About Replit
We’re building the world’s most ubiquitous programming environment. We focus on inspiring creativity and generating value for creators through community, and we design 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.

• Make Tensorflow install in a few seconds

• Turn debugging into a multiplayer experience for Python, Java, Node, and C/C++

• Decrease Python Repl startup time by 100x

• Make our flagship languages feature-complete (packager integration, debugger, LSP)

• Add new languages as soon as there is community interest

• Create Replit templates for common developer needs

• Create nix modules to configure the IDE

• Build infrastructure to support our developer experience needs

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

• Someone who has worked in the developer experience or developer tools space for 5+ years

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 built or have deep experience with compilers and interpreters

• You have built or have experience with the language server protocol

• You have managed a public-facing project (you have launched projects with real users)
