• Organize and implement processes related to the deprecation cycle for the IntelliJ Platform API.

We’ll be happy to have you on our team if you have:

• Extensive experience in platform architecture and systems design
• A strong understanding of JVM concurrency
• Knowledge of Kotlin coroutines
• Strong technical writing and documentation skills
• Critical thinking and architectural foresight
• The ability to organize and perform large-scale refactoring in monorepos

We’d be especially thrilled if you have:

• Experience building developer tools
• Experience with different UI frameworks
• Knowledge of database internals
• Experience working with network applications

Why join JetBrains?

• Strong base salary. We offer competitive pay that reflects your skills and experience.
• Flexible work location. Enjoy the freedom to work from home or from the office.
• Remote work. Spend up to 30 days per year working remotely from abroad.
• Extra time off. More days to relax, recharge, and do the things you love.
• Medical insurance allowance. Enjoy peace of mind for you and your family.
• Learning and development opportunities. Access to conferences, courses, and language classes.
• Language classes. Pick up the local language or sharpen your English skills.
• Fuel your day. Enjoy a hot meal or receive a lunch allowance on workdays.

At JetBrains, code is our passion. Ever since we started, back in 2000, we have been striving to make the most effective developer tools on earth. By automating routine checks and corrections, our tools speed up production, freeing developers to grow, discover, and create.

With hundreds of thousands of users around the world, IntelliJ IDEA is the best development environment for Java and other programming languages. We have created several other IDEs and additional products for working with code, such as Qodana, based on the IntelliJ Platform.

We want to develop our platform, make it more flexible, and adapt it to various tasks and scenarios. Recently, we’ve implemented several major changes relating to our in-IDE licensing subsystem. These include new free license options and the release of AI Assistant and Junie. Now, we need to reimagine and modernize our licensing subsystem entirely.

Requirements: 

• Experience working on Java or Kotlin projects.
• The ability to solve complex technical problems in real products with a wide range of customers.
• Knowledge of algorithms and data structures.
• English language proficiency sufficient for correspondence, including with end users.

Our ideal candidate would have: 

• Experience working with profilers.
• Experience creating and designing APIs.
• Experience writing plugins for IntelliJ IDEA.
• Knowledge of how code analysis tools work.
• Knowledge and experience using other programming languages besides Java and Kotlin.

How we work:

• We store our source code in Git, with some of the code stored publicly on GitHub. (https://github.com/JetBrains/intellij-community).
• Most of our source code is written in Java and Kotlin. However, there are also small pieces that are written in Rust, C, and C++.
• To organize our team’s work, we use JetBrains tools, including Space for code reviews, TeamCity for automated testing and product builds, and YouTrack for bug tracking.
