criteria — will receive full consideration. We especially encourage
applications from individuals from underrepresented groups in science,
technology, and environmental organizations.

We are committed to providing competitive compensation and comprehensive
benefits to our employees. We offer fixed salary levels based on experience
and role to minimize biases in compensation and to ensure team members are
paid the same for doing the same work. Employees are eligible for promotion
or salary increases every six months at the time of their performance
review.

We expect this position to be a regular, full-time position, with an annual
salary of $125,000 USD. However, we are open to some variance in
experience, which may affect the resulting level and annual salary. In
addition to salary, we offer a comprehensive set of benefits to all

We are not currently able to sponsor a visa for this position, and

Francisco, but currently work remotely. The hiring manager for this role is
in Seattle. Remote work from any location on Pacific or Mountain Time works
for us!
