Special Considerations

All of Axelerant’s roles are considered work from anywhere. However, some jobs are regionally specific. For example, for US sales roles, we will not consider people living in Costa Rica. And, we typically expect people to have a two-hour crossover with the 11 AM to 7 PM India (UTC+05:30) timezone each workday for meetings and coaching. Usually, our salaries are India-based, though some regional overrides exist.
