At Duolingo, you’ll join a team that cares about finding innovative solutions to complex technical problems, running countless experiments (300+ at a time!) with our massive user base to make data-driven decisions, and educating our users and employees alike. You’ll have limitless learning opportunities, mentorship and collaboration with world-class minds, and a variety of projects with large scopes — while doing work that’s both fun and meaningful.
Join our life-changing mission to develop education for our half a billion (and growing!) learners around the world.
About the role...
Duolingo's Monetization pillar builds the systems that fund our mission — from subscription packaging and advertising to ML-powered personalization, performance marketing, and beyond. As a Senior Engineering Manager, you'll lead a cross-functional product engineering team working on high-impact, revenue-generating systems that help Duolingo grow sustainably while keeping the product playful, transparent, and learner-first. Your team will build and scale systems across ads and paid growth — building signal and audience pipelines, powering creative experimentation, improving ad quality, optimizing budget allocation, and strengthening attribution and ROI guardrails. You'll partner closely with product, design, data science, machine learning, and marketing to define strategy and deliver results. Just as importantly, you'll create an environment where engineers do the best work of their careers — coaching, developing talent, and fostering a high-performing team culture.
🧠 You will...
- Co-lead a cross-functional pod with Product and Marketing to define strategy, success metrics, and an execution roadmap for Duolingo’s performance marketing engine, aligned to ROI guardrails and retained-user growth goals.
- Build and evolve the engineering systems that power paid growth at scale: creative experiment frameworks, audience/signal ingestion and privacy-safe list management, budget and bid optimization tooling, and reliable attribution and reporting pipelines.
- Collaborate with data science and ML partners to design experiments, apply personalization/targeting, and translate insights into product improvements and bookings growth.
- Own planning and execution for projects that directly impact revenue; identify the right team‑level metrics to optimize and protect delivery through clear milestones and risk management.
- Bring both technical and product perspectives to new ideas, enabling rapid hypothesis testing without sacrificing reliability, observability, or long‑term maintainability.
- Set and uphold engineering quality standards and practices that improve reliability, scalability, and operability across Ads systems.
✅ You have...
- Experience leading, managing, and building a team of software engineers.
- A track record of owning multi‑engineer, multi‑week technical projects to successful outcomes in a highly experimental, data‑driven environment.
- Strong product instincts and excellent written/verbal communication, with experience aligning diverse stakeholders across engineering, product, design, and analytics.
- Experience working closely with data, experimentation, or machine learning teams to inform prioritization and ship measurable impact (direct ML expertise not required).
- Demonstrated ability to raise the bar on engineering practices for reliability, scalability, and observability.
⭐ Exceptional candidates will have...
- Prior experience with advertising platforms, ad tech integrations, or building ad surfaces in mobile apps.
- Experience improving ad quality and monetization through experimentation, targeting, or programmatic levers, in partnership with business teams.
- Familiarity with COPPA‑compliant or kid‑friendly ad solutions and the trade‑offs of untargeted inventory.
- Background collaborating with sales/biz ops on direct or programmatic campaigns and translating market feedback into product improvements.
- Experience leading teams that span multiple platforms (iOS, Android, backend) and partnering on ML‑powered personalization within consumer apps.

About the role...
We’re looking for a Director, Communications to lead how Duolingo shows up at our most important moments—when we launch products, share results, and explain how we’re growing. This role is responsible for turning what we’re building and how it’s performing into clear, compelling stories.
You’ll own the narratives around our biggest product bets and ensure they show up consistently across launches, earnings, and executive communications. You’ll work closely with Product, Data, and Finance to translate progress into proof—connecting what we ship to real outcomes for learners and the business.
This is a role for someone who thinks like an operator, not just a storyteller: you understand how product decisions drive growth, and how to turn that into narratives that build trust, drive adoption, and stand up to scrutiny.
🧠 You will...
- Own how we communicate product progress and company performance—connecting what we ship to how we grow (DAUs, engagement, revenue).
- Lead comms for earnings and major company moments: shape the narrative, partner with IR and Finance, and ensure consistency across press, exec messaging, and owned channels.
