About Dreambase 💭

Dreambase is the AI-native analytics platform for Supabase. We connect directly to your Supabase database and let AI agents generate dashboards, reports, and insights automatically — no data team, no pipelines, no SQL required. We are a small, fast-moving team building something genuinely new at the intersection of AI, analytics, and the Supabase ecosystem.

Your Mission

Build the developer-facing surface of Dreambase. You will own the CLI, the public API, and the integration layer that lets developers connect Dreambase to their tools, workflows, and infrastructure programmatically. You are building for an audience of engineers who have high standards and zero patience for bad DX.

What you'll do

• Own the CLI — Design and build a CLI that developers actually want to use. Fast, intuitive, well-documented, and opinionated in the right ways.

• Build the Public API — Architect and implement a clean, well-structured REST API that gives developers programmatic access to every Dreambase capability. Design it for the long term.

• Power the Integration Marketplace — Build the systems that let developers connect external APIs via OpenAPI and Swagger URLs and configure MCP servers inside Dreambase.

• Define the Developer Experience — Own the end-to-end experience of a developer integrating with Dreambase. Every error message, every response shape, every default matters.

• Write the Docs — Great APIs ship with great documentation. You care about both equally.

• Keep Up With the Ecosystem — The MCP and API integration landscape moves fast. Stay ahead of it and bring the best patterns into Dreambase.

What we're looking for

• API Design Instincts — You have designed and shipped public APIs and you have strong opinions about what makes them good. You think about backwards compatibility, versioning, and developer ergonomics before you write the first line.

• CLI Craft — You have built CLI tools and you know what separates a great one from a frustrating one.

• TypeScript and Node.js Depth — Comfortable owning complex TypeScript codebases and building reliable server-side systems.

• Supabase Familiarity — You know how Supabase works under the hood: PostgREST, auth, storage, Edge Functions, MCP.

• Documentation Discipline — You write clear, accurate technical documentation as part of shipping, not as an afterthought.

• Developer Empathy — You have been the developer on the other end of a bad API and you use that experience to build better ones.

Bonus points for

• Experience building developer tooling, SDKs, or CLI products used in production

• Familiarity with MCP (Model Context Protocol) and agentic API patterns

• Experience designing OpenAPI specs and building OpenAPI-driven systems

• Open-source contributions to developer tools or infrastructure

• Experience with authentication systems and API security at scale
