Holepunch is a technology platform that enables developers to build serverless, peer-to-peer applications, aiming to create a more decentralized and private internet.
Employee count: 1-10
At Holepunch, we’re building a peer-to-peer development platform that lets you build apps that don’t require infrastructure. No servers whatsoever. Holepunch apps can be deployed to users directly from the machine you develop on, and scale effortlessly. Since servers are removed from the equation, users retain full control over the data they create, keeping things maximally private. The benefits of peer-to-peer are innumerable, and we envision a world where everything is peer-to-peer by default. We’ve started demonstrating what this future will look like with Keet, our P2P communications app.
Holepunch is built on a battle-hardened, Node.js-based technology stack we’ve built called Hypercore, which provides the basic machinery for establishing peer-to-peer connections and replicating data in a fashion similar to BitTorrent.
We're big fans of Node.js — Holepunch is built on it. During this next growth phase, we could use your help to expand and strengthen our core P2P networking and storage primitives. Our P2P technology covers a wide surface area, so if the parts of this following tech profile fits you, we’d love to talk to you.
Extensive knowledge of P2P protocols (Kademlia, BitTorrent, libp2p, hypercore)
Demonstrable experience optimizing network protocols for performance
Advanced JavaScript skills for implementing high-performance networking code
Deep understanding of UDP and TCP/IP networking, including NAT traversal techniques
Experience implementing custom binary protocols and serialization formats
Familiarity with cryptographic primitives for secure P2P communication
Experience with performance profiling and optimization of networked systems
5+ years experience building production P2P systems or distributed systems
Experience optimizing JavaScript for low-latency networking applications
Knowledge of V8 internals and JavaScript performance characteristics
Experience with libuv and asynchronous I/O in C
Contributions to open-source P2P projects or networking libraries
Experience building reliable systems on unreliable networks
Experience with Node.js native addons and bridging between JS and C

At Holepunch, we are at the forefront of a technological revolution, engineering a new internet paradigm that champions decentralization and user sovereignty. Through our groundbreaking open-source platform, we are empowering developers to construct peer-to-peer applications that operate entirely without servers, thus eliminating the exorbitant infrastructure costs and censorship vulnerabilities that plague the current centralized web. Our core mission is to dismantle the digital monopolies and return control of data and communication channels to the individual. We are challenging the fundamental notion that servers are an indispensable component of online interaction, paving the way for a more resilient, private, and free digital world. By providing a comprehensive suite of modular Javascript tools, we are making P2P development accessible to a broader community of creators, enabling them to build everything from secure messaging apps to resilient VPNs.
Our innovation is anchored in the Hypercore stack, a suite of peer-to-peer, scalable, and cryptographically sound distributed systems. This includes Hypercore for secure, append-only logs; Hyperswarm for robust peer discovery and connectivity; and Hyperdrive for decentralized, real-time file systems. These foundational technologies power our flagship products, such as Pear Runtime, a comprehensive P2P development and deployment tool, and Keet, a fully encrypted video calling and messaging application that showcases the power of direct, unmediated communication. We believe that by open-sourcing our technology, we are not just building a platform but fostering a global community of developers united by the vision of a truly decentralized internet. We are committed to continuously evolving our open-source repositories, ensuring they remain at the cutting edge and serve the ever-growing needs of a community dedicated to building a more equitable and censorship-resistant digital future.
