Come build something that matterspeople rely onyou're proud of
A small team of talented people taking on the giants of network security. Open source, built in Europe, used by thousands worldwide.
Secure private networking is a fundamental right of every modern company
Network security is complex and expensive, often built for companies with multi-million dollar IT budgets, while millions of smaller teams are left behind. NetBird's mission is to make advanced networking and cybersecurity easy to use and affordable for teams of all sizes. By combining open source with modern technology, NetBird aims to set the standard for connecting and securing IT infrastructure.
Building something like NetBird is hard, which is exactly why it's fun. The people who thrive here love open source and networking, own problems end to end, and would rather build a new standard than keep an old one running. If you've ever figured you could do networking better, you'll fit right in.
Our values
How we work together matters as much as what we ship, especially when the world runs on what we build. These are the principles we work by.
Build in the open
Open source isn't a feature, it's how we work. Our code is public and people run what we ship every day. That openness keeps us honest.
Own the outcome
Small team, real scope. You own problems end to end and see your work in production fast, not buried in process.
Default to candor
Direct, kind, and specific. Best argument wins, not the loudest voice, and feedback stays about the work, never the person.
Stay close to the user
Engineers talk to users and everyone does support sometimes. The product is everyone's job, not a department.
It just has to work
We build for the teams actually using NetBird, make it genuinely good first, and earn the right to scale instead of over-engineering.
Security is the promise
Networks around the world trust us to protect them, and we earn that trust every day. Reliability is the baseline, not a feature.
Life at NetBird
We value doing things together: the hard problems and the wins, but also the dinners, the offsites, and everything in between.
What the team says
“I was running NetBird in my own homelab before I ever worked here, so joining wasn't a leap. I've built my whole career around open source, and NetBird is one of the few companies where that's the foundation, not a checkbox. It makes marketing simple too. When the product is this good, my job is mostly just showing people what it can do.”
“I joined NetBird because I wanted to work on something that actually matters. Something built the right way: secure, simple, open source, made in Europe, and giving people real control over their own networks. The mission clicked with me immediately, and after meeting the team, it felt like the right place to do my best work. The chance to help grow a fast-moving project from the inside made the decision easy.”
“The best part of this job is the people: a genuinely talented team that loves solving hard technical problems. Getting to work alongside them and help build the company around them is exactly what I came here for.”
“Beyond the day-to-day work, I get to bring in the ideas I find exciting and actually build them into the product. They don't sit in a backlog; they ship and get used by real people. NetBird is one of the few places where I can combine the two things I care about most, networking and deep coding, and that combination is genuinely rare.”
“Having worked with Misha and Maycon in the past, joining them was an easy decision: great people, an amazing vision, and a product I believed in from day one. What makes building NetBird special is seeing your own ideas shape the product and become something our customers rely on every day.”
“What drew me to NetBird was the chance to make a difference. Making the complex world of zero trust feel simple and intuitive is challenging and fun, and there's always more to learn. I love getting the small UI details right, because that's what the user actually feels. Best of all, the whole team cares about those details as much as I do.”
