Work with the best of the best... wherever in the world you live. This isn't your typical work from home job. Everyone works from the location they choose. We're spread out all over the world in more than 95 countries.
We track about 70 percent of our projects on P2-themed WordPress.com blogs, 25 percent in private chat rooms, and the rest on Slack. Because of the geographic variance, we're active 24/7. We care about the work you produce, not just the hours you put in.

Automattic builds some of the most widely used products on the web. WordPress.com powers millions of websites, WooCommerce runs a significant share of global e-commerce, Tumblr remains one of the internet's most distinctive social platforms, and Jetpack provides security and performance tools for WordPress sites. The company also builds Day One (journaling app), Simplenote (notes), and WordPress VIP (enterprise CMS for newsrooms and Fortune 500 companies).
Founded in 2005 by WordPress co-creator Matt Mullenweg, Automattic has been distributed from the start. The roughly 1,500-person team spans 81+ countries, collaborating asynchronously through internal WordPress-powered P2 blogs, Slack, and private chat rooms. There are no headquarters—the company operates around the clock across every time zone. All new hires spend their first two weeks in customer support, regardless of role, maintaining a direct connection to the people who use their products.
Automattic hires globally with a paid trial contract (typically two to six weeks) before extending full-time offers, giving both sides a realistic picture of what working together looks like. The company's open-source roots and long track record of distributed work make it one of the most established remote-first organizations in tech.
