Continue enables developers to ship faster with Continuous AI. The future of coding isn't writing more code. It's delegating the boring parts, so you can build the interesting stuff.

Developers are drowning in AI-generated code. Continuous AI solves this by automating the workflows around code, not just the code itself. The role of the software engineer is shifting from prompting AI to designing processes that run automatically.

With hundreds of thousands of users, Continue is loved by developers worldwide at organizations ranging from small startups to Fortune 500 companies. Continue has raised $5.1M from Heavybit, Y Combinator, and angel investors. The company was founded in 2023 and is based in San Francisco

We believe the time is now to create a future where developers are amplified, not automated

Continue is seeking an intense and fast-learning engineer to help us build our open-source product, starting by resolving and learning about user problems on GitHub and Discord. In this role, you will shape our open-source IDE extensions by designing, building, and maintaining a product loved by many, including yourself.
