How we work?
Scrumban - We plan Epic sized projects with 3-4 people, getting product specs, Figma designs.
Outcome of planning are design documents, architectural decisions by engineering team and estimations.
We try to deliver the Epics within 2-3 weeks.
Measuring in sprint points. 1 point is ~2hr.
We have daily meetings, no grooming, no retrospectives, no demos.

DevEx/Automation
Fully automated local environment, automated CI/CD pipelines, daily production deployments.

Engineering Culture (Values)
Work Hard & Act Mature - Baseline minimum 40/h a week. The hours are not definitive of your performance, but of your discipline and dedication. This doesn't mean you have to overtime everyday and push 60-80/h a week. It means every individual is mature enough to understand when to apply pressure to their team and project and when to keep it paced or take a rest.

Get Sh*t Done - Complementary to the first value, we expect everyone to deliver what they took responsibility over - end to end, meaning, it's only considered done when it's usable by all customers on production.

Ship It - Don't overthink what you are building today, don't over-engineer the solution or prepare for years in advance. Don't build/refactor what wasn't requested/approved. We will have a chance to improve anything if necessary by flagging a problem first.

Zero Bullsh*t & Brutal Honesty - We didn't gather to play games or mess around, we're a group of professionals with friendly relationships who want to build cool stuff. We're not in a high school, so we should tell if someone is messing around and not consider it a "snitching" and we must hold each other accountable by communicating and sharing honest feedback.

Be Empowered - You are the product. Everything online is built by you. You are trusted and expected to make moderate product and design decisions in the face of ambiguity. You become the feature expert during development and very likely know the best solution. Even if we have to redo 20% of these decisions ... we still come out wildly ahead.

Team Cohesion & Culture - Help each other. Ask questions. Answer questions. Review PRs. Propose help. Check on your team mates. Help them test their solution. Help Leads with epics. Help people who are off/sick to finish their tasks. Give feedback if someone is falling behind. This will dramatically improve your sense of belonging, help you feel safer and more appreciated and most importantly - you will build bonds with people you spend so much time with.

Trust for Transparency - You all work remotely and have the luxury of choosing your working hours (apart from intersection hours) unlike office people. Provide the needed transparency on what you do during the standup, when you are stuck - ask for help instead of trying not to look bad ("Student fallacy") and waste time.
What we want to know as a bottom line is - when you are going to finish what you've started and commit to that date it if possible or adjust the estimations and expectations often and vocally.

Build Value to Make Money - We truly want to build something that people want to use, that will help them overcome the abysmal state of recruitment in the world both for B2B and B2C.
Having said that, we also want to make money as a company. If you have skin in the game, you should treat the product as your own, your action or inaction directly impact its success.

Looking forward to meet great candidates!
