About Medusa

Medusa is the leading open-source commerce platform for Javascript developers. It provides the foundational building blocks for tomorrow’s e-commerce infrastructure by combining an open and headless architecture with a strong developer experience.

So far, Medusa has become one of the fastest-growing projects on GitHub. The project soared to +10,000 GitHub stars, +2,000 community members, and +10,000 projects created in less than a year. Companies - from global start-ups to larger enterprises - have adopted Medusa, with many already using it in production. In the Summer of 2022, Medusa closed an 8mUSD seed round and is now looking to invest heavily in growing the team.

We strive to build exceptional products, and that requires an exceptional team. We focus on supporting each others’ personal growth and encourage experimentation, curiosity and ownership in all aspects of our work. This allows us to push the bar for creativity in our problem-solving and leads to better solutions for our community.
