Software Engineer (IDE) - RStudio

paid / remote, USA / full-time


The RStudio IDE is a open-source, cross-platform integrated development environment for the R programming language, used by hundreds of thousands of people worldwide. Our mission is to make it possible for anyone, regardless of means, to harness the power of the R language to understand and improve the world through data.

As a member of the IDE team, you'll help us continue to deliver that vision by building new features for RStudio on a variety of platforms (Windows, Mac, Linux, and a web version). And while your primary deliverable will be source code, you won't just be typing C++ all day; you'll be involved with every step of the process, from gathering ideas and feedback to support and maintenance.
