Reddit is poised to rapidly innovate and grow like no other time in its history. We’re currently hiring across three distinct teams:
Ad Safety & Verification Team
The mission of the Ads Safety & Verification team is to protect the Reddit ads ecosystem so that users have a safe ads experience and legitimate advertisers trust Reddit. This team builds full stack, high scale products that span Reddit’s consumer-facing apps and ads systems. They own integrations with metrics verification and brand safety partners and operate services that scale to reliably handle tens of millions of requests per day.
Ads Creative Management (ACM) Team
The Ads Creative Management team focuses on the tools and systems advertisers use to create and manage their ad content. From images and videos to headlines and full post creatives, they enable efficient creative management and innovation across the campaign lifecycle. They work closely with AI teams to provide intelligent content suggestions and automation, helping advertisers launch high-quality campaigns faster and more effectively.
Brand Innovation Team
The Brand Innovation team drives the development of new ad formats that help advertisers maximize reach and brand impact. They focus on high-visibility, awareness-driven solutions that create memorable experiences for Reddit users. By delivering guaranteed placements and engaging ad interactions, they support major brand initiatives and help advertisers achieve measurable outcomes. Their work includes evolving existing formats and launching entirely new ones to keep Reddit’s ad offerings fresh and competitive.
This is a generalist mid-level backend position within the Ads Organization. Ads is the fuel that powers Reddit’s mission. As a backend engineer on the team, candidates might work on:
Technologies used on the team include:
Mid-level engineers are expected to absorb best practices and learn exceptionally quickly while being effective core contributors. Engineers at this level must be able to code independently, but may work with senior engineers on the design of complex solutions. The most important skills an engineer at this level must possess are 1) coachability and an eagerness to grow, 2) deep passion for coding, and 3) excellent independent learning skills, all while operating as a fully functioning member of an engineering team.
In select roles and locations, the interviews will be recorded, transcribed and summarized by artificial intelligence (AI). You will have the opportunity to opt out of recording, transcription and summarization prior to any scheduled interviews.
During the interview, we will collect the following categories of personal information: Identifiers, Professional and Employment-Related Information, Sensory Information (audio/video recording), and any other categories of personal information you choose to share with us.

We will not sell your personal information or disclose it to any third party for their marketing purposes. We will delete any recording of your interview promptly after making a hiring decision.

Current openings list remote eligibility in the United States, Canada (British Columbia and Ontario), the United Kingdom, Ireland, Germany, and the Netherlands. Reddit also keeps offices open in cities like San Francisco, New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, Toronto, London, Berlin, Amsterdam, Dublin, and Sydney, so remote employees near a hub can drop in whenever they like.
Reddit lists workspace and home office benefits among its published perks, so equipment and home office costs are supported, and its Ireland careers site additionally names a monthly cell phone allowance. Reddit publishes no amount for either, and no coworking allowance appears on any page Reddit controls, so treat any specific figure you see elsewhere as unconfirmed.
Reddit publishes more than four months of paid parental leave for all parents, with no split between birthing and non-birthing parents, alongside family planning funds. Time off is flexible rather than accrued, and everyone gets company-wide Reddit Global Days Off on top of it. Personal and professional development funds round out the package. Reddit publishes no amount for the family planning or development funds.
Yes for US roles. Reddit shares base salary ranges on all US-based job postings regardless of state, using standardized pay bands by function, level, and location. Compensation also includes restricted stock units for all employees and commission for sales roles.
Engineering, data science, product, and security roles are posted overwhelmingly as remote, especially in the US and Canada. Sales and some revenue roles are tied to office hubs such as New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Chicago, Toronto, London, Berlin, and Amsterdam, so expect an in-office component there.
