About DuckDuckGo
DuckDuckGo is a privacy-centered technology company established in 2008 by Gabriel Weinberg and based in Paoli, Pennsylvania. It specializes in products that help people control their personal data, including a search engine that avoids tracking users, as well as browser extensions and its own privacy-focused browser for Mac, Windows, iOS, and Android. From the start, DuckDuckGo's mission has been to simplify online privacy by offering tools that block trackers, bypass data collection, and protect search histories. Over the years, DuckDuckGo has gained recognition as a prominent alternative to mainstream search engines, earning notable awards and appearing on lists such as Time's “50 Best Websites of 2011.” Its focus on transparency and privacy has been central to its growth. DuckDuckGo has also built a distributed team of over 335 employees across 15 countries. The company operates as a fully remote employer with flexible schedules and a strong commitment to fair pay, equity, and diversity. It looks for candidates who appreciate its privacy mission and can work independently. DuckDuckGo provides benefits like paid time off, company meetups, and a collaborative, inclusive culture. Throughout its history, DuckDuckGo has maintained its emphasis on privacy, innovation, and an adaptable work environment for its global team.
