+# Careers Section (Home Page) — Implementation Plan
+
+## 1. Goals & Scope
+- Attract candidates and showcase company culture directly from the home page
+- Careers lives as a **section on the home page**, not a standalone `/careers` page
+- Section should link out to a full job detail view or an ATS for the actual application step
+- Decide: in-house application handling vs. linking out to an ATS (Greenhouse, Lever, Workable, etc.)
+
+## 2. Content Structure (Home Page Section)
+- **Section heading/hero** — tagline + short pitch on why to work here
+- **Culture/values snippet** — a few photos or highlights, benefits teaser (health, remote work, PTO, equity, etc.)
+- **Open positions preview** — short list (e.g., top 3–5) with title, department, location, type
+- **"View all openings" CTA** — links to full listing (could be a modal, an anchor-expanded list, or an external ATS board)
+- **Application CTA** — "Apply Now" per role, linking to a form, email, or ATS
+- **Optional extras** — employee testimonials, office photos/video, perks grid
+
+## 3. Data Model
+Fields per job posting:
+```
+title
+department
+location
+employment_type
+description
+requirements
+salary_range (optional)
+posted_date
+status (open/closed)
+apply_link
+```
+Store in a CMS (Sanity, Contentful, Strapi) or a simple JSON/database table if no CMS exists.
+
+## 4. Technical Approach
+- **Static list** — hardcode JSON if roles change rarely
+- **CMS-driven** — non-technical team can add/remove postings without code
+- **ATS integration** — pull live listings via API (Greenhouse/Lever both offer public job board APIs) for least maintenance
+- **Application handling** — form → email service (e.g., SendGrid) or direct link to ATS application page
+
+## 5. Pages / Routes
+- `/` (home page) — Careers section embedded, e.g. `#careers` anchor for nav linking
+- `/careers/[job-slug]` — individual job detail page (linked from the home section)
+- `/careers/apply/[job-slug]` — application form (optional)
+- Consider adding "Careers" to the main nav, scrolling/linking to the `#careers` section
+
+## 6. Design Considerations
+- Keep the section concise — it's part of the home page, not the main focus, so limit to a handful of featured/open roles
+- Mobile-responsive job cards, and ensure the section doesn't overload home page load time
+- Clear, prominent "View openings" / "Apply" CTAs
+- SEO: `JobPosting` schema.org structured data on the linked job detail pages so roles surface in Google Jobs search
+- Make sure the section is reachable via nav (e.g., "Careers" nav item scrolls to the section or links to `/#careers`)
+
+## 7. Build Order
+1. Design mockups/wireframe for the home page section (placement, hero, mini job list)
+2. Set up data source (CMS or ATS API) for job postings
+3. Build the home page Careers section + "view all/apply" links
+4. Build job detail page(s) linked from the section
+5. Wire up application flow
+6. Add SEO schema markup on job detail pages
+7. Test on mobile; submit a test application
+8. Launch and monitor applications
+
+## Open Questions
+- What is the site built with (React/Next.js, WordPress, Webflow, plain HTML)?
+- Use an existing ATS (Greenhouse/Lever) or handle applications via email/form?
