Developer Relations
Graphite builds consumer-quality tools for modern software engineering teams, so they can ship faster and create amazing products.
Our product
Graphite is the code review platform for the age of AI. Thousands of engineers at high-growth companies like Shopify, Datadog, Snowflake, Asana, and Ramp use Graphite on top of their GitHub repos every day to ship pull requests faster. Graphite takes best-in-class workflows and tooling from companies like Google and Meta and extends them to help engineers write and review code collaboratively with increasingly capable AI agents.
Our company
We’re a small-but-mighty team of 40+ based in Manhattan in the heart of Soho, with a passionate and rapidly growing group of users at top engineering orgs like Datadog, Vercel, Ramp, and Snowflake.
We've raised a $52mil Series B (featured in TechCrunch) led by Christine Esserman, following a previous $20mil Series A from Peter Levine at Andreessen Horowitz (who led GitHub's Series A). Other investors include folks like Tom Preston-Werner (founder of GitHub), Sam Lambert (Planetscale CEO & ex-GitHub CTO), Sebastian Markbåge (creator of React), and many more.
Our culture centers on putting people first, applying science and craft, practicing disciplined ambition, and giving ownership - both literally (with equity) and in the responsibility and scope you’ll have as a part of our early team. Outside of work you’ll find us brewing espresso drinks, producing music, or practicing yoga. We can’t wait to see what you’ll add to the mix!
