Do you delight in the minutia of how your favorite open source libraries work under the hood? Are you excited about engaging with the developer community through technical writing, demos, and education? If so, keep reading!

As a Senior Software Engineer on the Apollo Client Development team, you will play a pivotal role in shaping the future of GraphQL and Apollo’s GraphOS product. Apollo Client is downloaded over three million times per week, your work will be seen and used by countless teams worldwide. You might think that we’re looking for someone who has all the answers or will be fluent in our codebase on day one, but that’s not the case. The most powerful skills you can bring to bear are curiosity, communication, and creativity.

On the technical side, we’re in search of someone who has taken the time to learn the ins and outs of React (or other component libraries/frameworks) and TypeScript.  You should have a solid understanding of how developers build frontend / full-stack applications, and a passion for educating and engaging with software people through writing and presenting. You’ll work closely with our word-class product and engineering teams, collaborate across the GraphQL, TypeScript, and React communities, and get into the trenches with our community of users and customers.

What You'll Do

  • Feature development and stewardship of Apollo Client.
  • Maintain and innovate within our browser and IDE extensions.
  • Nurture and cultivate our large and growing community of users (GitHub, forums, events).
  • Create clear, well-structured documentation and educational content to help developers get the most out of Apollo’s tools.
  • Represent Apollo’s engineering brand in virtual events and the occasional conference.
  • Collaborate with product, design, and engineering teams to ensure Apollo’s client developer toolkit evolves with the needs of our customers and the broader GraphQL ecosystem.
  • Champion the needs of UI developers within the GraphQL Working Group.

Who You Are

  • You have extensive experience building production-grade React (or something similar like Vue or Angular) applications and deep expertise in TypeScript.
  • You have a basic understanding of GraphQL and experience integrating it into frontend applications.
  • You care deeply about developer experience and have worked on internal/open-source libraries, frameworks, or tooling that improve UI development.
  • You have excellent written and verbal communication skills and enjoy breaking down complex technical concepts for different audiences.
  • You have experience creating technical content, such as documentation, blog posts, tutorials, or conference talks (internal or public).
  • You have a track record of engaging on open-source projects (opening issues, creating reproductions, and/or maintaining projects yourself).
  • You have a history of contributing to a developer community, whether it’s a meetup group, a professional organization, conference attendance, or an online chat/community/forum.
  • You have experience with or are excited to learn how to start engaging with technical specification writing/reading.

Apollo is the worldwide leader of GraphQL innovation. Companies like Netflix, Expedia, Peloton, DoorDash, The New York Times, and PayPal are just a small sample of Apollo's customers. Our open-source product has millions of downloads every week. Gartner estimates that by 2025, 50% of companies will be using GraphQL, and we're the clear market leader.
