About
🌎 Work remotely wherever you want to
🏄 Experience an amazing team offsite every quarter
💪 Build a product that helps thousands of teams & users around the world
🚀 Move fast and learn a lot in the challenging environment of a fast-growing startup.
At GitBook we're developing a modern documentation platform where teams can document everything from products to internal knowledge-bases and APIs. Our ambition is to empower team's intelligence! We want to help teams work more efficiently by creating a single place to leverage their knowledge.
GitBook first started as an open-source project, the product has evolved a lot and is now used by more than 500,000 users and teams such as Google (internal knowledge base), Netflix (design system), or Adobe (product doc).
We've achieved amazing results from which we're very proud of, but we want to go even further : we defined a very ambitious roadmap for the year ahead and we're working on an important next product step to redefine "core team work"! As you may have understand, the bulk of the work hasn't been done yet and we have a lot to do to reach our level of ambition.
GitBook is sustained by some of the best SaaS europeans VCs (Point 9 Capital, Notion Capital, Fly VC), used by over 500,000 users and thousands of companies such as Adobe, Adeo, Coursera, Decathlon, DuckDuckGo or Redux.
Well the best way to learn about GitBook is still to test our product! 😀
Applying process
First, you need to send us your application to express your interest and we will review it (of course we'll get back to you whatever the decision)🙂
As the next step, our Talent Acquisition Manager will call you so the both of you will be able to ensure there is a correlation between GitBook's expectations, the role and your own expectations.
Then, you will be meeting with two members of our team to share about role specifics such as required skills, knowledge, abilities as well as working environment, day-to-day life... We might also suggest you to carry out a workshop so you'll have a concrete vision of GitBook's daily life in the specific role.
Afterwards, you will have the opportunity to discuss with one of GitBook's founders about vision and ambitions, and ensure there is a fit with our culture and core values.
Finally, you will have the opportunity to meet with the entire team to determine if we would like to work together on a daily basis and share drink/lunches after work.
