<p class="description">Build the HR function from the ground up at a high-growth tech company.</p>
|
||
|
||
## Details of the role
|
||
|
||
- **Location**: Remote (strong requirement for UTC-6 to UTC+4).
|
||
- **Type of work**: Full-time (contractor or employee [depending on circumstances](https://mui-org.notion.site/Hiring-FAQ-64763b756ae44c37b47b081f98915501#494af1f358794028beb4b7697b5d3102)).
|
||
- We're a **remote** company, we prefer asynchronous communication over meetings.
|
||
|
||
## The company
|
||
|
||
MUI's story began in 2014 with Material UI, the most successful React implementation of Google's Material Design.
|
||
Today, Material UI stands as one of the most popular open-source libraries on GitHub and has paved the way for the fully-fledged startup known as MUI (founded in 2019), which now boasts an ever-expanding ecosystem of React UI products.
|
||
We're a company of 40 people as of 2025, and we're growing steadily.
|
||
|
||
## The products
|
||
|
||
MUI is best known for our flagship product, Material UI—but this is just one of three core component libraries we maintain.
|
||
Base UI is our headless component library, and Joy UI is a sister library to Material UI that implements our own in-house Joy Design system.
|
||
We also host Design Kits and pre-built Templates.
|
||
|
||
Beyond the core libraries, MUI X offers advanced components like the Data Grid, Date and Time Pickers, and Charts, for more complex user interactions and data visualization needs.
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
## The culture
|
||
|
||
MUI is a fully remote company with a team that spans the globe.
|
||
The majority of our work is asynchronous, and we rely on written communication to collaborate.
|
||
We're radically transparent: nearly all of our work happens in public.
|
||
Each contributor has the freedom to decide how and when they work, and that work is primarily self-directed: it's your responsibility to define and complete your own tasks in a timely manner.
|
||
|
||
For additional details about the culture, you can check our [careers](https://mui.com/careers/) and [about](https://mui.com/about/) pages and also our [public Handbook](https://mui-org.notion.site/Handbook-f086d47e10794d5e839aef9dc67f324b).
|
||
|
||
## Why we're hiring

We need somebody to lead our HR strategy including hiring, onboarding, diversity & inclusion, learning & development, and employee happiness.
