iFixit USA
Repair is for everyone. Are you in?
As part of iFixit, you have the opportunity to work on innovative projects and promote cultural awareness around repair. With colleagues from all over the globe, we work to make the world a little bit better. At iFixit, it’s more than just a job—it’s about being part of a movement that creates positive and sustainable change.
Our global headquarters in San Luis Obispo, California has provided tools, parts, and repair guides to fixers across the internet since 2003, and we are committed to the Right to Repair movement. The work starts here—but repair wouldn’t be global without the collaborative support of our European team in Stuttgart, Germany.
And now, we have a brand-new distribution center in Chattanooga, Tennessee.
The people who keep iFixit running
Community
iFixit stands on the foundation of our free, community-contributed repair guides. Our Community Managers make sure fixers have everything they need, while our EDU team teaches students across the country the tenets of technical writing. Translators make sure all information is available globally.
Engineering & AI
As the world’s largest online repair community, we are solving hard problems every day! Our Software Engineering, QA, and AI teams are building the future of repair. We use React, Next.js, Llama, and a whole lot of other cutting-edge tooling to craft an intuitive, usable repair experience.
Editorial
Right to Repair—it’s why we do everything we do. Our Editorial and Video team is responsible for our well-known teardowns and other tech news, and our hardworking Advocacy team is at the forefront of campaigning for repair legislation.
Internal Services
Our Accounting team is the financial ninjutsu in the company, keeping a sharp eye on all financial matters. But because money alone doesn’t make people happy, People and Culture create a vibrant work culture where employees can reach their full potential.
Marketing & Design
Together we can fix any thing. This message needs to go out into the world! Our Marketing and Design team ensures that we communicate our vision on all relevant channels to reach as many fixers as possible (and keep current fixers happy).
Operations
Our Operations team is responsible for getting parts and tools to customers, from Sourcing and Product Development to E-Commerce and Shipping. When an order reaches the customer, our Support team ensures smooth communication in case of any questions or issues.
Solutions
Repair should always be the fastest, easiest, and cheapest solution. Therefore, our Solutions department creates professional repair guides for our platform. Additionally, the team advises manufacturers on repair and how they can make their devices more repair-friendly.
