Howdy WP Engineers! 👋 We can say “howdy” because our founder, Matt, is from Houston. As a company, we trust you to live and work wherever you want; we think the future is distributed.

We know there are a ton of great people at WP Engine; that’s why you’ve built the business you have. We’ve also heard that your Private Equity (PE) owners have been squeezing every last bit of juice out of the company, as Jason Bahl wrote:

While WP Engine has treated me well personally, the focus on open‑source contributions from the organization has declined during my time there. My time was also reallocated away from WPGraphQL and community projects as internal initiatives took priority.

Want some examples of how PE hurts all of us? See here, here, here, here, and here too.

There’s a reason WP Engine has been so successful. It’s you. We think you’re likely being undervalued in your current job. We believe you deserve to work in the best place possible, work the hours you choose, and work in a fully distributed async workforce.

Our mission is to democratize publishing and commerce so anyone with a story can tell it, and anyone with a product can sell it, regardless of income, gender, politics, language, or where they live in the world.

We believe in Open Source, and the vast majority of our work is available under the GPL. We strive to live by the Automattic Creed. Newsweek has certified us as a Most Loved Company for three years in a row.

We’re currently seeking talented individuals across a variety of roles, including engineering, design, marketing, sales, customer support, legal, and operations. Come work with us and enjoy world‑class benefits (a 3‑month sabbatical, 6‑month parental leave, professional coaching, and more).
