OpenAlex | Software Engineer | Remote | Full-time | $150–200k USD
OpenAlex is an open index of the world's scholarly research: hundreds of millions of articles linked to authors, institutions, and topics, free via API and bulk download. Traffic runs about a billion API calls per month from universities, governments, and AI companies. The team behind it is a small nonprofit funded by grants and enterprise support.
We're hiring two engineers to work across the whole backend, which is SQL and PySpark on Databricks, Python/Flask APIs, Elasticsearch, and Cloudflare Workers. It's a small team with lots of autonomy. You'll notice what's missing, build it, ship it, and answer the tickets about it. We're AI-native, with agents writing all of our code.

- josecodea 25d ago"What will you do in your first week?" -> what do companies actually expect an applicant to answer here? These kind of questions make no sense to me in an online application.
- JS103410 16d agoDoes not belong on an online app if you ask me or in general. Still will see how it goes but not confident given the comments here.
- devzl 25d agoCreating an account to apply is a bit weird
- lxint 12d agoSeem like an acquisition channel imo.
