Nice to have • Experience in software or adjacent regulated environments. • Facilitation skills for workshops, standups, or community office hours. Compensation & logistics • Base salary range $86,000–$112,000 USD, depending on experience and location. • This role is based in Chicago, IL, with up to two remote days after onboarding. • Benefits include transit subsidy up to $120/month; annual equipment refresh for remote staff; flexible PTO with a 3-week minimum encourage.
