  • Value good design and UX (an eye for it)
  • Thrive with owning end-to-end product development 
  • Able to easily communicate complex ideas simply 
  • Extremely Proactive (about everything)

What we Care about 

  • Customer Obsession: Our goal is to make every customer love what we build, whatever it takes.
  • Beautiful Design: Software should be beautiful, it’s in the details
  • Accountability: Taking things end-to-end, owning up to when we make mistakes, and fully trusting each other along the way 
  • HighBar: We demand a high bar for ourselves, we expect you to have one too. Once you achieve something, take it up a notch 
  • Open-Minded: We love to debate the details. Disagree with us - We’re not always right. Every decision we make we should have full confidence in

Fun Facts:

  • Our team has experience from companies like Apple, Convoy, Netflix, and more
  • We’re backed by amazing investors like Village Global, Y Combinator, the founder of Guitar Hero (cool right?), and executives from Intuit, Anyscale
  • We have a Señor Sisig addiction (it’s a once a week must on the lunch rotation)
