• Remote First: We champion a remote environment with a preference for asynchronous communication and a high degree of autonomy.
• AI First: We are committed to using AI to accelerate our mission; AI is not just a tool, it’s a fundamental part of how we operate, innovate, and scale.
• Apolitical: We do not take a position on political or social topics, unless it relates to our Mission.
• Live by Our Values: We role model our values 100% of the time.
• Expect High Performance: We set a high standard and we’re not satisfied with being average.
