Reddit | Backend, Frontend, iOS, Android, Machine Learning, Managers, Product, Video | SF, NYC, Los Angeles, Austin, Chicago, Ottawa, Seattle & Remote, Dublin (Ireland), Australia, Berlin (Germany), Amsterdam (Netherlands) | Full-time

Reddit is growing fast. We have raised $410m in our Series F funding to make strategic investments in the platform including video, advertising, consumer products, and expanding into international markets. We are hiring across the board, I want to specifically stress out the jobs for video product which is currently a really exciting area to work and innovate in.

For any Golang enthusiasts out there: we are writing more and more of our services in Go. We have interesting challenges in scaling, data pipelines and building the foundation for a series of new products.

Reddit does not have geographic compensation adjustments: you can work from anywhere and receive compensation tied to pay ranges of high-cost areas such as the Bay Area (https://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/article/Reddit-permanent-work...)

There are 257 open positions with titles that lead with "Senior" {Scientist|Engineer|Manager}. That seems extreme. Does no element of the organization develop from within?

Maybe this is why they are looking for five Retention Managers... one a Senior...

Do you hire people anywhere in the world? I'm in India and would love to apply.

Only where we are incorporated. Watch out for any job positions with location in India.

Hey! Is there a full list of EU countries you are incorporated in? Looking through Greenhouse, I can see at least Ireland and the Netherlands but wondering if there are others. Thanks in advance!

I am not sure, but there is Germany and Belgium too.

Would you hire senior engineers who don't have much experience directly with your stack but are interested in jumping ship?
Re:Ask HN: Who is hiring? (December 2021) by platzhirsch on Thursday December 02, 2021 @08:04PM (#29425341)
Yes, the technical stack does not matter as much as the concepts they embody. We believe everything can be learnt but depending on the roles there are skills like system design, distributed system, etc that should apply independent of the technology.

Are these locations you have offices? I live in Amsterdam but require a work visa and would love to continue working from here.

At least we are incorporated there. I cannot promise anything regarding visa-related questions but I would assume a visa transfer should be doable. Let me know if you want to chat about this.

Seems there's only senior or staff roles :/
Re:Ask HN: Who is hiring? (December 2021) by platzhirsch on Thursday December 02, 2021 @06:18AM (#29414776)
Sometimes there is room to also hire non-senior folk or the job posting for it is still missing. You can always find it a try.
