Pay

If provided, base salary or wage rate ranges are the range in which Align reasonably expects to set a candidate’s pay for the posted position. Actual placement depends on the individual skills and experience level of a candidate plus the total compensation and equity across team members. For other locations outside of the primary location, the base salary range will be adjusted geographically. For Field Sales roles, the salary listed is the base pay only and does not include applicable incentive compensation plans. A cost-of-living adjustment may be added to base pay for higher-cost areas in the U.S.

Internship hourly rates are a standard pay determined based on the position, location, year in school, degree, and experience.
