What we pay

Fair, competitive, and transparent pay is very important for us. Therefore we work with a standardized salary calculator that includes several factors such as seniority level as well as location.

For this Lead role, we're looking at a range of €84,600 - €94,000 for someone located in a similar cost of market as Germany. If you live in a lower or higher cost of market range, that also moves the pay range.

Apply

If this sounds interesting, please apply! Studies by several different sources have shown that on average men will apply for a job if they meet 60% of the application requirements. Women/non-binary people will seek to match a much higher percentage of requirements before applying. If you're not sure you're the right fit, apply anyway and let us know what you bring to the table. We'd love to hear from you!

If you need any specific accommodations (tools, time, etc) because of a disability, chronic illness or neuroersity, we want to provide those. If you're comfortable disclosing this, please let us know in your cover letter.

We're all about being transparent and setting clear expectations. That's why we've put together our hiring playbook. There you'll find a sneak peek of who we are and what you can expect in our hiring process.
