“At Modern Meadow, we are bringing cutting edge science to tackle some of the most daunting global environmental challenges. It takes a diverse and talented team to address these complex problems.”
- Andras Forgas, Founder, Modern Meadow
Operating at the frontier of biotechnology, we believe that multidisciplinary collaboration between design, biology, and material science can lead to smarter real-world problem solving. We design materials from the molecular level to deliver design and performance with impact.
Our people enjoy Best-in-Class Benefits designed to support the whole person AND their families. We work hard, so we believe in taking care of each other. Medical, Dental, Mental and Vision Insurances are all provided at little to no cost for our people and their families. We also sponsor quarterly Wellness Challenges and provide Wellness Days to ensure we do our part to support the health of our amazing team.
Our team is working hard to contribute to a future that combines sustainability and performance, so we are committed to supporting their future as well. Each of our people is granted stock options at hire with the opportunity to receive more in future. When the Company wins – we all win. We also match dollar for dollar up to 4% of a person’s salary when they save via our 401k plan.
We think our technology and innovation is extremely important and interesting. However, our people are MORE important and just as interesting. We also believe in science – and science has proven that we are healthier, more creative, and more productive when we rest. So, it’s not surprising that our team enjoys a combination of Paid Time Off, Holidays, Wellness Days, and we close the office for a Winter Break between December 24th and the New Year (with only critical work occurring based on business needs during that time). Our new parents have a minimum of 12 weeks of Paid Leave + Short-Term and Long-Term Disability coverage.
Our team lives and commutes from the entire beautiful Tri-State area, so we offer the ability to save money via our FSA plan to use commuting expenses. Additionally, Uber or Lyft is on us when you share a ride from local train stations.
If you really want to know what it is like to work for Modern Meadow, we hope you will apply for a role that matches your experience and your goals and consider joining us. But we don’t mind sharing a few more benefits: we provide lots of snacks and coffee along with lunch every single day. Our culture committee hosts fun events, and we have access to learning and development programs. Most of us wear sneakers, jeans and maybe a lab coat while walking around a nice campus. We hope you join us.
