Our mission at Duolingo is to develop the best education in the world and make it universally available. But we’ve got more left to do — and that’s where you come in!

We are passionate about educating our users, making fact-based decisions, and finding innovative solutions to complex problems. We offer meaningful work, limitless learning opportunities, and collaboration with world-class minds. Come brighten your life and over half a billion more!

Craft experiences that excite our learners to work toward their goals every day.

With over 80 million monthly learners, Duolingo is the world’s most popular education app — but how can we make sure they stay committed to learning every day? Enter content design!
