Software Engineer

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 the headaches of complex backend engineering or the hassles of database administration. We provide a cutting-edge, full-stack developer platform that seamlessly combines a powerful custom database with an integrated execution environment.

The Team:

Convex has assembled a team of technologists who have built and designed some of the largest backends 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 individuals that love working in-person together in our offices in SF and NYC.

What Excites Us:

• A penchant for building great things on the internet

• Passion for systems and infrastructure challenges

• Product mindedness with good taste in creating a magical developer experience

• Good engineering sense is more important to us than specific language experience. If you’re a strong developer and excited to work at an early-stage startup, we’d love to connect!

Qualifications:

• Bachelors, Masters, or PhD in Computer Science (or related technical field) with a minimum of 2+ years of relevant experience with backend, systems, product, or full-stack engineering

• Rust and/or Typescript experience is nice to have (most of our backend development is in Rust and our frontend libraries are primarily in Typescript)

• Interest to work in-person in our office located in the Potrero Hill neighborhood of San Francisco
