• At Alan, we don’t believe in “titles” to define levels. We have levels that make it clear your impact and what we expect from you. 
• Your level will be defined during the hiring process through diverse technical exercises and shared in the event of a hiring offer (read more about this here). The level defines:

  • the equity: number of options at hiring  
  • the reference base salary which is increased for each year of past professional experience.
• Your salary depends both on how many years of professional experience you have and the level at which we make an offer. 

• We want Alaners to act like shareholders within a culture of collective achievement: you receive a package of options at hiring and you have the opportunity to receive new equity every year, which makes the package even more competitive over time.
