We are committed to fostering, cultivating and preserving a culture of diversity, equity and inclusion. We actively work to drive out even unintentional discrimination in our hiring processes via practices like blindly graded work samples, structured interviews, and diversity awareness training.\n\nDue to the sensitive nature of what Spreedly does- handling payment data- candidates must complete a successful background check. If you have concerns along those lines, please discuss with us sooner rather than later- we do not want you to waste time in the hiring process and get disqualified at the end if we can help it.\n\nWe appreciate your interest in our company. Because of the high volume of resume flow, we will only respond to those candidates that we think will be a potential fit. \n\nPlease mention the words **MORE ESSENCE IMMENSE** when applying to show you read the job post completely (#RMjE2LjczLjIxNi4xMDc=).
