Some of our values

  • Customer First: It's not just about solving issues or closing deals. We're in the business of understanding our customers so well that we can anticipate their needs and blow their minds.

  • Straight Talk: Communication isn't just a checkbox for us—it's our operating system. We say what we mean, mean what we say, and have no hidden agendas or sugar-coating..

  • Question & Disrupt: We do things that have never been done before—not for the sake of being different but for being radically better.

  • Act with Agency: We don't wait for permission or perfect conditions. We evaluate the situation, make our best call, and go for it.

  • Raise the Bar: We're not just meeting standards, we're aiming for setting them.

  • Fast & Fearless: We move quickly but thoughtfully, and view mistakes and failures as stepping stones, not setbacks.

  • Driven by Curiosity, Fueled by Growth: We ask the questions no one else is asking, dive deep, and come out the other side better for it.

  • Synergy Over Solo: We value collaboration over individual achievement. When we work together, we're unstoppable. We're not just co-workers; we're co-creators.

Benefits

🏠 The flexibility to work from anywhere. Even if it's just from the comfort of your own bed (because let's face it, who doesn't love a good WFH situation?)

🌞 Flexible working hours. Because who said you can't design your day on your terms?

💸 Competitive salary and stock options. We offer highly competitive salaries and equity, because we're building this together.

🌴 Unlimited PTO. With unlimited paid time off and a minimum of 15 days off per year, you'll have plenty of time to explore the world (or just your couch).
