We’re a small team spread across the globe.

Hello, 👋 nice to meet you! We’re Anne Marie, Sammy, Felix, Dan and Josep.

Over the last 4 years we’ve worked together across 4 different continents. Sammy has been in Greece, Anne Marie in Texas and Felix in Australia.

Communication is key. We are passionate about clear communication. We are a remote company and so a lot of our communication is through asynchronous messages.

We’re kind to each other. We look up to each other, and support each other. We reach for responsibility and hold ourselves accountable. We show up for the work and for each other.

We are building an inclusive, supportive team. 

We strongly encourage candidates of all different backgrounds and identities to apply
