What we expect from everyone:
What does it take to be successful with us? We expect ourselves and each other to:
- Put people first (by helping others be at their best-and making sure we are, too)
- Communicate clearly (by speaking candidly, regularly, and respectfully to everyone)
- Own our work and the outcomes (by taking personal ownership to deliver on the commitments we make to our colleagues and our customers)
- Trust and be trustworthy (by acting with integrity and providing excellent work for each other and our clients)
- Value everyone’s voice (because it’s all about the best ideas-not bureaucracy).
What you can expect from us:
- 4 weeks of time off every year. Most of it doesn't roll over because we know we won't use it otherwise - and we know using it makes us better at our work and with each other.
- Flexible working hours and schedules (some positions-like this one-will do some on-call weekend work on occasion, but we expect you to take time off during the week to make up for it)
- Casual dress
- A company-paid Google Pixel phone or a monthly credit to apply for your tech needs (including upgrading your bandwidth)
- 12 paid holidays, including Juneteenth and the day after Thanksgiving
- A monthly wellness stipend that you can use for things like a meditation app, standing desk, gym equipment, etc.
- 401(k) matching up to 4%
- Up to $5,250/year for certification, continuing education, and tuition reimbursement.
- We have insurance coverage we’re proud of for you, your family, and your spouse or domestic partner.

- HSAs, FSAs (health care, dependent care), and commuter benefits may reduce what you have to pay for these parts of your life
The fine print:
You also must be able to travel as needed (roughly 0-10% of your time). Depending upon where you live, potential travel locations include sites in the DFW area, Nashville, our corporate headquarters in Baltimore, or other locations as we continue to grow. In general, this is not a travel-centric role.
The physical requirements include prolonged periods sitting at a desk and working on a computer (though you can use the tech benefit to create whatever desk you’ll work best at).
We are an agile organization, and so the duties and description of this role may change at any time as we adapt.
This position is exempt under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA).
