Working at Scribd

We're a small (and growing!) team located in the heart of downtown San Francisco, close to CalTrain, BART and MUNI. Our small team is passionate, talented, motivated and fun. You'll often find us holding group brainstorming sessions, eating lunch and dinner as a team, playing winner-take-all ping-pong games and celebrating our successes along the way. We offer competitive salaries, benefits, generous equity stakes, flexible work hours, free food from local restaurants and a stocked break room.

Things we care about in our employees are creativity, passion, and a drive to create new things. We like people who thrive as part of a dedicated and innovative team, love their work, and aren't afraid of tough challenges. Scribd's environment is very entrepreneurial, and we have a tendency to hire people who have started their own companies before (although this isn't a requirement). For hackers, we like people who have built cool things on their own, and care more about how you think and not what programming languages you know right now.
