Build stuff that will get used. Fast.
Whether it's engineering a new site feature, expanding Facebook globally or signing on new business partners, we move fast and don't mess around.
Prime Time Hack
At Facebook, a new idea can lead to a huge impact. In our regular Hackathons, engineers spend the night coding and hacking away at new product ideas. Watch how one of those all-night projects turned into Facebook Video and led to people viewing over a billion videos every month.
Believe in your work
The web is shifting from a vast encyclopedia of information to a social environment that reflects our real identities, and the relationships and information we care about. Facebook is at the forefront of that change. We're leading a social movement by building ground-breaking technology that gives people the power to share and makes the world more open and connected. As we grow quickly in every way, each of our employees has the opportunity to have an enormous impact. We're looking for dynamic people that get excited by big questions and unsolved problems.
