How We Work

- Work on a high-quality product - the solution we offer has a long-term, stable product vision and a rapidly growing customer base.

- Team with healthy processes - You’ll have a lot fewer meetings, a lot less meaningless communication, and a lot less interruption. Turns out 8 hours is plenty of time to get work done.

- We truly prioritize the right work-life balance - find the rhythm that works for you. If you have to pick your kids up from school or go to a doctor’s office in the middle of traditional working hours, we’re always fine with it.

- We work in small, independent teams - You’ll have a chance to learn about the application architecture and influence the directions in which the application will evolve.

- Friendly & honest atmosphere - we’re looking for people that want to work with us for years, not months.
