Benefits
• At Zipline, we're committed to paying our team fairly, transparently, and in a way that supports growth. This role is targeting an annual salary within Canada of $122,688 CAD to $149,952 CAD. • The broad salary ranges reflect the growth someone will experience in the role—from developing skills to reaching expertise within their career level. We've found that hiring team members with the expectation of being accomplished in the role sets them up for success, which for this position on the Canadian band is $122,688 CAD. Salaries below this point typically reflect someone with potential but still building the necessary skills, while salaries above are for individuals already excelling in the role, with a deep understanding of Zipline's impact on customers, product, and company. • At Zipline, you'll continue to have career development conversations with your manager to ensure your compensation grows as you advance. • Our salary ranges are determined by market, factoring in our revenue and employee size and paying competitively. In higher cost of living markets, we apply 5-10% multipliers on our ranges, depending on the location, to maintain competitive compensation and reflective of the increased expenses our team members face in those areas. While we primarily hire in Canada and the USA, we are a global employer, and all hiring regions will use the same methodology to determine fair and transparent pay. • Transparency is key to building trust in our compensation process. To better understand how this range is determined, we encourage you to ask as many questions as you'd like about compensation during the interview process to ensure clarity and confidence. • Remote-first culture: Join a high performing, fully remote team and work where you're comfortable • Stock Options: Get meaningful ownership in a fast-growing, venture-backed company shaping the future of retail. • Time off: We believe rest fuels great work. Our flexible time-off policy gives you the freedom to take the breaks you need, when you need them—whether it's a long weekend or a well-deserved vacation. We'll also give you a monthly coffee-shop stipend to switch up your workspace and get inspired outside the office. And when you've been with us for five years? You'll earn a fully paid one-month sabbatical to truly unplug and reflect—we call it a thank-you for your impact and dedication. • Benefits: World-class medical, dental, and vision policies. • Team Connection: Annual company off-sites in fun locations. We've done New York, Costa Rica, Whistler, Palm Springs, San Diego, and Mexico City. • Volunteering: Every quarter, Zipliners get a paid day off to volunteer for a nonprofit of their choice. • Learning: We support continuous learning and provide unlimited access to our Udemy Business account
