  • Contributions to open source projects.

What We Value

In addition to our core values, which are not unique to this position and are necessary for Mapboxers:

  • We value high-performing creative individuals who dig into problems and opportunities.
  • We believe in individuals being their whole selves at work. We commit to this through supportive health care, parental leave, flexibility for the things that come up in life, and innovating on how we think about supporting our people.
