Job Description

Mission 🐝

At Speakeasy we’re building the next generation of API infrastructure.  We aim to give all of our customers a stripe-like developer experience through best in class developer surfaces. Great developer experience drives API adoption, reduces the burden on support and engineering and paves the way for emergent use cases.

Our Product 🛠️

  • We write code that writes code. Our tools are generally Golang and Typescript. We use LLMs where possible to super charge our product experience.

  • The code that we generate ends up as GitHub Open Source Repositories for SDKs of our customer’s API, Terraform Providers and other developer surfaces. We build virality through stamping these repositories that we produce with “Powered By Speakeasy”. We call these Managed SDKs .

  • We have a web interface (React, Typescript, Golang) to help configure everything.

Why We’re Excited

  • Our customers love us and promote us online.

  • This is a opportunity with a Massive TAM.

  • We have high revenue per customer, very significant virality and natural means for product distribution.

  • We build cool stuff that is super useful for our customers.

  • We power the first experience an end user has when interacting with an API.

About us 👬

  • We're a tight-knit group of 10 who care deeply about developer experience and driving value for our customers.

  • We’re looking for polyglots, who can understand and support customers in whatever language and technology they use to build and integrate API products – the more languages, the better.

  • Our engineering team is founded on the principle of context over control. We ship code quickly and continuously to production, and trust each other to exercise autonomy to evolve our product and processes to ever-better match our company goals.

  • We believe that in-person collaboration is strategically important for a company at our stage, while also recognising that amazing team members can be found anywhere. To balance the two, there are no constraints on employee location, but we do meet up and spend a week together roughly every quarter.

  • We're backed by top-tier VCs and a bench of angel investors who occupy leadership positions at key software engineering firms. We’re based in San Francisco and London, and are looking to hire remote-first in the US or UK with a preference for PST and GMT time zones.

Our Values ⭐

Autonomy, over Consensus

  • We trust individuals to make decisions, own the outcomes, and gather data from others where appropriate

Execution, over Perfection

  • We prioritise and execute. We don’t over-analyse, and are comfortable moving ahead despite ambiguity

Transparency, over Illusion

  • We are ambitious in our goals, but honest about our progress. We don’t shy away from asking questions or pushing back when something doesn’t make sense

Through customer value our ego is lost

  • We make decisions by focussing relentlessly on customer value — and accept if this means changing our individual ideas. Customer success is team success.

About you 🔥

  • Enthusiastic about working on technical challenges for developer focused products and not hesitant to dive into the rabbit hole and become operational with a new piece of tech.

  • Comfortable working in a fast-paced and ambiguous environment aka shifting sands of startup land. 

  • You love diving deep into the comments section of a design doc :) but also bias towards action and spin out that POC before lunchtime.

  • Excited to be a builder for builders! Empathy for developers across the stack and an enthusiasm for developer first products

  • A great product sense and experience building infrastructure products that other team’s rely on

  • Enjoy understanding technical domains deeply and are willing to really get into the weeds. 

  • A high sense of technical ownership and desire to please the customer. 

  • Location: SF strongly preferred! We spend at least one, and ideally 2-3 days in the office together per week

You might be a good fit if you … 

  • Have experience working on internal platform engineering teams, developer tools, developer productivity or infrastructure products at scale. 

  • Have experienced the realities of building and maintaining APIs first hand.

  • Are a generalist and polyglot engineer with an ability to pick up new frameworks quickly and willing to work across the stack from backend to frontend. 

  • Looking to write foundational lines of code that will become core product for years to come 

  • Bonus: Experience with code generation, transpilation, synthesis, building or extending core web frameworks like Axios, tPRC, Mux etc.  

  • Bonus: Expertise with OpenAPI, Code mods, linters, building SDKs or other tooling for REST APIs

  • Bonus: Expertise using LLMs for code generation or code completionEngineer at Speakeasy
