  • Experience working with outsourced teams

  • Willingness and ability to attend our annual 3-day company offsite in the spring

We offer ample opportunities and encourage employees to attend team offsites, events, and hackathons a couple of times a year! We expect all employees to be willing to attend our annual 3-day company offsite in the spring.
