Come work with us!
There are a lot of benefits when you Join Team Nerd Fitness:
Work with talented people.
We aren’t perfect, but people on Team Nerd Fitness have superpowers that are well-honed in different areas. If you like working with passionate, talented people, that’s us.
Work remotely, set your own schedule.
We have 20+ team members who live across many different states (and Canada)! Because of this, we don’t have required “working hours” or only offer a limited number of accrued vacation days. Instead, everyone gets their work done on their own schedule.
We encourage people to close their laptops, take vacations, and prioritize time to travel, relax, and be with their families. We work hard to be accountable to each other, but we don’t care where you work from or what hours you work! We help each other out, too. Have family in another state or another country, and you want to spend extended time there? Great!
We care about our team, our customers, and our community.
We’re doing our best to change the world for the better! We’re helping hundreds of thousands of people from all over the world. If that’s appealing to you – and you care – you’ll fit right in.
Most positions start as a 1099 contractor on a per-project basis.
This setup is the most simple and clean to start. We’re a team and business growing FAST, and we’re up for constantly evaluating where talented people can fill roles and provide value to our community.
