About the role
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 team:
Management API , written in TypeScript , Nest.js and for other JavaScript technologies, is a central part of every product in the Supabase stack. It allows all Supabase services and Supabase Studio to communicate with each other, programmatically manage your own Supabase projects and organisations, as well as integrate with 3rd party services like Vercel , Resend , or Lovable . We are seeking someone to help us maintain the existing API, expand OAuth applications capabilities, enhance reliability, and improve the overall public API experience.
You will:
Design, implement, and maintain both internal and public-facing APIs used across various Supabase products, including Studio, CLI, management APIs, and OAuth applications.
Integrate with third-party platforms and partners, either by developing custom integrations or providing clear API points for them to connect with Supabase.
Collaborate closely with various teams across Supabase (DevOps, Frontend, etc.) to ensure smooth integration and implementation of API functionality for the rest of the platform.
Build and enhance testing, debugging, and monitoring tools to ensure public APIs' stability, reliability, and performance.
Work with the dev-workflows team to enhance and improve the Branching experience, making it easier and more valuable for Supabase users.
You have:
5+ years of experience in backend API development, with strong expertise in TypeScript and JavaScript (Node.js) and familiarity with modern tools and frameworks (e.g., Nest.js, Express, Vitest, Zod).
Expertise in designing robust, scalable, and maintainable APIs, and experience with API versioning, pagination, and error handling best practices. Experience with OAuth , JWT , and API security best practices (rate limiting, CORS, etc.). is a plus.
Good understanding of PostgreSQL and relational databases.
Proven ability to build scalable, maintainable APIs and develop tools for testing , debugging , and monitoring API performance.
Understanding of CI/CD pipelines, Docker , and containerized deployments to streamline API development, testing, and release processes.