- Drive product communications end-to-end: from shaping the story to landing the launch to sustaining momentum after.
- Turn complex product areas (AI, efficacy, monetization) into simple, credible narratives with clear proof points.
- Partner deeply with Product and Data to identify what’s actually interesting, differentiated, and worth talking about—and what’s not.
- Build repeatable systems for how we show up across launches and earnings (messaging frameworks, proof points, story arcs).
- Prepare executives to speak clearly and consistently about product and business performance in high-stakes moments.
- Anticipate and manage issues tied to product changes, AI, efficacy, and monetization—balancing transparency with clarity.
- Define what “good” looks like and measure it—focusing on message pull-through, narrative clarity, and impact on trust and growth.
- Manage agencies and partners to execute at a high bar.
✅ You have...
- 10+ years in communications, with strong experience in product comms and/or corporate/financial comms at a high-growth tech company.
- A track record of turning product work into clear, differentiated stories that get picked up—and understood.
- Experience supporting earnings or working closely with Finance/IR to shape external narratives.
- Strong instincts for what matters: you can quickly identify the signal in a roadmap, dataset, or result—and build a story around it.
- Excellent writing and editing skills; you can make complex ideas simple without losing credibility.
- Experience preparing executives for high-stakes moments (earnings, launches, major interviews).
- Comfort working cross-functionally with Product, Data, Marketing, and Finance.
- Ability to operate in a fast-moving environment and build structure where it doesn’t exist.
- Experience managing agencies and holding a high-quality bar.
⭐ Exceptional candidates will have...
- Experience in a product-led, experimentation-heavy company.
- Strong intuition for product storytelling, especially around AI or technical systems.
- Direct experience leading or owning earnings communications.
- Experience connecting product metrics to business narratives in a credible way.
- Background in education, edtech, or consumer subscription products.
- Strong relationships with business, tech, and financial media.

About the role...
We’re looking for a Senior Accountant, Indirect Taxes to own day-to-day indirect tax operations and strengthen compliance across sales/use tax in the U.S. and VAT/GST in international markets. You’ll partner closely with our external partners on filings and registrations, resolve notices and audits, and build scalable processes that keep us accurate and on time. In addition, you’ll lead operational touchpoints that improve tax data quality - especially vendor onboarding/1099 readiness - and take ownership of fixed assets accounting to ensure clean books and strong controls. This role sits within Accounting (not a role manager) and collaborates frequently with AP, FP&A, and Internal Audit. The team is co-sourcing all corporate income tax/provision work with an external co-source provider; your focus is indirect taxes and adjacent accounting operations.
🧠 You will...
- Lead U.S. sales and use tax compliance end-to-end: nexus monitoring, data prep, return review/approval flows with partners, payment scheduling, and notice resolution.
- Coordinate international VAT/GST compliance with external partners, supporting registrations, return reviews, and audits; ensure timely, accurate filings and documentation.
- Own tax data readiness across procure-to-pay: strengthen vendor onboarding to capture complete tax documentation and IDs, and establish year-round 1099 preparedness to avoid year-end crunch.
- Serve as the primary operational liaison to our indirect tax partners (indirect tax advisor and co-sourced tax provider), facilitating calendars, data requests, and status tracking.
- Own fixed assets accounting: maintain the subledger, validate capitalization vs. expense judgments, perform monthly close activities, and prepare reconciliations with clear support.
- Build and document scalable processes and SOX-ready controls for indirect tax and fixed assets; maintain tight, current procedures and evidence.
- Partner cross-functionally (AP, FP&A, Internal Audit) to resolve issues quickly, align on timelines, and drive a single source of truth for tax-impacted data.
- Track and report compliance status, upcoming deadlines, and risk items; proactively flag issues and propose practical remediations.
✅ You have...
- 3–5 years of experience in indirect tax operations and/or public company accounting, with hands-on exposure to U.S. sales/use tax and international VAT/GST workflows.
- Experience partnering with external tax advisors on registrations, return preparation/review, audits, and notices; adept at organizing inputs and driving to on-time filings.
- Exposure to AP/procure-to-pay workflows and an interest in improving vendor onboarding and year-end information reporting (e.g., 1099) over time.
