Job Description

Are you an experienced full-stack developer excited to work on the tools that help some of the world’s largest companies collaborate on and govern their GraphQL APIs? If you care deeply about end-user experience and want to contribute to building tools that you, as a developer, can have a voice in guiding the direction of, this could be the role for you!
As a Full Stack Product Engineer, you’ll be working on core features that enable organizations to manage complex, cross-team GraphQL schema changes, ensure endpoint security, and define custom validation rules for their workflows. You’ll build and optimize tools like Schema Proposals for cross-team collaboration, and Persisted Queries for API protection. This work will have a direct impact on how companies govern and scale their APIs, keeping them safe and adaptable to changing needs.
In this role, you’ll be involved in the entire product development lifecycle, with plenty of room to influence technical decisions, product direction, and the experience of developers across the globe. From conceptualizing new features to implementing them across the stack, you’ll have a hand in shaping the future of our GraphOS platform.

What You'll Do

  • Build collaboration and governance tools to help enterprise users manage schema changes and API operations with confidence.
  • Implement end-to-end features for our customers, using various languages in our tech stack such as React with TypeScript, Kotlin, Postgres, and more.
  • Work on core features like Schema Proposals, Persisted Queries, and Custom Checks, ensuring that organizations can safely and efficiently evolve their GraphQL schemas.
  • Collaborate with product managers and designers to define product experiences, and take high-level designs or user stories and bring them to life without requiring detailed technical specs or UX mockups.
  • Help design and manage schema changes, crafting best practices for schema building and scaling.
  • Participate in the on-call rotation to support operational excellence and ensure the reliability of the platform.
  • Share your work with the broader developer community, contributing to the growing ecosystem of GraphQL tools.

About You

  • You’ve worked on full-stack applications before and are comfortable working across the stack, especially in React and relational databases.
  • You’re passionate about building tools that meaningfully increase the productivity of others, and workflows that allow businesses to effectively collaborate on and grow their graph.
  • You’re skilled at independently translating broad concepts and user stories into practical, detailed functional solutions.
  • You thrive in distributed teams and love learning new technologies, keeping up with the latest trends in developer tooling and API design.
  • Bonus points if you’ve worked with Kotlin, Postgres, or similar technologies, and if you have experience with developer-facing tools.
At Apollo, we strive to provide competitive, market-informed compensation whilst ensuring consistency within the team in each country. We make hiring decisions based on your skills, experience, and our overall assessment of what we learned during the hiring process.
