At Brightest Day Labs, the sky's the limit in terms of creativity and technical solutions. We are creating a mobile, real-time fan experience from the ground up. If we can dream it, we can build it. 

We are based in a brand new office at the newly reimagined and historic Bell Works building in beautiful Holmdel, NJ, and we are looking for a small group of experienced, highly skilled and visionary people to bring an innovative fan platform to life. This is an incredibly rare opportunity to be part of building something from the ground up.

Considering that this is a new venture, we will be in the office at least 4 days a week, together. There is great value in being in person, and we chose an exciting and dynamic environment to create our office in - (https://bell.works/new-jersey/explore/).
