About Us

• Alcion is a distributed, remote-only team and currently spans multiple time zones. We try to work as asynchronously as possible but we do have many ways for the entire team to engage socially including virtual events and quarterly in-person offsites. We care a lot about culture and teamwork and we have documented what this means for you. Check out our company and engineering culture decks at alcion.ai to get a sense of what we value and reward.

Hiring Process

• We start with a 45-minute online meeting. Assuming there’s a mutual fit, we run through an interview loop with 3-4 team members (45-60 minutes each). We will ask you to give a short overview about yourself and your previous work to the entire company so that interviews can concentrate on richer and deeper conversations and not repeat time doing resume reviews.
• Once you are done talking to everyone on your loop, we will reach back out within a week with a decision. The offer process is straightforward and can be completed quickly (within a day or two if needed).
• We are an equal opportunity employer and value diversity at our company. We do not tolerate discrimination in any form on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, national origin, citizenship, marital status, veteran status, disability, or any other classification protected by federal, state, or local law.

Company Benefits

• While we have great (US) health, dental, vision insurance, unlimited PTO, 401(K) plans, hardware, home office, and internet allowances, stock option grants for everyone with early-exercise features, regular company offsites, and more, the best part of the job will involve the following:
• Growth: We want you to only be limited by your skills and ambition. Alcion has the ability to accelerate your career, unlike anything you might have previously experienced. We are committed to your success!
• Ownership and Impact: We give you independence and autonomy to figure out how to best meet your goals. We do not believe in micromanagement but do pay careful attention to results. We are a small company and you have the opportunity to make a big and externally visible impact with your work.
• The Team: We are not only building a great product and company but also an amazing team. We care a lot about finding an amazing group of people for you to work with and giving them a great environment to get their best work done without distractions. There is a reason a number of us have been working together across multiple jobs. If you haven’t looked at them already, check out our culture slides on our website to get a sense of what to expect.
