Remote-First
We are building a world-class, remote-first culture and we believe super-talented people can contribute from anywhere. Our team members are currently located in Seattle, Ann Arbor, Denver, Oakland, Boston, NYC, and DC. Everyone works on their own time zone, and we align team meetings on a common time that works for all. There are no water cooler conversations for a selected few, everyone has a voice.
HQ in Seattle
Our HQ is in Seattle and we have an office in the hip Capitol Hill neighborhood, with views of the Space Needle and just a few blocks from Amazon.
In-Person Time
We find remote work is best when we pair it with in-person time, so we bring the team together at least once per quarter, sometimes in Seattle, but more often we plan to go somewhere off-site and spend a few days together. Travel and meetings will be pre-arranged.
