The primary location for this role is Summit, NJ. We believe our business and our culture are strongest when we work together in person. We also know that it’s helpful to have flexibility to work remotely. Currently we are operating under a hybrid model whereby all teams work in the office a minimum of two days per week (Tuesdays/Thursdays) and may be provided flexibility to work from home on other days.

There may be times when you’re asked to work in our NYC office because it’s in the best interest of our business or your team.

The annual base salary range for this role is $130,000 to $190,000 (new hires are typically brought into the organization between the minimum to midpoint of the salary range posted depending on qualifications, internal equity, and the budgeted amount for the role). It is important to note that our salary ranges are based on paying competitively for our size, industry, and the market and are one part of the total rewards that we provide.

Individual pay rate decisions are based on several factors, including qualifications for the role, experience level, skillset, scope of the role, and internal peer benchmarking. In addition to your base compensation, you may be eligible to be part of the Company’s annual bonus program with a non-binding Company and individual performance-based target bonus.

This role is not eligible for relocation assistance. Additionally, the Company will not commence an immigration case or "sponsor" an individual for this position (for example, H-1B or other employment-based immigration).

The above is a comprehensive, but not exhaustive, description of requirements and expectations that may evolve over time based on business needs. You must be able to complete all physical requirements of the job with or without a reasonable accommodation.
