Apollo GraphQL

Apollo helps developers and engineering teams build better software faster with a declarative, graph-based approach to API orchestration. The Apollo GraphOS platform provides the infrastructure to unify APIs into a single, discoverable supergraph, enabling teams to query data from anywhere and ship new experiences with speed and confidence. Companies like Netflix, Expedia, Peloton, DoorDash, and Zillow rely on Apollo to power their API infrastructure.

Founded in 2016, Apollo embraced distributed work from day one and has no physical offices. The company is built around asynchronous communication, with detailed documentation, recorded meetings for those in different time zones, and a culture where managers proactively accommodate global schedules. Quarterly gatherings in San Francisco bring the team together for strategic planning and connection.

Engineers work with a modern stack including GraphQL, JavaScript/TypeScript, Node.js, Rust, and Kotlin, with high autonomy and a focus on outcomes rather than hours. Apollo offers flexible time off, comprehensive health coverage across US, Canada, and UK, equity for all employees, and a home office stipend to support remote work.
