Garden.io is looking for an Open Source Developer (NodeJS / Typescript)

Garden's mission is to keep developers productive and happy in the cloud-native era.

The platform—which includes our open source core product—allows developers to work on distributed systems in remote, production-like dev environments while enjoying the same fast and frictionless feedback loops we've come to expect when developing a single service locally.

It's a platform that democratizes the kind of advanced developer tooling that only the largest software companies have the resources to build and maintain.

**What you'll do**
Our open-source core product is a pluggable, graph-based, cloud development tool. That's a mouthful, but in essence, it's an engine that's optimised for building, testing, and deploying workloads that run on the cloud.

It features plugins for Kubernetes, Helm, Terraform and more—and we're always looking to the future in terms of what technologies to support.

As one of three Open Core Developers, you will be responsible for maintaining and improving the core engine and main plugins.

More specifically:
You and your team will work closely with the founders and together you will decide on the direction and architecture of Garden Core.
You'll be in close contact with our community, triaging issues, receiving feedback and weaving it into our overall product roadmap.
You'll work on functionality that interfaces with other cloud native products such as Kubernetes and Terraform.
You'll write code, lots of code. Most workflows and pipelines are already set up and the developer experience is smooth. At the same time, there are a ton of exciting features that'll delight developers worldwide that we can't wait to build. So in short, you'll get to do all the fun stuff. And since it's all open source, you can see exactly what that looks like by checking out the codebase.
You’ll write, maintain and improve documentation, guides and examples around the product.

**What we're looking for**
Garden solves problems for teams developing distributed systems that can run on Kubernetes. We're looking for someone that understands the challenges that these teams face, and wants to join us in building developer tooling that helps our users overcome them.

More specifically:
You have 2+ years of experience as a full-stack engineer with Node.js and Typescript.
You're passionate about developer tooling and productivity.
You are interested in distributed systems (or micro-services) and the cloud native technologies used to build and run them.
You have experience working in remote distributed teams and have excellent written communication skills.
You're happy to work with a team that is still figuring a lot of things out, and values trust, openness, and collaboration while doing so.
We explicitly encourage applications from groups that are underrepresented in tech. We celebrate and encourage diversity of race, religion, color, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, age and thought. Diversity is easier said than done but it's one of our founding principles to provide a diverse and inclusive environment.
