What’s it like to work for Brushfire?
We’ve been 100% remote for the better part of two decades, and our team is a diverse group of caring, driven people from all backgrounds and technological comfort levels that strive to provide the best for our customers while also being the best they can be for their team. We place a high value on open, candid communication through group chats, video calls, and phone calls throughout each day to keep things moving forward. When possible, we encourage interested team members to collaborate in-person and we have in-person meetings for the entire company at least once a year.

Compensation/Benefits/Perks
Compensation for this role starts at $62,000 per year (commensurate with experience).

We believe working remotely is merely the baseline necessary for a healthy work-life balance. We also provide comprehensive benefits including company-sponsored (and matched) retirement plans, full health insurance coverage (medical, dental, vision, and life), unlimited PTO, flexible hours, and much more.

Although we are a completely remote company, candidates closer to our teams in Dallas-Fort Worth, Texas are preferred.

We take great care to evaluate all employees and job applicants equally, based on merit, competence, and qualifications. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, disability status, or any other characteristic protected by law.
