About The New York Times

The New York Times is dedicated to helping people understand the world through on-the-ground, expert, and deeply reported independent journalism. This mission is rooted in our belief that great journalism has the power to make each reader’s life richer and more fulfilling, and all of society stronger and more just.

Times journalism is in amazing form, and audiences have been flocking to our authoritative coverage. Our journalists report from the ground in more than 150 countries, often at great personal risk. Our talented business-side colleagues help serve their reporting to more than seven million subscribers across multiple platforms.

As we work to reach our goal of 10 million subscribers by 2025, we also need to transform into a world-class technology and product company. To continue supporting our strategy of creating journalism that stands apart, along with innovative products and services to bring the news to the world, we must recruit the finest journalists and hire many of the field’s most creative, distinguished technologists.

The Delivery Engineering team is an essential part of The New York Times' engineering organization.

Diversity, Equity & Inclusion

The New York Times is guided by a simple but powerful mission: to seek the truth and help people understand the world.

A diverse, inclusive workplace is essential to that mission. Our journalists reported on the ground in more than 160 countries last year. Our journalism reaches 150 million readers each month. To ensure we tell and share stories with respect, empathy, and accuracy, we are committed to fostering a diverse staff that reflects the society we report on and the global community we serve. And we’re committed to giving our people a workplace that feels inclusive and rewarding to all.

Moreover, our journalism and the products we build in the service of that journalism greatly benefit from a range of perspectives, which can only come from diversity of all types, across our ranks, at all levels of the organization. We envision a culture that welcomes and supports colleagues while they are here, that nurtures their talents and inspires their creativity and ambition, and that builds a sense of teamwork and togetherness.

The Times has stared down challenges throughout its history by acknowledging our shortcomings and recognizing the imperative to address them. In the last decade alone, we have transformed both our journalism and our business. Now, it is time to transform our culture.

We strongly encourage women, veterans, people with disabilities, people of color, and gender nonconforming candidates to apply.

Actionable steps we’ve taken this year

The New York Times has clear expectations for leaders who manage people and for how they will be assessed. In the past year we’ve increased the feedback, training, and support we provide managers.

This year we’ve deepened our partnership with our employee resource groups, and established an employee advisory group that works with leaders to make The Times more diverse, equitable and inclusive.
