Underdogs Welcome

“I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein’s brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.” — Stephen Jay Gould

We hire from unconventional backgrounds.

Opportunity isn’t equal

• Where you’re born shapes your chances—but it shouldn’t define them
• Talent is everywhere. Opportunity isn’t
• We believe the internet has changed how we work and live together. Our team—spread across 10 cities worldwide—couldn’t have existed just five years ago
• Fast connections (5G and beyond) mean geography no longer decides your future. We’ll find you—wherever you are

We seek the overlooked

• Lonely geniuses, relentless tinkerers, people with potential others missed
• We don’t care where you went to school—or if you went at all
• We bet on people like startups: high risk, high potential
• Skills can be taught; drive cannot. We’ll teach you to communicate and collaborate
• We trust you’ll prove yourself through your work and integrity

Meaningful work, close to home

• We create jobs that matter, in the places people call home
• If Menlo’s greatest achievement is enabling people to build meaningful careers in their hometowns—that would be success worth celebrating

This is your shot

• Underdogs, dreamers, the overlooked—this place is for you
• We don’t just welcome you. We’re looking for you
• Wherever you are in the world—apply here
