Salary: $170,000 - $210,000 per year
A bit about us:
APIs underpin the internet but are still painful to work with. They are often untyped, unstandardized, and out-of-sync across multiple sources of truth. We enable businesses to offer "Stripe-level" SDKs (client libraries) and Docs for their REST API. Inspired by internal tooling we saw at AWS and Palantir, we're building Fern to let every engineering team offer easy-to-use and well-documented APIs.
Founded in 2022, we're less than 20 people, building open source, and backed by Bessemer and YC. We work together in our office in the Williamsburg neighborhood of Brooklyn, NY. Our customers include Square, Auth0, Intuit, Cohere, ElevenLabs, and Webflow.
Why join us?
What We Offer:
Unlimited vacation.

About the Role: This role is ideal for ambitious engineers with entrepreneurial goals. Many of us are former or future founders, and this is an opportunity to scale a company from $1M to $10M ARR while partnering with fast-growing tech companies shaping the future of software. We value in-person collaboration and work out of our office in the Williamsburg neighborhood of Brooklyn.
