Software Engineer

<div class="content-intro"><p><strong>Warp: We're Building the Platform for Agentic Development</strong></p> <p>Warp began with the vision of reimagining one of the fundamental dev tools—the terminal—to make it more usable and powerful for all developers. As AI has advanced, Warp has evolved beyond its terminal roots into the platform for Agentic Development: a workbench for dispatching agents to code, deploy, and debug production software.</p> <p>With over 700k active developers and revenue that grew over 44x last year, Warp is now one of the fastest growing startups in the exploding AI development space. We believe that soon developers will be “tech leads” for groups of agents; rather than opening a code editor to write code or a terminal to write commands, they will open Warp and prompt their computer to build features, fix bugs, and diagnose production issues.</p> <p>With its starting point as a reimagined command line, Warp is well-positioned to support agent-first workflows: It sits at the lowest level in the dev stack, has access to all of a developer’s context, and is set up for multitasking and long-running processes. In addition, Warp has state-of-the-art code editing features and built-in team knowledge sharing. It’s the right interface for the agentic future.</p> <p>Our mission has remained the same even as AI has advanced: to empower developers to ship better software more quickly, freeing them to focus on the creative and rewarding aspects of their work.</p> <p>For more information on our team and culture, we highly recommend reading our <a href="https://warpdev.notion.site/Public-Warp-How-We-Work-b872d41a1da743fca18220a731aeba48">How We Work</a>.</p></div><p><strong>As a Software Engineer, you will…</strong></p> <ul> <li>Participate in all aspects of software development activities, including design, coding, code review, unit/integration testing, bug fixing, and code/API documentation.</li> <li>Collaborate closely with the rest of engineering and other stakeholders from our growth, marketing, and product teams to plan features and build a high-quality product that elevates the productivity of all developers.</li> <li>Improve Warp's performance and reliability by building new features or polishing existing product parts.</li> <li>Prototype ideas and concepts to get quick feedback from internal and external users</li> <li>Work across the entire technical stack to ensure users have the most efficient and delightful Warp experience.
