We are interested in every qualified candidate who is eligible to work in the United States. However, we are not able to sponsor visas at this time.

At Scene, the health and safety of our team are our number one priority. That’s why all offers of employment in the U.S. for roles that require or include in-person activities and where legally permitted are contingent on the candidate showing proof of being fully vaccinated (or agreeing to be fully vaccinated by the date of hire) against Covid 19 (according to the CDC) to pass the pre-employment requirements. Individuals with medical issues or religious beliefs or practices that prevent them from getting the vaccine may request a reasonable accommodation.

We carefully hire the best talent we can find, which means actively seeking diversity of beliefs, backgrounds, education, and ways of thinking. We believe in reflecting the diversity of our customers and their patients in our team. We strive to build an inclusive culture where differences are celebrated and leveraged to inform better design and business decisions. Scene is proud to be an equal-opportunity workplace.
