Markdown/MDX/Slate Engineer Full Time

Description:

  • At our core, ReadMe is a documentation platform, and we aim to be the best place on the internet for writing it!
  • Our editor is unique because it’s proudly Markdown-first, while still giving the writer a preview of what the content will look like live.
  • We want it to be incredibly powerful (supporting MDX and reusable content) while still feeling lightweight and relaxing to use.
  • We’re a small team of humans (and one owl) working together to do big things, and we’re growing fast.
  • Since we’re a startup, you’ll make a big impact on ReadMe both in the daily responsibilities of your role and beyond.
  • ReadMe helps more than 5,000 leading startups and tech companies build beautiful, personalized, and interactive developer hubs.
  • If you’ve ever visited the developer docs for Webflow, Notion, or Nvidia you’ve used ReadMe!
  • We love what we do because it’s so much more than just documentation. We’re providing tools for teams to build a better developer experience and make their products and APIs easier to use.
  • We’ve got great support from our investors at Accel who led our Series A.
  • Our interview process reflects the open, caring, and whimsical culture we want to maintain as we scale.

Responsibilities:

  • Help develop and improve our Markdown editor.
  • Work on our core Markdown engine and upcoming MDX support.
  • Implement and build open-source MDX components for editors.
  • Understand and implement ways for companies to manage large amounts of changes to their docs.

Requirements:

  • Excited about building a world-class editor experience.
  • Have experience with Slate and React.
  • Are excited to juggle the benefits of both WYSIWYG and markdown.
  • Aren’t scared off by building tools for managing merge conflicts.
  • Enjoy digging into user’s workflows and optimizing them.

Benefits:

  • Unlimited PTO with a three-week minimum.
  • Fully covered medical, dental, and vision insurance for you, and your dependents.
  • A One Medical membership.
  • A wellness stipend for therapy of up to $350 per month for up to 6 months.
  • A wellness stipend of up to $150 per month.
  • One-to-one donation matching of up to $1,000 per year.
  • Twelve weeks of paid parental leave after the birth or adoption of a child.
