Software Engineer (Rust + Typescript)

Looking for a senior, passionate and “cracked” backend engineer to work on the open-source developer platform Windmill: https://github.com/windmill-labs/windmill

We are open to less senior candidates but a high-degree of autonomy and initiative will be expected after a ramp-up period.

We are building the next generation infra software, to deploy Windmill on your Kubernetes cluster or big VMs on a docker-compose, and have managed workers with low overhead managing all your small and heavy one-off jobs, and critical operational workflows and data pipelines.

Our customers have between 2 and 600 workers, use between 1 and 1000 seats.

The product challenges of developing a developer platform is, at the same time, to make it a delightful and intuitive experience, while keeping all the features and depth of a tool for developer.

For instance, Windmill parses your code to extract the dependencies in Python/TypeScript, create a corresponding lockfile, and also extract the parameters from the main function signatures to generate an initial UI. It lets developers focus on the important part of the code while just taking care of all the boilerplate for you but giving escape hatches for managing dependencies manually and customizing the UI. All of that while also being the fastest workflow engine.

We have 100+ enterprise customers with comfortable revenue, tier 1 investors (Google, Bessemer), and high growth.
