We know that productivity is personal, and trust our remote team to work wherever, whenever. We rely on a variety of tools to connect and collaborate across time zones.
We are a small, growing team, building privacy products used by millions of people worldwide. Regardless of what you do here, expect to make a difference at DuckDuckGo from day one!
A culture of building trust anchors our work philosophy. Transparency and autonomy enable empowered project management throughout the company, at all levels.
We're always looking for people who share our core values (building trust, questioning assumptions, and validating direction). We seek to exemplify these values in everything we do, and our non-traditional hiring process is no exception.
Rather than rely on interviews, we base our hiring decisions on demonstrable work performance. We achieve that through asking our candidates to complete paid projects, which largely resemble the type of challenges they would be solving at DuckDuckGo every day.
So how does this actually work?
We are happy to structure this process around a flexible timeline based on your schedule and current employment status. If at the end of this process you have doubts around working on a fully distributed team, we offer an option of doing a part-time internal project with us. This would give you a complete DuckDuckGo experience, before you decide if you would like to commit full-time.
