DuckDuckGo | Multiple Roles | Remote | Full-time | $178,500 - $320,000 USD + equity We are looking for candidates that are excited to join us on a mission to raise the standard of trust online. All of our roles are fully-remote, except where specific locations are noted. Most of the software engineering positions have been repeating here for years because we've been continually hiring for them, scaling our whole team…

I would advise people to steer clear for applying to DuckDuckGo.

They require two take home projects and poor communication/no feedback on projects submitted. Their glassdoor is adorned with similar feedback.

They've also been hiring for years, Cannonical and DuckDuckGo need to be banned from jobs' forums.
