  • Work-Life Balance and Flexibility: Flexible working hours and options for digital nomads, occasional office visitors, or regular office-goers

  • Employee Stock Options: Opportunity to join our Virtual Share Option Program (VSOP) and share in the success of an already profitable company

  • Mental Health Support: Free personal coaching through our partner nilo.health to support our team members to live fulfilled lives at home and at work

  • Training & Development: A competitive personal development budget of up to 2000€/year for training, conferences, workshops, etc., and free language courses with Chatterbug

  • Germany-Based Benefits: 25 vacation days, free Gympass gold subscription, free monthly Deutschland-Ticket, and a monthly €50 tax-free internet contribution

  • State-of-the-Art Equipment: Doesn’t matter if you are a MacBook or Windows user; we will provide you with the technical gear you need to succeed

  • A Relocation Package: Includes visa support for those who need it
