About Patreon
What is Patreon?
Patreon is a San Francisco–based membership platform founded in 2013 by Jack Conte and Sam Yam that lets content creators run paid memberships for their audiences. Over 250,000+ creators across podcasting, video, music, writing, art, gaming and design use Patreon to earn recurring income directly from their fans (patrons). The company powers $3.5B+ in earnings to creators since launch.
Where will I work?
Patreon is headquartered in San Francisco with a hybrid + distributed team — most roles offer significant flex; some Engineering and Design roles are remote-eligible across the US. The company has historically also had offices in Dublin (EMEA), NYC and Berlin.
What is the team like?
Around 1,300 employees across product, engineering, design, creator partnerships, finance, marketing, trust + safety and customer support. Patreon has been recognised by Tech.co (2024 Best Paid Parental Leave list) and Glassdoor as a top employer for parents.
Work-Life Balance — Equal Parental Leave (the headline benefit)
Patreon provides 20 weeks of paid parental leave to ALL parents — uniform across birth, adoption, surrogacy and foster paths, and regardless of whether the employee is a primary or secondary caregiver. Patreon was featured in Tech.co's 2024 "Best Paid Parental Leave in 2024" round-up for this universal-equal approach (still relatively rare in US tech). The company also offers fertility, adoption and surrogacy benefits as part of the family-formation package.
