About The Company
More than a decade ago, with the launch of Firefox 1.0, Mozilla paved the way for the first generation of rich internet applications.
Since then Mozilla, a corporation fully owned by a non-profit, has continued to advance a healthy internet.
A healthier internet begins with the tools we use to build, access, and discover the web.
Today, a few tech companies play a disproportionate role in crafting the internet used by 4.5 billion people.
Now it’s your turn to ensure the citizens of the modern web play a defining role in shaping its future!
Mozillians love what we do, but more meaningfully, we are building something that millions of people love, too.
