We are a rapidly scaling software company, backed by top investors, enabling businesses to offer "Stripe-level" SDKs (client libraries) and documentation for their REST APIs.

Technical Deep Dive: Go deep on customer use cases, design relevant product features, and build solutions, primarily using TypeScript.
Team Building: Work directly with the CEO, CTO, and other founding members to help interview and bring in talented engineers as we grow.
