Benefits

  • Remote-first culture: Join a high-performing, fully remote team and work where you're comfortable
  • Stock Options: Get meaningful ownership in a fast-growing, venture-backed company shaping the future of retail
  • Time off: We believe rest fuels great work. Our flexible time-off policy gives you the freedom to take the breaks you need, when you need them—whether it's a long weekend or a well-deserved vacation. We'll also give you a monthly coffee-shop stipend to switch up your workspace and get inspired outside the office. And when you've been with us for five years? You'll earn a fully paid one-month sabbatical to truly unplug and reflect—we call it a thank-you for your impact and dedication
  • Benefits: World-class medical, dental, and vision policies
  • Team Connection: Annual company off-sites in fun locations. We've done New York, Costa Rica, Whistler, Palm Springs, San Diego, and Mexico City
  • Volunteering: Every quarter, Zipliners get a paid day off to volunteer for a nonprofit of their choice
  • Learning: We support continuous learning and provide unlimited access to our Udemy Business account
  • Great humans, great work: Work with kind, collaborative teammates who care about doing meaningful work and making a real impact. We value diversity of all kinds and are committed to building a diverse and inclusive workplace where we learn from each other. We are an equal opportunity employer and welcome people of all different backgrounds, experiences, abilities, and perspectives
