So what are we looking for in new team members? At Scribd, Inc., we hire for “GRIT.” Traditionally defined as the intersection of passion and perseverance toward long-term goals, GRIT reflects the mindset we expect from every employee.
For us, it also serves as a practical framework for how we work: setting and achieving Goals, delivering Results within your role, contributing Innovative ideas and solutions, and strengthening the broader Team through collaboration and attitude.
This posting reflects an approved, open position within the organization.
About the Team & Role
The Content Foundations team builds the systems that power how content enters, evolves, and is delivered across Scribd. This includes everything from ingestion, metadata extraction, early quality controls, and the core artifacts that power search, recommendations, AI/ML systems, and the reading and listening experience.
Why this role is interesting: You'll be joining a small and growing team working at the boundary between messy, real-world content and highly structured systems, where file formats vary, metadata can be inconsistent, and scale amplifies every edge case.
Scribd operates a hybrid catalog of premium publisher content and user-generated uploads, spanning diverse formats, decade-old systems, and modern services evolving alongside them. Decisions made at ingestion ripple across every downstream system.
What You’ll Do
Nice-to-Have
If you enjoy working on complex, high-scale systems where solving foundational problems unlocks value across an entire ecosystem, we'd love to hear from you.
