What we look for
- Exceptional ability: We only hire people who are among the top 1% at what they do — and we hold each other to that same standard.
- Service mindset: Great work exists at the intersection of talent and purpose. We seek people who want to use their abilities and privileges in service of something greater than themselves.
- Striving: We intentionally seek hard challenges to become the best version of ourselves.
- Curious: We seek an uncommonly deep understanding of the world around us.
- Supportive: Great work is never done alone. We put the mission first and help our teammates generously.
How we work
- Users first: We optimize for user experience, even when it won’t scale or lead to maximum short-term profits.
- Own our goals: We set and own ambitious goals where the path to success is unclear. We are creative, tenacious, and resourceful about finding a way to win. We maintain a constant pulse on goal attainment, especially when we fall behind.
- Communicate clearly: We over-communicate and prioritize clarity, simplicity, and directness. We write things down and publicize them to improve our own thinking and to ensure critical information can be retrieved by anyone, at any time. ‣
- Insanely productive; We produce outlier output by working hard, moving quickly, and by making it a priority to do a small number of important things well. ‣
- Joyful warriors: Working at a fast-growing startup can be challenging and messy. We keep a positive attitude and find joy in problem solving. We prioritize taking care of ourselves in order to bring our best each day.
