Why you should join Codex
Codex makes CODEOWNERS.com, a platform that enables you and your team to automatically create & manage code ownership. Our GitHub App allows you to identify the best code owner - teams or individual contributors - for each file in your repository, all based on data. As your code base evolves, the app evaluates new changes and suggests updates to your code ownership.
Integrated with your GitHub organization details we make immediate changes when your teams change. Whether someone’s on PTO, you’ve done a re-org, or team members have departed - CODEOWNERS.com keeps all your files up to date.
We're a team of curious, hard-working, dedicated and talented individuals working together to build one of the most important tools in the engineering toolchain. We are looking for people that want to explore and jump out of their comfort zones to build with the very best.
