Specialists who want to own the outcome

We are a small, senior, distributed team. That means high autonomy, direct client contact, and no layer of account management between you and the work.

What we offer

The practical details

Stated up front, because you should not have to reach the offer stage to learn them.

  • Fully remote, with genuine time-zone flexibility
  • Four-day fortnight: every second Friday off
  • Annual learning budget and conference allowance
  • Home-office setup stipend and hardware of your choice
  • Paid contribution time for open-source work
  • Transparent salary bands, reviewed twice a year
How we operate

The culture, honestly stated

  • Evidence before opinion

    Every recommendation traces back to data, research or a test. Taste decides the last 10%, never the first 90%.

  • Own the outcome

    We measure ourselves on what the work produced, not on what we delivered. Those are different sentences.

  • Say the difficult thing

    If half your plan will not work, you hear it in week one — not in the retrospective.

  • Build to be handed over

    Documentation, source files and training are part of the deliverable. Dependency is not a business model.
