Our manifesto

We can have results, or excuses - not both

Culture manifesto

Description

Clarity Over Cleverness: We value straightforward communication. We're direct and to the point, avoiding jargon and unnecessary complexity.

Value Everyone's Time: We keep meetings focused and efficient, with clear agendas and thorough preparation, and prefer quick communication for internal matters.

Fact-Based Decisions:
We make decisions based on data and evidence, not opinions or gut feelings. We confront challenges directly and honestly.

Respectful Candor: We communicate directly and respectfully. We value active listening and allow others to finish their thoughts before contributing our perspective.

Engineering manifesto

Description

Measure twice, cut once: Invest time in research before making technical decisions. Choosing the right technologies is critical; don't simply default to what's familiar. Prioritize community-maintained solutions over writing excessive custom code.

Embrace Open Source: Evaluate new open-source projects on their merits, not just popularity. Contribute to the projects you use, engage with the maintainers, and always read the source code.

Minimize Complexity: Collaborate across the company to reduce engineering complexity. Clearly communicate the long-term costs of complexity and align product development with available technologies.

Write simple code:We write code that is easy to read, understand and maintain, it should do one thing and include comprehensive automated tests. This allows us to build robust systems and make changes confidently.
