Our mission at Sourcegraph is to make it so that everyone can code, not just ~0.1% of the population. Our code graph powers Cody, the most powerful and accurate AI coding assistant, as well as our Code Search product, which helps devs explore their entire codebase and make large-scale migrations and security fixes. We’re building software that builds software, and in doing so we’re making devs more productive and preparing for a world where a lot more code gets written.
It’s an exciting time to join Sourcegraph. AI has taken over the world, and we’ve spent the last 10 years building infrastructure that’s integral to making AI generated code more powerful and accurate. Our customers include 4/5 FAANG companies, 4 of the top 10 banks, government organizations, Uber, Plaid, and many other companies building the software that pushes the world forward. We’ve raised $225M at a $2.625B valuation from a16z, Sequoia, Redpoint, Craft and others. We’re making ambitious bets on our future and we’re looking to hire exceptional people to join our team as we make Sourcegraph one of the biggest and most influential companies in the world.
🌎 While we are an all-remote company and hire almost anywhere in the world, we have a preference for someone to reside in the following locations for this role. However, if you feel qualified, we welcome you to apply regardless of location. No matter what, working hours must overlap with 15:00-17:00 UTC for at least 3 days/week to make sure you can sync with most teammates when needed.

Our mission is to make coding accessible to everyone, and we're pioneering this journey with Cody, our AI coding assistant, at the helm. Traditionally sales-led, we’ve shifted gears towards a product-led growth (PLG) strategy for Cody just about six months ago—a move that has opened up exciting new frontiers for innovation and engagement.

Your work will directly influence the ease with which new users can integrate into our platform, shaping the future of Sourcegraph through Cody and our PLG strategy. This role is perfect for those who thrive in a dynamic, fast-paced environment, are eager to learn, and have a passion for making a real impact on the way the world codes.
Your curiosity, proactive nature, and willingness to dive into both front-end and back-end challenges will make you an invaluable asset to our team. With every line of code, you’ll be paving the way for the next generation of developers, ensuring they have the tools they need to succeed.
