Careers

You're brilliant. We're hiring.

Chapter Three was founded in 2006 by Josh Koenig, Matt Cheney and Zack Rosen: three friends with a shared interest in social change, mutual expertise in open-source technology and grassroots organizing, and a strong belief in the wealth of networks. Since then we’ve built a successful web strategy and development consultancy around Drupal, the world’s leading open-source content management system.

Building websites for some of the nation's leading companies, non profit organizations, and academic institutions, all of us are active contributors and participants in the Drupal community and believe strongly in the open source process. We take our work seriously, but mix in the proper amount of style, humor, and innovation to keep it all interesting.

We have a down-to-earth, irreverent, fun-loving company culture (currently heavy on bicycling, vegetarian-/veganism, fantastic haircuts and visceral ephemera). Everyone brings something to the table. We’re looking for free-thinkers who want to build their skills and grow with our Internet A-team.

All positions are typically contract-to-hire, with full benefits for full-time employees and competitive pay. The compensation is awesome and comes with full health care, dental, and vision benefits. Our office is elegantly designed and stocked with plenty of food and drink. Work collaboratively with some very smart and competent people. The job requires some travel to company retreats and Drupal community events. Attention is paid to your work/life balance and most requests around whatever are accommodated. Discounts on customized fixed gear bicycles from our bicycle store are also available.
