The Role
The Developer Relations Engineer will create content, build demos, and represent Supabase at events while engaging with the developer community.
Summary Generated by Built In

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.

We’re looking for a Developer Relations Engineer to help more developers discover, learn, and build with Supabase. You’ll create high-impact content, build real-world projects, and represent Supabase across communities and events. If you’re equally energized by writing code and teaching others, this is the role for you.

Why this role matters

Supabase is growing fast with 350,000+ developers, 1,000+ OSS contributors, and a thriving open source ecosystem. Our users are builders, startup founders, weekend hackers, and engineers scaling to millions of users. DevRel is how we meet them where they are: through content, community, and code.

We’re building a community of communities that brings together developers from many backgrounds, including first-time open source contributors. As a DevRel Engineer, you’ll be a bridge between Supabase and the broader developer ecosystem, helping people get started, go deep, and feel connected.

What you'll do
  • Make content

    Publish compelling technical content, especially video, to help developers learn Supabase quickly

  • Build demos and tutorials

    Ship real-world apps using Supabase and tools like Next.js, React, and Stripe. Write guides that others can follow and remix

  • Represent Supabase

    Speak at meetups, livestream builds, and engage with the developer ecosystem. You’ll be a visible and trusted voice of the platform

  • Support and grow the community

    Celebrate contributors, answer questions, highlight cool projects, and bring developer feedback to the team

  • Collaborate across the company

    Work with engineering, product, and growth to amplify launches, prioritize content, and reduce friction for new users

You might be a fit if:
  • You’ve built full-stack apps and enjoy sharing your knowledge

  • You create content that makes people want to open their code editor

  • You’re equally comfortable writing a video script and TypeScript

  • You’re energized by community whether it’s on Discord, Twitter, YouTube, or in person

  • You’re self-directed, organized, and excited to contribute to open source

Requirements
  • This role is based in San Francisco to support regular in-person devrel video shoots, attend local events, and be an active presence in the SF tech ecosystem.

  • Strong engineering skills, especially with JavaScript or TypeScript, Postgres, and modern frontend frameworks (React, Svelte, Vue, etc.)

  • Experience creating technical content (written or video)

  • Comfortable representing a product publicly (on camera, on stage, or online)

Bonus points if you have:
  • A growing audience on YouTube, Twitch, or Twitter

  • Prior experience in DevRel or open source

  • Have used (and loved) Supabase

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.

  • 180+ team members

  • 40+ countries

  • 15+ languages spoken

  • $496M raised

  • 430,000+ community members

  • 30,000+ memes posted (and counting)

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.

Hiring Process

We keep things simple, async-friendly, and respectful of your time:

  1. Apply – Our team will review your application.

  2. Intro Call – A short video chat to get to know each other.

  3. Interviews – Up to four calls with:

    • Founders

    • Future teammates

    • Someone cross-functional from product, growth, or engineering (depending on the role)

  4. Decision – We may follow up with a final question or go straight to offer.

All communication is remote and we aim to move fast.
