Bun is an open-source JavaScript tooling company focused on making programming simpler. We've raised $26 million from top investors in Silicon Valley, are among the most popular GitHub repositories and have a growing community of 33,000 Discord members. In Bun v1.1, we added Windows support and we launched Bun v1.0 in September 2023.
We're hiring systems engineers to come to San Francisco and help us make JavaScript faster and more productive. This role will involve lots of open-source low-level systems work, mostly in Bun's GitHub repository and eventually in a commercial hosting product.
At Bun, we take ownership over the entire software stack. That makes working here a great place to learn a ton about systems programming. In our day-to-day work on Bun, our team has written a JavaScript & TypeScript parser, an HTTP/1.1 client, TCP & UDP socket APIs, an efficient globbing library, a bash-like interpreter & shell, coreutils like 'cp', 'ls', 'seq' and so much more.
