how.we.work;
Fully remote since day one. No mandatory office days, no performative meetings. Core hours 10:00–15:00 — be reachable, be communicative, the rest is yours.
What it takes
to work here.
We're less interested in what tools you know and more in how you think, communicate, and work. Skills can be learned. The traits below are harder to teach — and they matter more to us than your tech stack.
the.process;
4 steps. Around 2 weeks total. We read every application ourselves. No automated rejections, no ghosting. If we move forward — you'll hear from us within a week.
Fill it out — and fill it out well. We read every single application personally. The form matters to us. It's our first signal of how you communicate, how you think, and whether you actually care about the role. Generic answers tell us something too.
A conversation about your experience, how you work, and what you're looking for. Expect a few behavioural questions based on real situations from your past work — alignment with our values matters to us.
This is where we go deep on hard skills. Expect real problems, real scenarios, and honest conversation about how you approach technical challenges. Have a stable connection, a working camera, and a quiet environment. We want to focus on the work, not the logistics.
The final conversation is with one of our co-founders. Not a formality — it's a real conversation about ambitions, how you want to grow, and whether we're the right environment for you. Both sides need to feel it's right. We won't make an offer we're not confident about.
