At Speakeasy weâre building the API supply chain. We aim to give all of our customers a stripe-like developer experience through best in class developer surfaces and platform to manage API release and lifecycle. Great developer experience drives API adoption, reduces the burden on support and engineering and paves the way for emergent use cases.
We write code that writes code. Our tools are generally Golang and Typescript. We use LLMs where possible to super charge our product experience.
The code that we generate ends up as GitHub Open Source Repositories for SDKs of our customerâs API, Terraform Providers and other developer surfaces. We build virality through stamping these repositories that we produce with âPowered By Speakeasyâ. We call these Managed SDKs .
Our primary DX is a CLI. We have a web interface (React, Typescript, Golang) to help show state.
We have a website, docsite and blog built off of NextraJS (NextJS), MDX, Typescript and React.
Our customers love us and promote us online.
This is a opportunity with a Massive TAM. Every REST API everywhere
We have high revenue per customer, very significant virality and natural means for product distribution.
We build cool stuff that is super useful for our customers.
We power the first experience an end user has when interacting with an API.
We're a tight night group of 10 who care deeply about developer experience and driving value for our customers.
Weâre looking for polyglots, who can understand and support customers in whatever language and technology they use to build and integrate API products â the more languages, the better.
Our team is founded on the principle of context over control. We ship code quickly and continuously to production, and trust each other to exercise autonomy to evolve our product and processes to ever-better match our company goals.
We believe that in-person collaboration is strategically important for a company at our stage, while also recognising that amazing team members can be found anywhere. To balance the two, there are no constraints on employee location, but we do meet up and spend a week together roughly every quarter.
We're backed by top-tier VCs and a bench of angel investors who occupy leadership positions at key software engineering firms. Weâre based in San Francisco and London, and are looking to hire remote-first in the US or UK with a preference for PST and GMT time zones.
Autonomy, over Consensus
We trust individuals to make decisions, own the outcomes, and gather data from others where appropriate
Execution, over Perfection
We prioritise and execute. We donât over-analyse, and are comfortable moving ahead despite ambiguity
Transparency, over Illusion
We are ambitious in our goals, but honest about our progress. We donât shy away from asking questions or pushing back when something doesnât make sense
Through customer value our ego is lost
We make decisions by focussing relentlessly on customer value â and accept if this means changing our individual ideas. Customer success is team success.
