The Fine Print

At Shrapnel we prefer working in-office, together. We believe working in the same space can accelerate progress, improve collaboration,
and is definitely more fun. But in-office work doesn't make sense for everyone at this time, and technology makes certain remote work
possible. So for certain roles we are open to discussing remote work. Please apply and we’ll decide case by case.
