Description
Veeva is a pioneer in building the industry cloud for life sciences, helping companies speed medicines to patients, and we are now expanding into new markets. As one of the fastest-growing SaaS companies in history, we surpassed $2B in revenue in our last fiscal year, with significant growth potential ahead. 

At the heart of Veeva are our values: Do the Right Thing, Customer Success, Employee Success, and Speed. We’re not just any public company – in 2021, we made history by becoming a public benefit corporation (PBC), legally committed to balancing the interests of customers, employees, society, and investors.

As a Work Anywhere company, you can work from home or in the office on any given day, choosing to work where you are most productive.

The Role

We’re looking for a pioneering engineer to help bring a new programming language to life! You’ll be at the forefront of building a VM with a bytecode interpreter and garbage collector, crafting a compiler from scratch, and creating a VS Code-integrated debugger. Join us and choose an existing grammar to create a powerful, flexible language ready for real-world applications!

What You'll Do

  • Collaborate closely with the VP of Engineering, Product, and CEO to shape the architecture and functionality of our new programming language
  • Build the language infrastructure from the ground up, using an existing language (C, C++, Java, Typescript, etc.) as a model for grammar and syntax
  • Define and implement the bytecode instruction set architecture, creating a VM with a basic garbage collector to execute it
  • Develop a compiler to translate code into bytecode and build a VS Code-integrated debugger
  • Continuously optimize performance and add language features and standard libraries to enhance functionality
  • Own all aspects of the language lifecycle, including design, development, profiling, testing, and ensuring top-quality code

Requirements

  • You’ve either built or significantly contributed to a language runtime in a production environment. (Significant experience as a graduate student will be considered)
  • Strong in C, C++, or Rust. You know your way around systems programming and have solid instincts for memory management
  • You’re articulate and can explain technical concepts in a way that’s easy for others to follow—even if they’re not runtime experts
  • You’re practical about language features, bringing in what’s valuable without being hung up on copying every feature from existing languages
  • You make sound technical decisions and write clean, maintainable code
  • You need to be in one of the North American time zones (Pacific, Mountain, Central, or Eastern) so we can sync up during core hours
