Supabase is an open source alternative to Firebase, providing a range of backend tools designed to help developers start and scale their applications effectively. It offers features such as a full Postgres database, authentication with Row Level Security, instant APIs, Edge Functions for custom code, real-time data synchronization, and storage for large files. Developers can integrate machine learning models, utilize RESTful APIs, and take advantage of platform-integrated best of breed products. Supabase is designed to be highly portable, extendable, and user-friendly, making it a powerful choice for startups and enterprises looking to innovate quickly and efficiently.

📋 Description

• 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.

🎯 Requirements

• 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.
