It’s the 14th birthday for XMind, and it’s another year for us to explore in mind mapping. XMind has been shaping in a way that beyond our imagination and expectation. We’re grateful to work, study, and witness how our users in the globe have grown in both figures and experience.

That’s why we are looking for a group of people who is self-driven, innovative and independent, most importantly, with the faith of building and creating what the users exactly want. Let’s have a look behind the curtain (or you can scroll down for the open occupations if you've known us well).

Small but united. Young and innovative.

We are a small team with nearly 40 people, and some of them work remotely. The office is not extravagant but decent with Christmas tree and spring couplets. Though small, the way we cooperate and collaborate is agile and flexible. We are proud of our products, and show them with mind maps hanging on the wall created by product manager, designers, etc.

Happy work, happy staff.

If what you need from staff is creativity, not brute force, you need to let your staff go home, watch a movie, go on dates, browse a book store, travel, rest, raise kids. Staff at XMind have their personal hobbies, such as drawing and music. We also encourage them to find more possibilities after work, or spend time on their personal project.

There are different teams in XMind, but we are closely connected both at work and after work. We celebrate birthdays together at monthly afternoon mini party, sending wishes to those birthday boys/girls. Each year, we will vote for a place and have fun with team mates. We all have different hobbies, from photography to sports, from music to games, and you can always find a group of people to talk, to share, and play. Oh, and we love pets too, from golden retriever to British shorthair, you can even find fish in our office.

No boundary for mind mapping, also for the talents.

We believe efficiency will not be delayed by distance, instead, it will be enhanced through effective communication and collaboration. Besides working in headquarter, we also have remote colleagues from 5 cities and 3 continents.
