To try to give some context as the job post on the website is pretty dry
In addition to all the ocaml we use internally for our crawler and data processing, ahrefs is heavily invested in Melange to compile ocaml to javascript. With it the company is also putting resources to maintain the projects related to reasonml. Some recent posts from @jchavarri and @davesnx:
A bunch of commonly used tools and libraries that you probably have heard about are maintained by ahrefs or with the help of ahrefs
- https://sketch.sh/
- GitHub - ahrefs/atd: Static types for JSON APIs
- GitHub - ahrefs/ocaml-sodium: Binding to libsodium 1.0.9+, a shared library wrapper for djb's NaCl
- GitHub - davesnx/styled-ppx: Type-safe styled components for ReScript with type-safe CSS
- GitHub - ygrek/ocaml-extlib: Extended Standard Library for OCaml
There’s more at Ahrefs · GitHub
When not maintaining we try to contribute. One example is ocaml-lsp
We are also sponsoring projects:
- GitHub - owlbarn/owl: Owl - OCaml Scientific Computing @ http://ocaml.xyz
- OCaml Jupyter | An OCaml kernel for Jupyter notebook
Conferences:

And last but not least the OCaml Software Foundation https://ocaml-sf.org/
