FAQ

What’s your policy on remote work?

We value the ability to work and collaborate in-person in our early stage as a startup, so Gridmatic has a hybrid policy of "50% in-office”. Most of the company works in our Cupertino office 2 or 3 days a week.

How does the interview process work?

We start with 1-2 initial conversations about the role, your past experience, and Gridmatic as a company. We then have a skills assessment; if that goes well, you’d come onsite to Cupertino to talk to the team.

Gridmatic is an equal opportunity employer and encourages all applicants from every background and life experience.
