observable, secure, and resilient under real-world production load across infrastructure (e.g., Vercel, AWS, Turbopuffer).
- Mentor motivated engineers: Developing people is as important as developing software. From in-depth code reviews to high-level architectural discussions, you'll help elevate the skills and impact of those around you.
- Collaborate across the stack: Partner closely with product designers, backend, and frontend engineers working in TypeScript and Next.js to define polished interfaces and slick user experiences.
Requirements
- 8+ years of professional software engineering experience.
- We’re building open source and we care deeply about taste — we’re looking for builders that know developer experience is a craft.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills to solve technical problems with customers.
- Bonus: Experience building with TypeScript.
