It depends on location. Roles in the US and Canada are posted as remote, while European roles are hybrid and tied to a specific office: engineering out of Warsaw, Poland, and sales out of Munich, Germany. Aurora also offers a coworking stipend for remote and hybrid team members who want an in-office setting.
US postings use zone-tiered base pay ranges rather than a single national number. For example, a Staff Analytics Engineer role listed Tier 1 (San Francisco and New York) at $163,500 to $216,700, Tier 2 (cities such as Seattle, LA, DC, Boston, and San Diego) at $149,800 to $198,600, and Tier 3 (all other US locations, including Colorado) at $136,200 to $180,600. New-hire pay is typically set at the start of the range.
Medical, dental, and vision premiums are 100% covered for employees and 90% for dependents. Aurora offers flexible PTO and 16 weeks of parental leave at 100% base salary with a gradual return to work. Stipends include $500 for a home office ($750 for engineering), $300 a month for coworking, up to $100 a month for connectivity, and $720 a year for learning and development after 90 days. Wellness support includes monthly classes plus Wellhub and Modern Health.
Aurora has teams in the US, Canada, Poland, and Germany, with more locations planned. Roles are tied to a specific country rather than open to work-from-anywhere, so each posting lists where you need to be based.
People who want to build software for the solar industry and are comfortable in a remote-first setup that still keeps offices and some hybrid roles. Aurora leans toward candidates who put customer outcomes and team progress ahead of individual credit, and who can work with autonomy across a company spread over four countries.
