Careers · Engineering culture

Owners, not consultants.

Every system we build, we operate. Every product we ship, we own. The platform stays mature because the team that designed it answers the pages it produces.

How we ship

Trunk-based, fast feedback, postmortem culture.

Continuous deployment to staging on green. Production behind feature flags with operator sign-off. Postmortems before retros. Rolling release windows aligned to operator change-control. Senior IC track is real — staff and principal engineers can stay technical for as long as they want.

Principles we live by

What you'll see on day one.

  • Right tool for the job

    Sovereign cloud where it matters. Public cloud where it doesn't. No religious wars about the stack.

  • Audit by default

    Every change to production is reviewed, logged, reversible. Audit isn't a quarterly project — it's a build artifact.

  • Senior-led teams

    Median engineer is L5+. We grow by impact per engineer, not headcount leverage.

  • Diversity is a posture

    We hire for craft and judgment. Background, gender, geography, and language are inputs to perspective.

  • Documentation is product

    Every block, every API, every runbook documented. New engineers ship to production in their first week.

  • Learning budget

    $5K/year per engineer for conferences, courses, books. We expect you to use it.

  • See what we're hiring for.
