Software Engineer, API Platform
Convex, San Francisco
About the job
Convex is transforming the way developers build applications.
Our mission is to fundamentally change how software is built on the Internet by empowering developers to create fast, reliable, and dynamic apps without a backend team. We provide a full-stack app platform carefully designed with database, compute and backend abstractions that allow developers and LLMs to move fast but also create products that scale and remain simple over their lifetime.
The Team: https://convex.dev/about-us
Convex has assembled a team of engineers who have built and designed some of the largest platforms in the world, with exabytes of data, millions of transactions per second, and shipped desktop and mobile software onto billions of devices. We are a group of friendly, collaborative, and passionate people that love working in-person together in our office in San Francisco. We hire primarily in SF but have a few experienced folks working remotely in certain situations.
The Role
Convex is a backend platform but our key differentiator is an excellent client API and developer experience. We’ve invested huge efforts in our client libraries, development APIs and sync protocol to make Convex a joy to use for application developers. We’re looking to expand our team to develop the next version of the Convex API and help define what the modern application stack looks like.
