We want you to love the work that you do, the team that you’re working with, the environment that you’re working in. It is often hard to tell from a job description what working at a company is like, but some reasons why Relay may not be a good fit for you:

Our mission of helping restaurants and the last mile delivery space does not resonate with you
You desire a consistent 9-5 job.
You prefer highly structured, well-defined environments
You’re uncomfortable with ambiguity or “being the first” in figuring something out
