How we work:
In short, we work flexibly! Altrata employees can choose to work from wherever they want (mostly). For some, that might mean splitting time between working from home and one of our global offices, and for others that could mean working fully remote. We want our team to choose the working dynamic that works best for them. We currently have team members spanning the following countries: United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Hungary, India, and Malaysia.
We also start our weekends early, at lunchtime on Fridays (really!), giving everyone a jump on their weekends.
Studies have shown that women, people of color, members of the queer community, and people with disabilities are less likely to apply to jobs unless they meet every single qualification. At
Altrata, we are dedicated to building a diverse, inclusive, and authentic workplace, so if you’re excited about this role but your past experience doesn’t align perfectly with every qualification in the job description, we encourage you to apply anyways. You may be just the right candidate for this or other roles.
