Staff Backend Engineer (Node/Typescript) | Berlin or Europe remote

Hi there,

We at n8n are building the most powerful, flexible, and open workflow automation platform for technical people out there. We launched n8n at the end of 2019 as a Source Code Available product and things have grown exponentially since then.

📈 10k people try us out for the first time each month

⭐️ With 34k stars, we are in the top 500 of the 238m projects on GitHub

🧑‍🤝‍🧑 We have a passionate and engaged community

🌱 We were Sequoia's first seed investment in Germany and raised $12m Series A round in 2021, led by Felicis Ventures

this is our GitHub repository: https://github.com/n8n-io/n8n

Is this a codebase that you would like to improve?

Is this a project you would like to be part of?

Your Role

We want someone who gets excited by:

• Working on the core of complex applications

• Reducing technical debt
• Optimization & Performance
• Scalability
• Developer experience
• Deep work and freedom to choose what to improve

You will not like this role if you:

• Want to work on new features (focus on improving what already exists)
• Like to have a PM that gives guidance on what to work on (no PM, no scrum meetings, no user stories)
• Want to work in a larger team (while we are around 20 engineers at n8n, you will mainly work with one other engineer)

Requirements

• Typescript and Node.js expert
• Biased for action and a self-started

Benefits

• Ultimate autonomy and freedom to do deep work
• Spending your time on technically challenging tasks
• Transparency. We all know what everyone’s working on, how’s the company doing
• A passionate team who loves the product we are building
• We're big fans of open source, and you'll get $100 per month to give to projects you care about
• Being fair is really important to us. Equity? Of course we give you equity

This role can be done from anywhere within Europe. We can sponsor visas to Germany; for any other country, you need to have existing right to work. Our company language is English.
