🔥 ultimate.ai is a remote-first company 🔥
It means that we are neither remote-friendly (“just tolerates remote working and not actively support it”) nor fully-remote (no official physical office): Remote-first means that we organize ourselves in a way that makes remote work natural and normal, by building remote work into the very DNA of our business.
We do this because we value trust. We want to work with great people who are motivated and empowered to do their best work. We fundamentally believe that this means offering people flexibility and autonomy so they are able to work on their terms, as much as they can.
When you start at ultimate.ai , before your onboarding, you will be asked to choose your own adventure (remote-first or office-first). Please use this page as the source of information to make that decision! For any question, we are happy to help.
What does this mean for you as a candidate? 🤓
The majority of our positions can be done remotely. Only in certain particular cases (e.g. Office Manager or IT Support), the position has to be on-site, this will be noted in our job ads.
Contract-wise: There are a few options how we could employ you:
Via an employment contract with our German (GmbH) or Finnish (Oy) entity: If you have residency and working permit in German or Finland, you will be able to work for us as an employee.
Via an Employee of Record (EOR), our partner is Remote.com (currently only for our US candidates)
Via a B2B contract with our Finnish entity: If you have residency in countries where we don’t have an entity or we do not use an EOR, we could hire you as a business contractor. This means for you: you have to register your own business as a contractor or business owner; clarify your own tax and cover your own health insurance. We try our best to make our benefits available to our remote employees as well!
If you are a candidate without residency in Germany or Finland (where our entities are), this means we could employ you if:
You are willing to
relocate
