We're growing our team! As a bootstrapped, profitable company, we're always thoughtful about our growth. We only open a few positions a year, and we're always focused on long-term growth—not the quick wins. We believe in a person's potential more than experience and degrees.
We’re hiring for two open roles: a Relationship Manager, and a Community Manager.
Community is everything, which is why these roles are so important to our team.
Check out these open positions, and if you think this is the role for you, hit apply (form at the bottom of each description). We'd love to meet you. The applications are open until March 17th.
