Culture

Who we are: Our founding team is composed of a Serial Gen AI Inventor and a Serial Entrepreneur. We work hard, have a curious mind-set, and believe in a low-ego high output approach.

We love to move fast on all ‘two-way door’ decisions. A good decision made today is better than a ‘perfect’ decision in 1 week.

We believe in the importance of being an ‘everyday athlete’ so you can bring your best mind to work. We promote getting great sleep, motion/movement in daily, along with whatever other type of restorative activity gets you to optimal mental performance. It makes for a happier and more productive team.

More tactically, we leave the office in time to have dinner at home with our families nearly every night.

What We Ask Of You

Please ask yourself if you are ready for a challenge before applying. Even in optimal conditions, Start-Ups are hard, and are always a lot of work. What you do week to week will change. If this feels exciting, not concerning, that’s a good sign.

They also require a lot of autonomy. We will be in person, and we have relevant experience, but we do not have all the answers. Like every start-up, we continue to discover as we build. If this is exciting, please reach out.
