We push ourselves to do better every day. With tens of thousands of customers and rapidly increasing revenue, we're on to something big.

We especially encourage members of underrepresented groups in the tech community to apply.

Our interview process is unique to each role, and we value the candidate experience just as much as our customer experience. We hope your conversations with us reflect a thoughtful process that is illuminative, enjoyable, and respectful of your time.

About the role:

Render is looking for our first Workplace Experience Manager. As a distributed team, about half of Renders work regularly from our San Francisco SOMA office, and half work from home.

This includes managing all aspects of our San Francisco office, helping remote Renders get set up in their home office, organizing onsite get-togethers at least twice yearly, and leading the charge on Render's social events (both in-person and virtual).

Initially reporting to our People Operations Manager, we're looking for someone who has the experience to independently own our office and event programs, and is also excited to roll up their sleeves every day to make Render a great place to work (our team is super happy to lend a hand, but yes, unloading the dishwasher and stocking the bathrooms is a part of the job).

Render is striving to build an environment where great people, from all backgrounds, want to join and stay to grow their career over the long-term, and this role can make a huge impact. If you're passionate about creating a stellar employee experience, we'd love to hear from you!

  • Building out a comfortable, functional, and inviting lactation room

  • Spearheading activities and initiatives to encourage Renders to make the most of their time together
• Plan and promote social events, both in-person and virtual, on a monthly cadence to keep us all close as a team. Let your creativity run wild!
