Supabase

Supabase, founded in 2020, builds the Postgres development platform: a backend that aims to be both powerful and simple to use. Each Supabase project provides a complete Postgres database alongside integrated backend services - built-in authentication, instant auto-generated APIs, file storage, edge functions, real-time subscriptions and vector search - designed to work together from day one. The company positions itself as an open-source alternative to Firebase, and operates in the developer tools and backend-as-a-service sector.

Its technical work spans several domains: databases (Postgres), authentication, APIs, storage, serverless compute at the edge, real-time data, vector search for AI embeddings, and developer tooling. Supabase reports a developer community of more than 1.7 million, and describes that community - along with its open-source roots - as central to how the product is shaped.

The company is fully remote, with team members in 25 countries, and has raised more than $116 million. It hires people who care deeply about developer experience and operational excellence, and states a mission of making backend development more accessible, more portable and more enjoyable.
