Operations Lead - Innovation

About OddBytes, LLC

Did we mention we’re fully remote?  We found that life is just better with a fully remote workforce and we operate in a remote work environment.  We’re most productive when our work life acts in harmony with the rest of our lifestyle, and our culture reflects that.  US candidates only will be considered.


** Perk for candidates: We have an amazing office in Huntington Beach, CA a block from the beach, shops, and restaurants. It's a cool place for employees to have meetings or important conversations and to keep up with coworkers more regularly. If you are in the SoCal area, it's a great option if you are looking for more of a hybrid schedule to make and keep human connections! And if you are not in the SoCal area, our office doors are always open, and we encourage you to take advantage of the office space for in-person training and periodic visits!
