Unlimited PTO (mandatory 10 days per year minimum)
Strong opportunity for growth at profitable, bootstrapped startup
You can live anywhere in North America, so long as you’re excited about coming to NYC to visit headquarters regularly. This job is remote-friendly, but if you *do* happen to live in NYC, you can work out of our Manhattan office with the rest of the Smooth Media team.
We are ridiculously confident in the future of both energy innovation and the team we’re assembling to cover it. If you’re excited at the prospect of joining an ambitious, curious, and excited team—apply below.
