Your safety matters to us
To protect yourself from potential scams, remember that Hex recruiters only contact you from @hex.tech email addresses or through official Hex LinkedIn accounts. In some cases, we may partner with vetted recruiting agencies who will identify themselves as working on behalf of Hex.
Be cautious of messages from other sources. Legitimate Hex recruiters will never ask for money, fees, or banking information before your first day. Hex will never extend a job offer without a live interview with a member of our team. If you're ever unsure about a communication, don't click any links. Visit hex.tech/careers directly for confirmed position openings.
