Culturally, think of us as an intense, meritocratic, and exciting high-growth startup that has survived and thrived through its first decade and a half of rapid evolution and is now thinking about how to scale up and conquer the next decade’s worth of challenges and opportunities. We’ve sold more than a billion dollars worth of products to consumers over the last 15+ years, but fundamentally we know we’re just at the beginning of our journey, and that’s where you come in! We need the smartest, highest-energy people with integrity who are looking to join an ambitious and hard-working team.

If you join Force Factor, you will work hard, learn a tremendous amount, and be surrounded by incredible teammates.

Force Factor is based in Boston’s innovative Seaport District, in historic Fort Point. Our team is filled with passionate, dedicated, and inspiring people operating with an ownership mindset (which is easy because we are entirely privately held by our team and plan to stay that way over the long-term). If you love a challenge, enjoy acting with urgency, and prefer to opt into a high-performance culture, when you join us you’ll feel like you’ve finally come home. Our private ownership structure is designed for the long-term to enable huge opportunities for growth, learning, leadership, and wealth creation, and we hope you’ll choose to help us build an enduring and successful business for decades to come.
