Work & culture

Official materials emphasize musicians and technologists working together, humility, kindness, collaboration, aesthetic quality, speed, ownership, intensity, and fun. Current engineering postings describe a fast-paced, office-based environment with a small team, high responsibility, and substantial product impact.

Visa sponsorship

Limited

Compensation

Public postings advertise competitive equity and benefits. One current/near-current Growth Engineer listing showed approximately $175,000–$250,000 base salary plus equity; individual compensation varies by role, location, skills, and experience. At least one engineering posting required US work eligibility and did not promise sponsorship; a third-party listing indicated possible visa transfers but no routine new petitions.
