Web3 Software Engineer/Tech Lead: Developer Tools

Computers are the most powerful tools to exist in the history of humanity. Today, only a relative few—professional software developers—can use this superpower to its fullest extent. This has created an unbalanced world where there are programmers and those who consume their programs. Replit is changing that dynamic by bringing the next billion software creators online.

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. As a Tech Lead on this team you will be responsible for setting direction for projects, communicating priorities, roadmapping (long term investments along with short term wins) and mentoring engineers.

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
