Engineering Productivity Engineer

About Supabase

Supabase is the Postgres development platform, built by developers for developers. We provide a complete backend solution including Database, Auth, Storage, Edge Functions, Realtime, and Vector Search. All services are deeply integrated and designed for growth.

About the Role

We’re looking for an EngProd Engineer to join our Engineering Operations team and own the engineering experience from local setup to production deploy. You’ll build and integrate the tools our engineers rely on every day: local development, code search, testing, code review, CI, AI-assisted workflows, and the metrics that show where time is being lost. You’ll work closely with other engineering teams at Supabase to eliminate friction, optimize cycle times, and make reliably shipping to production effortless.

This role is ideal for someone who thrives in async, fast-paced environments and is excited about building developer tools that engineers love and that empower them to do their best work.

What You’ll Be Responsible for

In this role, you’ll:

• Improve local development and the daily workflow

• Own local development environment stability; eliminate “works on my machine,” keep environments reproducible across teams, and make onboarding and setup self-service for every engineer

• Improve the daily editing experience, including IDE and editor tooling, extensions, and code search, indexing, and navigation that stays fast as the codebase grows

• Build paved roads: project scaffolding, templates, and golden-path workflows that make the right thing the easy thing

You Might Be a Good Fit If You

• Have 7+ years of software engineering experience, with a focus on developer productivity, infrastructure, or platform engineering

• Are passionate about developer experience and productivity; you notice when engineers are fighting tools rather than solving problems, and you can’t help but fix it

• Are proficient in Go, TypeScript, Python, Rust, and shell and use them to build robust internal tools

• You have experience with:

• CI/CD systems and pipeline optimization (e.g. Github Actions, ArgoCD, Octopus, Harness)

• Local development environments and reproducibility (e.g. devcontainers, Nix, Docker)

• Containerization and image optimization

• AI-assisted development tools such as coding agents and IDE assistants, with a clear point of view on where they help and where they don’t

• Test infrastructure and test orchestration, ephemeral end-to-end environments, flaky-test management, and approaches like mutation or chaos testing

• Code review and developer workflow tooling, and the automation that streamlines it

• Monorepo tooling, build systems, and package managers (e.g. pnpm, Nx, Turborepo, Bazel), including build caching and remote execution

• Developer productivity metrics and feedback loops (e.g. DORA), and using data to drive improvements

What We Offer

• Fully Remote

  We hire globally. We believe you can do your best work from anywhere. There are no Supabase offices, but we provide a WeWork membership or co-working allowance you can use anywhere in the world.

• ESOP

  Every team member receives ESOP (equity ownership) in the company. We want everyone to share in the upside of what we’re building together.

• Tech Allowance

  Use this budget to set up your ideal work environment - laptop, monitor, headphones, or whatever helps you do your best work.

• Health Benefits

  Supabase covers 100% of health insurance for employees and 80% for dependents, wherever you are. Your wellbeing and your family’s health are important to us.

• Annual Off-Sites

  Once a year, the entire company gathers in a new city for a week of connection, collaboration, and fun. It’s a highlight of our year.

• Flexible Work

  We operate asynchronously and trust you to manage your own time. You know what needs to be done and when.

• Professional Development

  Every team member receives an annual education allowance to spend on learning - courses, books, conferences, or anything that supports your growth.

About the Team

Supabase was born-remote and open-source-first. We believe our globally distributed team is our secret weapon in building tools developers love.

• ~400 team members

• 60+ countries

• 20+ languages spoken

• Over $1B raised (including our $500M Series F)

• 540,000+ community members

We move fast, build in public, and use what we ship. If it’s in your project, we probably use it in ours too. We believe deeply in the open-source ecosystem and strive to support - not replace - existing tools and communities.
