So…

Just to clarify. This is a full-time position that requires onsite work with our team. Only looking for current Colorado residents. (At all. Really. No, you’re probably not the exception unfortunately… we usually have to trash 20+ apps at a time when hiring. We’re sure you’re really great, but we can’t do this process long-distance. Sorry!) But if you think you match up with us, and are interested, do the equivalent of swiping right.
