What You’ll Do:
[What is marimo]
Atmarimo, we’re on a mission to make the world’s best open-source programming environment for working with data, together with a world-class, scalable, and performant cloud-hosted counterpart. marimo is a reinvention of the Python notebook — it feels like a next-gen reactive Python notebook, but is stored as pure Python that can be versioned with Git, deployed as a data app, run as a script, and reused as a module. Incubated initially with scientists at Stanford, marimo is now used by leading companies, labs, and universities around the world, with millions of downloads since launch and over 17,000 stars on our GitHub repository.
On the marimo team, we believe that the tools we use shape the way we think — better tools, for better minds. If you're passionate about developer tools, thrive in ambiguity, enjoy solving challenging engineering problems at scale, and yearn for greenfield problems, you'll fit right in.
[Description of the Team]
The marimo **core open source **team develops and maintains the marimo open source notebook. Today, this includes the marimo editor frontend, the marimo backend which includes the core dataflow compiler and runtime, an intermediary server, the marimo library, and an ecosystem of related projects, such as a VS Code extension, codemirror extensions, and more. This team has the crucial role of shepherding the future of one of Python's fastest growing and most impactful open-source projects.
