How we work

Four values we hire and fire by.

These aren't slogans — they're the criteria on every performance review, every hiring decision, every disagreement.

Real outcomes only

We optimise for hires that stick, not impressions or vanity metrics. If it doesn't move retention or time-to-hire, we don't ship it.

Transparent by default

Salaries, scoring, OKRs, performance reviews — all open inside the company. Trust is faster than secrecy.

Human in every loop

We use AI heavily, but never as a substitute for human judgement on high-stakes calls — for candidates, customers, or each other.

Calm and durable

We don't celebrate burnout. The work is hard enough — we keep meetings light, deep work sacred, and weekends weekends.

Benefits

What you get for joining.

Cash, equity, time, growth — designed for people building careers, not just clocking hours.

Above-market salary

Benchmarked at the 75th percentile for UK tech, reviewed annually with transparent bands.

Meaningful equity

Every team member gets ESOP — not just executives. Vesting over four years with a one-year cliff.

Remote-friendly

UK-remote or hybrid in our Shoreditch office. Quarterly company offsites covered.

30 days off

25 days holiday + 8 bank holidays. Plus we close between Christmas and New Year — fully paid.

Pension + private healthcare

8% pension contribution and private healthcare for you and your immediate family.

£2,000 learning budget

Yearly budget for books, conferences, courses, coaching — your choice, no approval theatre.

26 weeks parental leave

Full pay for primary caregivers (regardless of gender). 8 weeks full pay for secondary caregivers.

Mental health support

Confidential therapy via Spill, unlimited sessions, no manager visibility.

Equipment of choice

MacBook Pro or Linux ThinkPad, full home-office setup budget, plus a phone if your role needs one.

Open roles

Where you might fit.

We hire deliberately and rarely. If you don't see your role here, the talent network always welcomes applications.

The team

A small team of people who care about the work — and each other.

We're 38 people across engineering, design, sales, ops, and account support. We work in small teams, ship deliberately, and keep the bar high for what reaches our customers.

"I came from a 200-person team where I shipped maybe twice a year. Here, every two weeks something real reaches a customer — and it's stuff our team actually decided to build."

Are you fully remote, hybrid, or in-office?

UK-remote-friendly with a Shoreditch office that's optional but well-used. Most engineering roles are remote-first. Sales and operations roles tend to be hybrid (2 days/week). We're a UK-based company and hire UK residents only at the moment.

What does the interview process look like?

Four steps: 30-min intro call, 60-min role-specific conversation, 90-min work sample (paid for senior roles), and a final values conversation with two team members. Total: ~3 hours of your time over 2 weeks. No whiteboard puzzles.

How do salary bands work?

Every role has a public band. Where you land in it depends on experience, location, and the calibration conversation. We don't negotiate against the band — we set it fairly and stick to it.

What's your stance on AI in the interview process?

We use AI to write our own job descriptions and to schedule. We don't use AI to make hiring decisions or screen out candidates. Every application is reviewed by a human.

What's your hiring bar?

High and honest. We hire roughly one in every 40 candidates we interview. But we move fast — you'll have a decision within two weeks of the first call.

What if my role isn't listed?

Apply anyway via the talent network form (link below). We open roles roughly every 6–8 weeks and reach back to people who've already expressed interest.

Don't see your role?

Join the talent network.

Tell us what you're looking for. We'll reach back when something opens up — usually within six to eight weeks.
