Additionally, you'll assist in recruiting and hiring additional teammates to our rapidly-growing team.

As a valued member of our team, you can expect a compensation package that includes equity, robust benefits, flexible PTO, 401(K) retirement, and free on-site catered meals. Base salary is between $160,000—$215,000 USD, influenced by factors such as experience, credentials, educational attainment, skill level requirements, and position level.
