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.

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.

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.
