Health & Well-being

  • Company paid medical healthcare (dental vision & mental).

  • Paid Leave — 20 days of holiday for every team member per year (26 days after two years).

  • No dress-code — we like to keep it casual.

  • 401K with employer matching.

  • Gym Membership Reimbursement.

Perks & Professional Growth

  • Flexible working hours.

  • Trainings, lectures and courses — internal workshops, knowledge-sharing initiatives, online tutorials, and e-learning classes are all available. There’s always something to learn!
