2) Stretching themselves and gaining new skills through helping our founders get off the ground

In this role you will be on the UX/UI design team. The right person for this role will enjoy collaborating with UX, branding specialists, and product managers to define and maintain design consistency, interaction paradigms, site hierarchy, and product roadmaps.

By issuing equity in our company, it aligns the incentives of all team members and HCPs to creating the most value for startups within our Atlanta ecosystem.

The equity schedule will have ownership unites granted monthly and vested annually. If a startup within our ecosystem experiences a liquidity event, HCPs will be notified immediately and will be paid your percentage of the exit at the end of the quarter.
