turbopuffer is looking for product engineers who want to advance the frontier of search. we're doubling down on our developer experience this year and looking to ship a host of highly requested features and improvements (playgrounds, observability, alerting, insights, billing).
what you'll do:
- design and implement end-to-end improvements to our overall developer experience from the UX (dashboard, docs, site, SDKs) to our core database.
- help customers understand, monitor, and optimize their tpuf workloads.
- write crisp docs
must have:
- product engineering
- you've worked extensively with browser technologies (HTML/CSS/JS/TS) and web apps in general (databases, APIs)

- you are driven by solving user problems
- you have an eye for design
- domain expertise
- you’ve maintained and iterated on web-based products at scale
- you have prior experience with multi-tenant SaaS apps (billing, authentication, authorization)
- typist — you can write well and explain complex ideas simply

nice to have:
- experience in the React ecosystem (shadcn/ui, Next.js, Tailwind, Vercel) and/or backend frameworks (Rails, Phoenix, Django)
