Events and Experiences Specialist - NYC

The shape of it

In the posting’s own words

While onsites will be your primary focus, you’ll also contribute to other projects across the broader Events and Experiences team, including support for the company All Hands, virtual events, merch production and coordination, and other cultural moments focused on recognition, celebration, and culture-building. You’ll join a group that creates immersive, memorable moments for our people, from team gatherings to large-scale cultural touchpoints, with the same care we put into our products. Because our team is lean, your impact will be huge — you’ll help build culture-defining experiences alongside passionate teammates who care deeply about their work.
