Why Join Our Mission?

At Yubico, we are guided by a shared belief that your work matters.

  • Inspire Higher: We think big, champion the open internet, and strive to do the right thing even when it is difficult.
  • One Team: We are open, responsive, and collaborative, overcoming challenges and celebrating our successes together.

Aligned with our commitment to open standards, we foster a thriving builder ecosystem through the Yubico Developer Program, offering free open-source repositories, libraries, and SDKs to help developers rapidly integrate strong hardware authentication into any application. Through close collaborations with technical partners like Google, Microsoft, and Amazon, as well as newer frontiers like OpenAI, we continue to shape a safer digital world while donating security keys to protect vulnerable communities, journalists, and humanitarian groups worldwide through our Secure it Forward program.

  • Create clear platform guidance that helps engineering teams deploy and operate their services.
  • Maintain and improve CI/CD workflows with GitHub Actions.
  • Participate in the team’s on-call rotation.
  • Maintain a small footprint of specialized, hardware-backed infrastructure.
