About GitHub

GitHub, founded in 2008 by developers Chris Wanstrath, PJ Hyett, and Tom Preston-Werner, has grown into one of the world’s most influential platforms for code collaboration and version control. Since its inception, it has supported a global community of over 24 million users and hosted tens of millions of software projects across industries. The company is powered by a diverse, remote-first team made up of engineers, designers, and operations professionals, often described as “code hackers,” “pixel stylists,” and “office pioneers”, who collaborate from across the globe. GitHub champions flexibility in the workplace and has consistently hired for remote, hybrid, freelance, part-time, and flexible-schedule roles in areas like IT, software development, and operations. This distributed model allows GitHub to tap into a broad talent pool, promote cultural diversity, eliminate long commutes, and foster autonomy and deep focus. The company provides developers with tools for code review, project management, documentation, and community building through GitHub.com, mobile platforms, and GitHub Enterprise. Leading companies like PayPal, Airbnb, SAP, Slack, and Twitch rely on GitHub to create scalable, high-quality digital products. GitHub is committed to empowering developers and teams to build better software, together.
