Company mission
To keep developers in flow by removing obstacles that prevent them from writing code at the speed of thought.
Role
Who you are
- Currently based in the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Ireland, or Poland
- 3+ years of full-stack experience writing code in a professional setting
- Strong proficiency in TypeScript - this is a front-end heavy position
- Some experience with Go and shell scripting
- An OSS presence - GitHub, GitLab, etc
- Familiarity with different operating systems
- Understanding of networking fundamentals: IP, TCP, TLS, SSH, & HTTP
- Experience maintaining libraries or plugins, particularly those that are open-source
What the job involves
- We are looking for a contractor passionate about improving developer experience to help us evolve our VS Code extension
- You’ll work closely with our engineering teams to enhance the integration with our core product, focusing on feature development, extension architecture, and usability
- This is a contract position and up to 40 hours/week may be needed initially. However, we expect the scope to taper down to part-time after a few months
- Contribute directly to the development of our open-source VS Code extension by writing high-quality code, shaping its architecture, and driving technical decisions that improve integration with our core product
- Write clear, developer-friendly documentation and improve the structure of our open-source VS Code extension repository to support both internal engineering teams and external users
- Work alongside Customer Success teams to support Coder’s enterprise user base
Application process
- We believe that the interview process should be consistent and enjoyable
- We value your time and hope to get through the interview process in two to three weeks if schedules allow
- During this time, you will be able to meet a mix of individual contributors, managers, and leadership
Our take
In order to work at the "speed of thought", developers need coding tools that support their processes instead of slowing them down. This is exactly what Coder provides, with a platform that enables organizations to build their own development platform in the cloud.
The platform is built for enterprise scale, and supports remote teams - a crucial selling point for businesses with increasingly distributed workforces. It is also the first platform to be self-hosted, open source and compatible with any cloud, IDE, OS, Git provider or IDP.
It is these features which make Coder a strong option in the market, with the potential to speed up and improve the developer experience. In 2024, it raised a substantial Series B funding round that has gone towards product expansion, the acceleration of its cloud development environment and market expansion across the EMEA. Its platform is now used by the likes of Infosys, Mercedes-Benz and Goldman Sachs.
