Software Engineer, Developer Tools (Developer Experience) - Replit
About Replit
We're focusing on: building the world's most ubiquitous programming environment; inspiring creativity and generating value for creators through community; and designing simple yet scalable infrastructure primitives for the next generation of creators. We want to blur the line between learning and making– a place where you can hang out, tinker with ideas, learn new concepts, and launch a business all in the same day.
About the role
Your charter is to improve the daily lives of millions of coders using Replit. You’ll improve things like packaging, version control, build toolchains, editor features, debugging, and testing and get to rethink what this looks like for all 50+ coding languages available on Replit.
Examples of what you could do:
• Make Tensorflow install in a few seconds
• Make it easier to get started with web3 smart contracts
• Turn debugging into a multiplayer experience for Python, Java, Node, and C/C++
• Decrease Python Repl startup time by 100x
• Use the power of Nix to support an infinite number of languages and frameworks
You will…
• Make our flagship languages feature-complete (packager integration, debugger, autocomplete)
• Add new languages as soon as there is community interest
• Create Replit templates for common developer needs
• Develop in Replit’s Infrastructure using:
‣ Frontend: JavaScript, TypeScript, React, CodeMirror
‣ Backend: Go, Rust, PostgreSQL
You are…
• Someone who values simplicity and pragmatism (you think radically but ship incrementally)
• Experienced in building for other developers
• Self-directed and comfortable working autonomously
• Interested in and passionate about a variety of coding languages and frameworks
*Bonus Points*
• You love to experiment with (or even contribute to) new developer tools and frameworks
• You have experience with the Nix ecosystem
• You have managed a public-facing project (you have launched projects with real users)
• Experience building Platform/Infrastructure/Runtime as a Service
• Experience building IDEs, extensions, or developer frameworks
