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 Role

We’re looking for a Software Engineer to join our Turso core database team and help bring forward the future of agentic databases. Turso is both an Open Source database that replaces SQLite—with an ongoing project to also support the Postgres interface—and a Cloud offering where users can create databases on demand. You’ll work closely with customers and other teams at Supabase to build the future of what databases look like in a world where users and agents are creating millions of databases a day.

This role is ideal for someone who thrives in async, fast-paced environments and is excited about building database technology tools that scale to billions.

What You’ll Be Responsible For
  • Driving the progress of the Turso Open Source database, in particular the Postgres compatibility layer.

  • Making sure code works, and never breaks, and putting the systems and guarantees in place for that to happen.

  • Maintaining the Turso Cloud operations, including the Cloud API and data plane operations.

  • Improving the scalability of the Turso Cloud operations to support a 100x larger number of databases

You Might Be a Good Fit If You
  • Have written databases before, and/or other high-stakes low-level systems like Hypervisors, OS Kernels, storage devices, etc.

  • Have experience working with remote teams and Open Source communities.

  • Have a passion and experience for correct systems that work, and have the experience in the tools to make that happen: Deterministic Simulation Testing, formal verification methods, fuzz and differential testing, etc.

  • Have experience deploying, operating and debugging large scale software systems in production in cloud environments such as AWS & Kubernetes

  • Have experience improving the observability, reliability and performance of complex cloud systems.

  • Are comfortable working in Rust.

  • Are comfortable with LLM-assisted development and evals.

  • Are comfortable working with Embedded databases.

  • Communicate clearly across both technical and non-technical audiences.

  • Are energized by solving real-world problems for developers

  • Are comfortable navigating ambiguity and moving quickly

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.

  • ~400 team members

  • 60+ countries

  • 20+ languages spoken

  • Over $1B raised (including our $500M Series F)

  • 540,000+ community members

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.

What you need to know about the Melbourne Tech Scene

Home to 650 biotech companies, 10 major research institutes and nine universities, Melbourne is among one of the top cities for biotech. In fact, some of the greatest medical advancements were conceptualized and developed here, including Symex Lab's "lab-on-a-chip" solution that monitors hormones to predict ovulation for conception, and Denteric's vaccine for periodontal gum disease. Yet, the thousands of people working in the city's healthtech sector are just getting started, to say nothing of the tech advancements across all other sectors.
