About Stack Exchange

Our goal is to make the Internet a better place to get expert answers to your questions.  We’ve done a lot of that with Stack Overflow, but we think there’s still more to do.

We believe in hiring smart people and getting out of their way.  We have an office in New York with some of the best amenities of any New York startup, and we have people who work remotely all over the world.  We keep meetings and ceremony to an absolute minimum.

Benefits:

  • Flexible hours
  • 20 days vacation + national holidays
  • Ridiculous health insurance (no copay)
  • Insanely great workstations, chairs, and desks
  • All-expenses-paid conference of your choice once per year
  • Gym membership reimbursement
  • Free catered lunch and monthly metrocards (NY office)
  • Employees will never be poked with a sharp stick

Oh yeah, and...

Stack Exchange, Inc. does not discriminate in employment matters on the basis of race, color, religion, gender, national origin, age, military service eligibility, veteran status, sexual orientation, marital status, disability, or any other protected class. We support workplace diversity.
