At Red Hat, our commitment to open source extends beyond technology into virtually everything we do. We collaborate and share ideas, create inclusive communities, and welcome diverse perspectives from all Red Hatters, no matter their role. It’s what makes us who we are.
What we do
Some of the most knowledgeable and passionate people in the technology industry work here. Whether we’re building software, championing our products, or training new associates, we’re collaborating openly to make a difference in the world of open source and beyond.
What we offer
To ensure the success of every Red Hatter, we offer flexible scheduling, career growth and development opportunities, remote options, health and well-being initiatives, meaningful rewards, and associate recognition programs. These opportunities give Red Hatters the work-life balance necessary to make them happier—and more productive.
Our values
Freedom, courage, commitment, accountability. All lived in balance.
Red Hatters hold each other accountable for living our four values in balance. As a company, we are like a ship that rights itself when we lean too heavily in the direction of any one of these four values. Our values help us sustain our culture amidst growth and change. It isn't always easy for people who naturally gravitate toward freedom or courage to work with those who lean more toward accountability or commitment. With diversity of thought comes tension and conflict, and our values help us find a path forward.
An open, inclusive culture
At Red Hat, we believe that good ideas can come from anyone, anywhere, regardless of job title or hierarchy. Diversity fuels our inclusive culture by bringing in many perspectives and ideas, challenging our assumptions, and inspiring innovation. Diverse perspectives welcome. Learn more.
Engaged. Inspired. Invovled.
At Red Hat, we know we can do more as a community than as individuals. Red Hatters join diversity, equity, and inclusion communities—also known as affinity groups or employee resource groups—to celebrate our differences and shared experiences.
"[These] communities provide a safe space for open dialogue within and across diverse groups. The open source model shows that incorporating diverse experiences and knowledge leads to better outcomes. Red Hat’s communities make this possible." Allie Jacobs, Senior Interaction Designer
