Culture & values

The engineering team operates with high autonomy and minimal oversight.

The team is collaborative but lean and works across multiple time zones (Washington DC, New York, and San Francisco).

Engineers interface directly with customer feedback to ship features that matter.

Occasionally join customer meetings to align on execution.

Hiring bar is high and specific: engineers must be able to describe what they personally built, not just what their team or company accomplished.

Engineers are expected to bring enterprise-level thinking to a startup-sized team.
