On-site · Amsterdam, North Holland, The Netherlands or Istanbul, Istanbul, Turkey
Job Summary
Bare Developer role focusing on writing and shipping native C/C++ addons that bridge platform APIs into JavaScript for a 100% remote, worldwide team. Responsibilities include designing, implementing, and shipping bare-* native modules (e.g., bare-bluetooth, bare-tcp, bare-fs, bare-crypto), maintaining cross-platform builds (macOS, Linux, Android NDK, iOS Xcode), managing cross-compilation toolchains, contributing to the Bare runtime core, debugging native addon issues across OS and devices, and maintaining tests. Required skills include strong C programming across platforms, advanced JavaScript with Node.js internals, experience building native addons (N-API, node-gyp), familiarity with libuv, experience with macOS/Linux/Android/iOS toolchains, cross-compilation, reading large C/C++ codebases, and excellent written communication. The role emphasizes independent ownership of modules end-to-end, collaboration with product teams, participation in weekly status calls and onboarding materials, and the opportunity to work on runtime ecosystems that span mobile, desktop, servers, and constrained devices. Important notes warn about recruitment scams and direct applicants to official channels.
