As we strive to build a community of curious explorers, we also offer generous relocation packages for those interested in moving to another Rokt office. We have bustling offices in great cities including New York, Sydney, London, Singapore, and Tokyo.
• We believe we’re better together. We love spending time together and are in the office most days (most teams are in the office 3-4 days per week).
