Job description

Join our mission

We're proud to work with many incredible companies, accelerating their ability to build their products.

We've spent years watching talented engineering teams lose momentum to the same frustrating bottleneck: waiting. Waiting for CI to finish. Waiting for builds to complete. Waiting for tests to run.

After experiencing this pain firsthand at companies of every size, we set out to build the developer infrastructure platform we'd always wanted to use. Something that would seamlessly integrate with our workflows and the tools teams already love—but make everything dramatically faster and more cost-effective.

Today, we're already accelerating hundreds of companies around the world, helping them ship features instead of waiting for infrastructure. We've built something that feels almost magical in its simplicity: change your runs-on line, mount your toolchain cache directory and suddenly your builds are 5x faster.

About the role

• Create high-quality technical content that showcases Namespace’s engineering

• Grow our presence across open source, X, and YouTube

• Iterate on Namespace’s developer documentation, guides, and examples as a first‑class product surface

Our culture

We're looking for people with grit—people who push through ambiguity, take ownership, and keep going when things get hard. You're deeply curious, driven to understand how things work and how they can be improved. Most importantly, you have a strong bias to execution: you don't wait for perfect conditions, you ship, learn, and iterate quickly. If you care about building, moving fast, and making real impact, you'll fit right in.

What we're looking for

• Strong technical foundation in software engineering

• You know what excites developers, what annoys them, and how to speak their language (our inspirations: Cursor, Modal, and Fly.io)

• Strong written and visual communication skills, including an interest in (or experience with) video

• Curiosity, high-agency, and a genuine passion to build something great

You can expect:

• Competitive salary and stock options

• Flexible working hours

• Market-leading parental leave

Life at Namespace Labs:

• We pride ourselves in being a small team of experts that can achieve a lot.

• We balance our long‑term vision with short‑term pragmatism.

• We believe in being fully transparent internally on how decisions are made, on how the company is doing, and we use that information to drive our decisions.
