What we offer:
We know that if we take care of our team everything else will fall into place. We aren't perfect, but we will try to set very clear expectations, always let you know where you stand, and do everything in our power to help you get where you want to go.
Our culture and values matter to us. A lot. We're definitely not serious but we take this stuff seriously, if you get what we mean. We want a place that is an ego-free zone. A place where good people do good things together. It shouldn't be rocket science in workplaces, but for some reason it still is? We're absolutely determined to be different, and we think we're doing a pretty good job at it. We have a CEO who will encourage you to tell him when he is wrong. In fact, he needs people to - we all do. Supportive challenge is good, it's how we get better. We like getting better. We also love diversity, of all kinds. We need people who look, sound, speak, love, and exist differently from one another. This isn't at the end of this paragraph because it's an afterthought. It's SO important to us we want it to stand out.
Right. On to the technical stuff that we know matters to you. We offer competitive pay and benefits that are commensurate with the market and relevant experience.
If any of this sounds interesting, then maybe we are a fit. Life is too short to work with people you don't like. So, whatever you do, don't make that mistake.
