Most of us work Monday to Friday, 7ish to 4ish UTC together in Slack. Working hours are flexible but we expect you to overlap for at least 4 hours between 9am and 4pm UTC. We aim for asynchronicity, but still need some "synchronicity" to work well.

We’ve been a fully distributed organization since our founding, and we’re pretty proud of the supportive remote culture we’ve created. We use Slack as our office, Jira for transparency and organizing work, and video calls for real-time collaboration (and just to hang out face to face).

Our company values are:

• Be fearless. Be entrepreneurial.

• Simplify things.

• Own your decisions. Your successes. Your mistakes.

• Enjoy diversity and inclusion.

• Work as a team. Trust each other.
