Work at Wahoo
POSIZIONI APERTE
At Wahoo, our employees call themselves Wahooligans. To be a Wahooligan means to be driven by the purpose of building a better athlete. It means to be inspired by the vision of being THE global leader in smart fitness and training. It means operating by a core set of values that include challenging the status quo, supporting each other, doing the right thing, taking ownership of your work and having fun.
Wahooligans have been completely transforming the way endurance athletes train since we launched the first smart trainer for cyclists in 2013, the KICKR. Since then, whether it be our indoor bike trainers, our GPS bike computers, our sensors, our pedals, our software and now, our treadmills, we have never stopped innovating and we don't plan to any time soon. As a company that is constantly innovating, we need to hire great people and often ask them to do things that push them out of their comfort zone. After all, as Wahooligans, we find comfort in discomfort. If you are up for that kind of challenge, we invite you to keep reading.
For a company like Wahoo, it may seem obvious but we want to be super clear about our commitment to being an equal opportunity employer that welcomes everyone. It is our desire to build and maintain a workforce that is as diverse as the athletes we serve! We are looking for creative, self-starters, who think differently. We want to be sure we have the best people, in the right jobs, doing great work in an engaging, fun, welcoming and challenging environment!
If you are excited about being a Wahooligan, we encourage you to apply for our job opportunities.
