Reddit is a community of communities. It’s built on shared interests, passion, and trust, and is home to the most open and authentic conversations on the internet. Every day, Reddit users submit, vote, and comment on the topics they care most about. With 100,000+ active communities and approximately 130 million daily active unique visitors, Reddit is one of the internet’s largest sources of information. For more information, visit www.redditinc.com.

The Content Ecosystem organization fuels Reddit's contribution flywheel by integrating posting, commenting, community building, and professional platforms into interlocking growth loops. We lower the friction required to create content and guide new communities from day zero to a thriving state. Additionally, we consolidate professional presence into a trusted hub for creators while serving as the foundational shield for platform data defense and safety mandates. Ultimately, our goal is to move Reddit beyond consumption-only usage, driving daily active user growth by turning passive lurkers into meaningful contributors.

We need a web client and mobile consumer product domain expert to lead the architectural overhaul of our post and comment composers across all platforms. As a Senior Staff Engineer, you will define the multi-year technical vision for how users create content on Reddit. You will focus on continued modernization of our composers and building out new contribution formats, particularly the future of video creation and editing. By removing client-side friction, integrating intelligent posting/commenting user empowerment, and setting the standard for client performance, you will be the technical cornerstone for accelerating our global user contribution and content ecosystem growth.
