Shifted suggestion to subscribe from foundation-l to announce-l, following a process change that as the WMF Foundation posts new jobs, we'll post them to announce-l
This used to be a page with _only_ the job openings, so sane to redirect here.

Wikimedia is a global community of editors, readers, and developers, all working together to make the sum of human knowledge available to the world, for free. In only ten years, Wikimedia has become the most important collaboration of knowledge sharing in human history.

The Wikimedia Foundation, the non-profit that supports the [[our projects|Wikimedia projects]], is helping transform the way the world learns. We are looking for creative and motivated people who want to work in a highly-collaborative environment, people who are mission-driven and committed to making knowledge free. With a relatively small employee base, there is a huge impact per hire, and with a vast and unique community, each employee has the opportunity to interact with the passionate thought leaders helping to shape the movement.

We are committed to building talented and highly motivated teams, with individuals who work well in a fast-paced environment. If you'd like to be part of a growing and successful non-profit organization that’s making a difference everywhere around the world, this may be the place for you. If you believe in making education and knowledge free, and you love what you do and want to bring your skills and experience to our organization, check out the current openings below. If you don't see a good fit now, send us an e-mail anyway, include your work experience, and explain your interest in the Wikimedia Foundation. If you'd like to keep up to date as new positions are posted, you can subscribe to our [[mail:announce-l|announce-l]] mailing list, follow our micro-blogging feed (on [//twitter.com/wikimediaatwork Twitter] or on [http://identi.ca/wikimediaatwork Identi.ca]), or add this page to an RSS reader of your choice using its [{{fullurl:Template:Job box|action=history&feed=rss}} page history feed].

<i>If you are an editor on any of the Wikimedia projects, or you help Wikimedia in some other way, please explicitly say that in your cover letter, and please include your username. Wikimedia experience is a definite plus when you're applying for a job with us.</i>
