[Hiring] Edge Functions Engineer @Supabase

2d ago - Supabase is hiring a remote Edge Functions Engineer. 💸 Salary: unspecified 📍Location: Worldwide

Role Description

We are looking for experienced and passionate engineers to help us go further in our vision of enabling developers to build truly global applications.

  • Evolving Supabase Edge Runtime - an Open-sourced Rust-based host that runs the Deno isolate, manages the main/user runtime split, and enforces per-request memory and CPU limits.
  • Implementing monitoring, alerting, and OpenTelemetry tracing across the runtime, then using that visibility to drive optimizations that improve latency and reliability of the service.
  • Working closely with the Deno and other open-source teams, contributing to upstream and relaying our users' requirements.
  • Participating in an on-call rotation to keep Edge Functions healthy in production.
  • Help manage and improve features like scheduled functions, background tasks, WebSockets streaming, ephemeral file storage, and custom routing.
  • Integrating functions more tightly with the rest of the Supabase stack - Auth, Postgres, Storage, and Realtime.
  • Expanding functions to support more use cases (AI inference, MCP servers, hosting simple websites, URL shorteners).
  • Improving the DX of developing and debugging functions locally through the Supabase CLI, including DevTools integration, logging, and production parity.

Qualifications

  • At least 5 years of backend or systems engineering experience, with strong fluency in Rust and TypeScript.
  • Experience with V8 Isolates, Deno and the JavaScript runtimes in general.
  • Experience operating infrastructure at scale - Kubernetes, AWS, Cloudflare Workers, Redis, or comparable systems.
  • A strong vision for how compute and data can be pushed to the edge.
  • Bonus: experience building developer-facing CLIs or front-end tooling that sits on top of an infrastructure product.

Benefits

  • Fully Remote - We hire globally. We believe you can do your best work from anywhere. There are no Supabase offices, but we provide a WeWork membership or co-working allowance you can use anywhere in the world.
  • ESOP - Every team member receives ESOP (equity ownership) in the company. We want everyone to share in the upside of what we’re building together.
  • Tech Allowance - Use this budget to set up your ideal work environment—laptop, monitor, headphones, or whatever helps you do your best work.
  • Health Benefits - Supabase covers 100% of health insurance for employees and 80% for dependents, wherever you are. Your wellbeing and your family’s health are important to us.
  • Annual Off-Sites - Once a year, the entire company gathers in a new city for a week of connection, collaboration, and fun. It’s a highlight of our year.
  • Flexible Work - We operate asynchronously and trust you to manage your own time. You know what needs to be done and when.
  • Professional Development - Every team member receives an annual education allowance to spend on learning—courses, books, conferences, or anything that supports your growth.
