Job description

We are looking for an experienced developer to help us shape the future of the Kotlin ecosystem.


As part of our team, you will:

  • Create and maintain foundational libraries for Kotlin core primitives that are used by hundreds of thousands of developers

  • Become an expert in specific domains of computer science and software engineering

  • Be part of a design committee that decides how the Kotlin API should be shaped

  • Participate in creating standard Kotlin tools, specifications and language features


Preferable:

  • JVM development experience down to the implementation details of the Java standard library

  • Strong understanding of the domain you've been working with

  • Ability to write design documents for complex systems with strong reasoning behind each trade-off and technical decision

  • Experience in performance engineering or API design

In general, if you see yourself reading a Unicode standard, exploring how five other languages transform strings to bytes, figuring out why some Oceania islands changed their timezone from -10:00 to +14:00 and whether it should be expressed in the API of Kotlin timezones, optimizing interface hierarchy to be more JIT-friendly and is not afraid of re-iterating over documentation a multitude of times, you won't get bored in our team.


Benefits:

  • Fascinating work in a friendly team.

  • A well-being package.

  • A flexible working schedule.

  • 30 days of paid vacation (local regulations apply).

  • Excellent opportunities for professional and personal development, including travel to professional conferences worldwide, access to the LinkedIn Learning platform, and more.

  • Additional benefits include a daily meal allowance, health insurance for you and your family, Multisport Card, language courses, and much more.

  • Hybrid work from your home in any location where JetBrains' offices are.

  • Form of employment - employment contract (umowa o pracę).
