Job Designation

Resident - Our Resident category recognizes that certain staff need to be physically present at Base Camp to do their work.

Some Resident staff must be at Base Camp every day to do their jobs, while others may only need to be physically present onsite some of the time to meet looming deadlines or to get work done and may require a unique schedule.

As such, this category has been revised to provide maximum flexibility depending on what's required for each individual role.

The days Resident staff come into the office will be determined by their teams and workflow, and they should work with their supervisors to determine their specific schedule.

And throughout the year, their schedule may be adjusted based on cyclical work cycles, deadlines, and/or ebbs and flows of work.

Candidates must be legally authorized to work in the United States. This position is not eligible for visa sponsorship.
We encourage you to apply even if your experience is not a 100% match with the position. We are looking for someone with relevant skills and experience, not a checklist that exactly matches the job description. We want to help you grow and in return, you help us grow into a stronger, more inclusive organization.
