  • Impact: Significant scope and company-wide impact
  • Competitive compensation: generous salary & equity packages

  • Time off: Flexible PTO policy
  • Financial planning: 401k with a 4% company-sponsored match
  • Meals in the office: breakfast, lunch, dinner - you name it, we'll cover it
  • Transit: Ubers covered to & from the office
