Convex is a rapidly growing startup aiming to change the way the web is built. Specifically, we're creating a Global State Management platform--a new way to build apps without backends, databases, VPCs, kubernetes, etc.
Featured recently here: https://www.forbes.com/sites/kenrickcai/2022/04/27/convex-se...
More background on the vision: https://a16z.com/2022/04/27/investing-in-convex/ https://blog.convex.dev/unfulfilled-functional-ideals/
We're looking for people passionate about developer platforms, web development, mobile development, distributed systems and databases--all the pieces necessary to create a holistic replacement for the backends of years past.
Our stack is TypeScript + Rust. The Convex team has been building critical systems in Rust for nearly 10 years:

...so if you're passionate about learning in depth how to take Rust into production, join up!
Feel free to either reply to me or apply directly on https://convex.dev/jobs
Or, if you just want a beta key to learn more about what Convex is first, let me know. I'll hand those out too.
