Remote
Brave is on a mission to protect the human right to privacy online. We’ve built a free web browser that blocks creepy third-party ads and trackers by default, a private search engine with a truly independent index, a browser-native crypto wallet, and a private ad network (opt-in!) that directly rewards you for your attention. And we’re just getting started. Already 110+ million people have switched to Brave for a faster, more private web. Millions more switch every month.
The internet is a sea of privacy-harmful ads, hackers, and echo chambers. Big Tech makes huge profits off our data, and tells us what’s true and what’s not. Brave is fighting back. Join us!
We are hiring a staff engineer on the Brave security and privacy team! You will help keep our users safe across Brave’s products, including Brave browser and Brave Search. Responsibilities include:
Brave is widely-recognized as one of the best browsers for security and privacy, doing industry-leading work with a team that’s a fraction of the size of Big Tech-supported browsers.

Brave is Fully Remote and hires globally. Its open roles are posted for locations including Anywhere, Remote, the USA, North America, and the USA and EU. One recent Senior Ad Sales Director role, for example, considered candidates based in the US, Canada, the UK, Germany, or France.
Most are. Brave operates as a fully remote team with no office, but a small number of roles are location-bound exceptions, such as a UK-based hybrid IT Support Engineer role and an onsite Workplace Operations Coordinator role in London.
Brave lists unlimited paid vacation, an equity grant for every employee, a generous 401(k) and regional retirement plans, travel and conference budgets for professional development, and generous home-office stipends.
Only partially. Some US roles include a compensation line in the job posting, but most engineering and other roles do not display a range. For instance, a Senior Ad Sales Director listing showed a 150-160K x 2 OTE figure, while many other roles list no range at all.
People who are self-directed and comfortable with an async, low-meeting rhythm. Brave runs a flat structure with minimal meetings, so work leans on individual ownership. Because every employee receives equity, it also suits people who want a direct stake in the company's privacy mission.
