Our team is made up of a diverse group of highly motivated, mission-driven individuals. As a remote-first company, most of our teammates work from the space that suits them best, wherever they may live. To collaborate in person, we have beautiful headquarters in sunny El Segundo, California.

With more than 700 employees around the globe, we are committed to building a culture of inclusivity, resiliency, and courage. GoGuardian’s growth is fast-paced and ever-evolving, and our teams are growing along with it — always ready to experiment, learn, and adapt.

We’re here for the cause, but also for the culture. We celebrate our successes and wins together, and make time to appreciate our teammates every day. Take a peek into your future at GoGuardian: our Slack channels include #gardenclub, #boardgametime, #bookrecs, and #petphotos. There’s always something fun going on, including concerts, classes, book clubs, and more! From virtual trivia to local meet-ups, Guardians are always finding ways to connect.

DIVERSITY, EQUITY, AND INCLUSION

We’re committed to all of our employees feeling valued

At GoGuardian, we are working intentionally to create a diverse, equitable, and inclusive environment. We support our intentions with real-world practices including initiatives such as:

  • Communities of Practice: Regular sessions in which any employee can give direct input and leadership can garner insights and feedback from the team.
  • Employee Resource Groups: Voluntary, employee-led groups designed to bring employees with common interests or identities together to share, connect, and grow in our understanding of ourselves and each other.
  • Lifelong Learning: Trainings and empowering learning experiences that equip all team members with tools to create inclusive environments.

Diversity, equity, and inclusion begin with our hiring practices and processes. We are committed to ensuring that our organization is made up of diverse individuals who are provided opportunities to grow and thrive on their chosen career path.
