Speaking of Platform teams, I'm one of the co-founders of WunderGraph(https://wundergraph.com/) and we're working on a platform right now for API Integration. Are you open to any guests from a early startup?
ABOUT OUR TEAM AND CULTURE: As one of our early employees, you will become a product owner of our latest offering WunderGraph Cloud (Vercel for Backend). Culture comes first at WunderGraph, so there is no Hustle culture here. You will be judged on impact, not lines of code. We offer a competitive salary, unlimited PTO, free choice of equipment, hackathons, and more!
A common problem that you're faced with when building web applications is that each application requires a unique composition of internal and external APIs, databases, file storages and authentication providers. Once you've created such a composition, it needs to be enriched with business logic and data transformations using Middleware functions.
Companies keep inventing their own solutions to this problem, the most famous one is based on the BFF pattern (Backend for Frontend), where you create a specific backend for each individual frontend. But even with the BFF pattern, the flow is still not standardized, so companies are re-inventing the wheel over and over again.
WunderGraph set sail to solve this problem. We're building on open standards, like GraphQL, REST, OpenAPI OpenID Connect, OAuth2, AsyncAPI and more to create a standardized approach to creating API Compositions and Integrations.
We're taking this one step further by building the "Vercel for Backend". WunderGraph Cloud aims to simplify cloud native software development. We want to abstract Infrastructure away completely.

At WunderGraph, This is exactly how we found one of our technical co-founders and how we actually got our first hires.
We're huge advocates for Open Source and actively look at users who are contributing to our repo as potential hires.
This is a preview of WunderBase, an open source "Serverless" Database using SQLite as the storage and HTTP (GraphQL) as the interface.
