What if you could influence how an entire generation of programmers code?
Replit is a collaborative in-browser IDE. We're building a stellar compute platform that runs code for millions of users, and hosts millions of apps (cheaply). Replit is the most popular entry-to-programming IDE and is the best in its collaborative capabilities. It's also increasingly the number-one destination for teenage hackers and hobbyists to build and launch apps.
Our work spans the hardest problems in computing (sandboxing, distributed systems, scheduling) and the most interesting problems in HCI ("how do you create a learnable programming environment?").
It's a unique time to join because we proved a huge demand for what we're building while also being early enough to have a huge impact and get a big part of the upside. We are only 18 people.

Replit is a multiplayer computing environment that makes it fun to learn how to code, build, and share apps with other people.
On Replit, you can create a computer in milliseconds -- we call them "repls" -- and you can create as many of them as you'd like, all for free. Repls come with storage for your code and files, a database for your data, and a multiplayer editor & console to code with your friends. You can boost a repl for $5/month to make it bigger and faster.
When you invite a friend to your repl, you can see them in your editor and talk to them right in your code. You can make web, desktop, and even command-line apps. Replit takes care of the entire process of publishing and hosting apps so you can focus on your ideas.
Millions of people have learned how to code with Replit and built great apps with thousands of happy users. Some have even built businesses and became rich & famous. Join us to grow a new generation of hackers & entrepreneurs.
Replit | Multiple roles | REMOTE (but we have NYC and SFO offices if you like) | replit.com | Full Time
Replit's mission is to make programming more accessible. We build powerful yet simple tools and platforms for educators, learners, and developers. We want to blur the line between learning and making– a place where you can hang out, tinker with ideas, learn new concepts, and launch a business all in the same day. Our main products include a collaborative web-based IDE, a powerful yet simple hosting platform, and an education-focused environment for remote learning.
We are a 30-ish blend of former founders, public educators, designers, and engineers from Google, Mozilla, Facebook, Spotify, Box, Scratch, and more-- all with educations that range from completely self-taught to bootcamp graduates and PhDs. In February 2021, we raised $20M in Series A financing led by A.Capital with strong participation from our seed investors: Andreessen Horowitz, Bloomberg Beta, Y Combinator, and Reach Capital.
Our tech stack includes a backend written mostly in Go with a bit of Rust and uses Docker, Kubernetes, PostgreSQL, and Redis. The frontend is written in React/TypeScript with GraphQL, PostgreSQL, and Redis.
To achieve our mission, we need our team to be representative of the world. We welcome your unique perspective and experiences in shaping this product. We encourage people from all kinds of backgrounds to apply, including and especially candidates from underrepresented and non-traditional backgrounds.
Repl.it is the first massively open computing platform where anyone, even without even needing an account, can hop on and in seconds start executing code, build and host applications and websites, and collaborate with other people.
Providing a service like this is challenging from all a scaling, security, and billing perspectives. Also, supporting the number of languages we do (https://repl.it/languages) is a hard tooling problem -- we have to build generic protocols for executing, debugging, authoring code, running tests, handling files, etc. Finally, it's an incredibly challenging frontend/design problem to build a fast collaborative in-browser IDE that's both powerful and simple.
It's a great time to be joining us, we're still 8 full-time people, we reach millions of coders a month, and we're backed by YC and a16z.
Replit is building the world's most ubiquitous AI-powered programming environment. We serve everybody from first time coders to startup founders and growth stage companies.

Repl.it (YC W18) | Frontend, fullstack, mobile, backend, designers | SF or Remote (US) | https://repl.it/jobs
Repl.it is the first massively open collaborative computing platform where anyone, even without even needing an account, can hop on and in seconds start coding, building, and hosting apps and websites.
Apply if you like working on challenging problems, because running a service like this is hard to operate, scale, and secure. Also, supporting the number of languages we do (https://repl.it/languages) is a hard tooling problem -- we have to build generic protocols for all IDE actions like executing, debugging, authoring, running tests, writing files, etc. Finally, it's an incredibly challenging frontend/design problem to build a fast collaborative in-browser IDE that's both powerful and simple.
It's a great time to be joining us, we're still 12 full-time people, we reach millions of coders a month, and we're backed by YC and a16z.

That was a clone of Replit that we made work at Codecademy. I started working on Replit (or repl.it) back when I was a student in Jordan. I didn't have a laptop so every time I wanted to get some programming done I had to setup a development environment at the university or at work. The idea for Replit was when you needed a repl to do some coding you should easily get one from anywhere including a mobile device. I thought it would benefit many people, especially those who don't have the means to buy expensive computers.
It took 2 years of work to get something working and in 2011 we launched on HN (2011 web archive snapshot here https://web.archive.org/web/20111007050930/http://repl.it/ and HN launch here https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3056490). It was the first of its kind and it inspired a lot of projects and still does today. It was totally open-source (https://github.com/replit-archive/repl.it) and after the launch it was used as infrastructure by Codecademy (which later employed me) and Udacity and many others to deliver interactive coding in the browser. I was thrilled about that.
Now, a lot of people implicitly assume that in a dispute between for-profit company and an open-source project, the for-profit company must be in the wrong. But there is some line that it's unethical to cross in copying a former employer's product (if you don't believe that, you can stop reading now, because no argument will convince you) and I think to someone who knew Replit's architecture well, this project would clearly
be across it. It copied even unique, invisible aspects of Replit's architecture that I consider to be flaws. That's the hallmark of copying versus merely writing one's own program to solve the same problem.
