If you love the open web, open source, radical problem ownership, and simple solutions, Automattic is probably the place for you.
About you:
- You’re endlessly curious about how things work – infrastructure, language and libraries, product and business.
- Understanding the problem we're solving and how it helps the user is your first priority.
- Simple solutions are your favorite, even if they’re boring. For example, using PHP as the core of our backend makes sense to you.
- You love debugging a stubborn issue. Friends and colleagues call you when they hit a wall.
- You describe your growth as an engineer in terms of what you've learned instead of what positions you've held.
- You work across the stack, whether you've been tasked with it or not. A new corner of the (even legacy) codebase is a fun challenge, not something to avoid.
About us:
- No formal engineering titles or levels.
- Moving between teams and projects is a straightforward, not a bureaucratic or political process.
- We offer autonomy, flexibility, and many opportunities to have an impact on the users, the business, and the organization.
- Most of our products operate at a significant scale, both in terms of users, impact, and infrastructure.
- We believe open-source is one of the most powerful ideas of our generation.
- We value diversity and know that different perspectives will lead to innovative and creative thinking.
