The Role

What We Value
High Agency: We own the problem and don’t think in silos. “Not my job” is not an acceptable excuse if something is not working. Figure out what’s wrong and take initiative to solve the problem. Speak up. Company success is everyone’s job.
Deliver Customer Value: Company success follows customer success (not the other way around). Everything we do starts and ends with delivering value to our customers.
Continuous Improvement: Making small improvements consistently is preferred to aiming for big leaps. We embrace that we may not get it right the first time, so we learn by doing, making mistakes, and course correcting constantly. 1% better every day is how we accomplish great things over time.
Go Find Out: We seek a deeper understanding beyond the surface, and get our hands dirty with ground truth data (no matter the seniority). We know anecdotes can be more powerful than aggregate stats because they can reveal hidden truths. Always be learning.
Startup DNA: We operate at a higher clock speed and believe small committed teams can make the impossible possible. We embrace that great results only come with great effort, and we lift each other to achieve more than we could achieve alone.
