About Us
Pomelo places the best offshore talent with top brands, startups, and agencies across the globe. We enable hard-working and ambitious talent to work remotely from their home countries, while gaining exposure into how the world’s top companies operate.
About the Role
We are a fast-growing offshore staffing agency helping U.S.-based companies (startups, brands, and agencies) scale their teams with top-tier global talent.

This role is not for the faint of heart - if you're looking for a comfortable role where you'll clock in and out from 9-5, this is not for you.
