Job Description:
Come build The Disney of the 21st Century with us!
At Inkitt, we believe every author should have an equal opportunity
to succeed. Our mission is to discover hidden talents and turn them
into globally successful authors. Traditional publishing often
leaves authors behind with human editors responsible for selecting
books fit for publication. Inkitt is a pioneer at the forefront of
data-driven publishing. By inventing an algorithm which analyzes
users' reading behavior to identify hits, we have removed
subjectivity from the traditional publishing equation. This gives
Inkitt the unique ability to discover hidden talents that might
otherwise have gone unnoticed
Are you a builder? We are looking for the change-makers of the
world; the people who build the blueprint anytime they are
unsatisfied with the status quo. Come build The Disney of the 21st
Century with us by developing our books, audiobooks, creation of
games, TV shows and movies!
