CoreWeave | $75,000-$110,000
Steph's Notes:
CoreWeave's About Us page is pretty informative about values and benefits with a good recruiting video, so I'm confused as to why they're not calling it their Careers page, which would make it easier for job seekers to find. And if the video is correct and they have almost 500 employees, I would expect to see a more mature candidate experience overall.
I'm also pretty unimpressed that they obfuscate the location of this role. The Our Workplace section feels deliberately wishy-washy, and in the application, they say:
This is a hybrid role that can be based at our offices [...] Are you willing to come into the office at least 3 days a week?
1) That's not a hybrid role, that's an onsite role with 1-2 days of telework authorized, for fuck's sake, I am so tired, and 2) why hide this in the application if not to capture candidates who would otherwise skip the listing based on location? Stuff like this drives me nuts. Do better, CoreWeave. Be transparent. This is unnecessary.
Drive projects that improve support-related processes and our customers’ technical support experience
Assist with the training and development of new hires
Plan, organize, and manage tasks, resources, and timelines across teams to accomplish work accurately and on time
This is (at least) manager-level work. This is not appropriate for a frontline title or a pay range of $75,000-$110,000. Neither, by the way, are this role's technical requirements, which really are for a cloud engineer, nor are the shift requirements, which include the wee hours of the morning and weekends.
I am deeply unimpressed with CoreWeave's showing here. Tread Carefully.
