The Company

Mozilla Corporation is the non-profit-backed technology company behind pioneering brands like Firefox, the privacy-minded web browser, and Pocket, a service for keeping up with the best articles online. More than 225 million people around the world use its products each month.

Along with 60,000+ volunteer contributors and collaborators all over the world, Mozilla Corporation’s staff are driven by our mission to ensure the Internet is a global public resource, open and accessible to all.

The Opportunity

At Mozilla, one of our four commitments is to build …an internet that includes all the people of the earth – where a person’s demographic characteristics do not determine their online access, opportunities, or quality of experience.
