Remote and flexible

We encourage Hubbers to build amazing things with a high level of autonomy and self-direction. Work/life balance is important to us, which is why we offer flexible work schedules and unlimited PTO. We believe that if a job allows for it, people should work wherever they’re happiest.

GitHub Office

Our office

Our office in SOMA is designed for everyone to work better and happier, and includes unique spaces like a DJ booth and game room. Some of our local GitHub activities include karaoke nights, an annual charitable dodgeball tournament, and various athletic groups.

Family

You + your family

All full time employees enjoy 100% coverage of health insurance premiums across our Medical, Dental and Vision plan offerings, including coverage for dependents. We also offer five months of paid family leave to all new parents with the flexibility of using it all at once, or throughout the baby’s first year.

Everyone at GitHub receives an Amazon gift card to buy the books they need. We’ll also send you to one work-related conference per year of your choice, anywhere in the world. If you’re invited to speak at a conference, we’ll cover you to get there.