- Exposure to fixed assets accounting (or a strong willingness to learn) - including subledger administration, capitalization vs. expense decisions, monthly close tasks, and reconciliations.
- Excellent documentation and organization; ability to stand up repeatable processes and maintain audit-ready evidence.
- Clear, concise communication and stakeholder management across Accounting, partners, and cross-functional teams.
- Ability to work on-site in Pittsburgh, PA (or New York, NY, as applicable to company policy for accounting roles).
⭐ Exceptional candidates will have...
- Experience coordinating multi-country VAT/GST compliance with global partners and fiscal reps.
- Prior work implementing or improving sales/use tax engines and related P2P data flows.
- Experience designing and operating SOX controls for tax and fixed assets processes.
- Background in consumer tech or subscription businesses with digital services and cross-border VAT.
- CPA or equivalent certification with indirect tax emphasis.

About the role...
We're looking for a Lead Recruiter to own product hiring at Duolingo — partnering directly with our Chief Product Officer to build and shape the Product org from the ground up. This isn't just executing on a req list. You'll help define what great looks like, influence how we think about product talent, and build the processes and relationships that make hiring a competitive advantage. If you love blending strategy with hands-on execution, operating at the intersection of recruiting and business, and leaving your fingerprints on a world-class team, this is the role for you.
🧠 You will...
- Own full-cycle recruiting for Product roles at all levels — ICs to senior leaders — building deep pipelines and consistently closing top talent.
- Be a true partner to the CPO, shaping hiring strategy, prioritizing roles, and helping define what great Product talent looks like at Duolingo.
- Lead and influence without direct authority, working across recruiting, sourcing, and business stakeholders to align processes, calibrate expectations, and drive outcomes.
- Drive sourcing strategy (roughly 25–30% of your time), going beyond inbound to build proactive outreach for senior and hard-to-fill roles.
- Use data to tell the story — diagnosing pipeline health, surfacing insights to leadership, and making decisions that balance speed with quality.
- Champion the candidate experience from first touch to offer close, making sure every interaction reflects Duolingo's brand and values.
- Build the infrastructure — whether that's interview frameworks, leveling guidance, or hiring playbooks — that scales beyond you.
✅ You have...
- Ability to work onsite in New York, NY, Monday–Thursday, with Friday optional
- 7+ years of full-cycle recruiting experience, with meaningful depth in Product hiring
- Experience partnering closely with senior leaders (VP/C-suite) to shape org strategy, not just fill seats
- A track record of hiring across levels — from PMs to Directors to VPs — with strong judgment on what "great" looks like at each
- Comfort operating in ambiguity, with the ownership mindset to create structure where it doesn't exist
- Strong data fluency — you know how to use pipeline metrics to drive conversations and influence decisions
⭐ Exceptional candidates will have...
- Experience leading or mentoring a recruiting team, even informally
- Deep market knowledge of the Product talent landscape, including how to position Duolingo competitively
- A history of building repeatable hiring systems that improve quality and efficiency at scale
- And, of course… an impressive Duolingo streak.
We post a multi-level salary range for all of our roles.
This is not inclusive of the rest of our awesome portfolio that includes equity compensation and world-class benefits. Our salary ranges are the same for all US locations. Your recruiter can share more details about the range for a specific level during the hiring process. The actual salary within the range is determined by many factors including but not limited to, skills, experience, education, and internal equity.

- Expertise in rigorous applied research. You can define a research agenda, design and evaluate studies using methods such as randomized controlled trials, quasi-experimental designs, and large-scale observational analyses, and deliver findings that drive consequential decisions.
- Industry judgment and pragmatism. You know how to apply high scientific standards in a product environment. You understand the tradeoffs between ideal and feasible research designs and can deliver credible, decision-useful insights on business and product timelines. Meaningful industry experience is required.
Deep understanding of learning. You have deep expertise in how people learn and can connect measured outcomes to the mechanisms that drive them, making you a trusted partner to product and learning teams. - Exceptional communication and influence. You communicate clearly and persuasively across audiences, from researchers and executives to external stakeholders, and can translate complex findings into actionable recommendations and compelling public narratives.
