// What we offer
The deal. Competitive base + meaningful equity. Salary bands published internally. Equity that vests over four years with a one-year cliff.
Healthcare and retirement that don't make you read the fine print. Comprehensive medical, dental, vision. 401(k) match (US) and equivalent country plans elsewhere.
4 weeks vacation. Sabbatical at year five. We're a 10-year company on a 30-year problem.
Hybrid, with intent. Tuesday + Thursday in-office at your hub. Heads-down days are protected. Async-by-default for documents, sync for decisions.
Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
