About Us
Our client is building an intelligent code discovery platform that gives developers the best tools to discover code in any form and be more productive. We are transforming code search to improve the practice of modern programming—taking a graph-based approach using data from the entire open source ecosystem. We’re on a mission to build the world’s best code discovery engine. The company is funded by top investors in Silicon Valley, including the first investors of Google, Twitter, Zoom, LinkedIn, and Uber. Our team has backgrounds from NASA, LinkedIn, Facebook, Amazon, AWS, Cisco and MIT, Harvard, Stanford, and Berkeley. Our company is based in San Francisco, California, but our team is all remote and globally distributed.
Description
We are seeking a Full Stack Engineer to lead technology development on the frontier of code discovery and developer productivity. A successful applicant is an expert in application development to address complex challenges that span natural language, code syntax and networks. You will help our team design, test and rapidly iterate on multiple products and services stemming from our core technology. You will develop prototypes, tools, and methods that inform decision-making for software developers (e.g. “Is this the right solution to my coding problem?” or “How do I implement this specific code in my application?” or “What code libraries are other developers using to solve my problem?”).
Who Will Love This Job
The ideal candidate is excited to lead the direction of our technology and product development. You are an explorer, looking to help developers discover code in any form and improve their productivity. You are passionate about using machine learning to empower better software development. You could ship an entire web application if you wanted to, but prefer working with others.
