The AI orchestration of your wildest imagination.
n8n is the open workflow orchestration platform built for the new era of AI. We give technical teams the freedom of code with the speed of no-code, so they can automate faster, smarter, and without limits. Backed by a fiercely inventive community and 500+ builder-approved integrations, we’re changing the way people bring systems together and scale ideas for impact.
Since our founding in 2019, we’ve grown into a diverse team of over 260 - working across Europe and the US, connected by a shared builder spirit and with our centre of gravity in Berlin. Along the way, we’ve:
Cultivated a community of more than 650,000 active developers and builders
Earned 190K+ GitHub stars, making us one of the world’s Top 40 most popular projects
Backed by top investors, from Sequoia’s first German seed to our SAP's recent strategic investment - bringing us to a $5.2bn valuation
That’s the company we’ve built. Now we’d love to see what youcan build. If you’re applying, try n8n out - whether you’re technical or not - and share a screenshot of your first workflow with us. The easiest place to start is here: app.n8n.cloud/register.
We’re in a defining moment of an incredible journey. Come and build with us.
🎯 Your main goal will be to build and ship end-to-end TypeScript product features that make n8n safer, more scalable, and more programmable for enterprise customers — helping large organizations run business-critical automation with confidence.
To do so, you’ll own outcomes across the full stack and stay close to users, product, security, and enterprise-scale requirements:
Enterprise product ownership
Own product surfaces from discovery to delivery across areas like identity, access, governance, APIs, observability, environments, and enterprise integrations.
Ship high-quality features fast across the TypeScript stack, balancing usability, security, performance, and maintainability.
Partner closely with Product to translate complex enterprise customer needs into clear scopes, technical trade-offs, and measurable outcomes.
Fullstack delivery across platform and product
Build and evolve customer-facing experiences in Vue or React for admins, developers, and enterprise users managing n8n at scale.
Develop scalable Node.js services and APIs that power authentication, permissions, workflow lifecycle management, observability, integrations, and partner use cases.
Move fluidly between frontend and backend codebases to unblock your team and keep momentum high across complex product areas.
Secure, scalable enterprise foundations
Build capabilities that help organizations control who can do what across n8n, including authentication, provisioning, RBAC, credential infrastructure, and secrets management.
Contribute to safe workflow delivery through environments, source control, versioning, testing, CI/CD validation, and deployment workflows.
Improve governance, observability, auditability, and runtime controls so admins can understand, troubleshoot, and enforce how n8n is used.
APIs, integrations, and extensibility
Build and maintain enterprise-grade integrations, nodes, SDK capabilities, and execution patterns that support automation at scale.
Design APIs, embed capabilities, and multi-instance management features that make n8n programmable for partners, developers, and large customers.
Instrument features end-to-end so you can measure impact, debug real-world behavior, and continuously improve reliability for business-critical workflows.
Teams you could join
We’re currently hiring across multiple enterprise product engineering teams, including IAM, Enterprise Nodes, API & OEM, and Governance & Observability. During the interview process you’ll be matched to a team based on your strengths and what you’re most excited to build.

🚢 SDLC and deployment workflows: You’ve built features around environments, Git-based workflows, versioning, testing, CI/CD, release controls, or approval gates.
🔌 Integrations and APIs: You’ve built integrations, APIs, SDKs, automation platforms, or developer tooling that helps others extend a product.
📊 Observability and governance: You’ve worked with audit logs, OpenTelemetry, Prometheus, Grafana, SIEM integrations, admin controls, usage insights, or runtime policies.
🤝 OEM or partner platform experience: You’ve contributed to embeddable products, partner platforms, multi-instance management, air-gapped deployments, or enterprise developer portals.
🛠️ OSS and community involvement: You contribute to open-source, build side projects, or participate in developer communities.
Why join us?
