/ Careers

We don't run a perpetual job board. When we hire, we hire senior, and we hire well.

Five disciplines. Async-default. Sustainable pace. Real ownership over the work and the outcomes.

Where we hire

Five disciplines. Senior-only across all of them.

Engineering

Full-stack TypeScript engineers shipping marketing sites, e-commerce, and internal tools for clients. React, Next.js, Postgres, the boring parts.

Performance Marketing

Senior media buyers for Meta, Google, TikTok, and YouTube. You can read a Looker dashboard, structure an account, and write a creative brief.

Design

Brand and product designers comfortable in Figma, comfortable shipping to production, and unbothered by tight constraints.

Copy & Creative

Copywriters and short-form video strategists. You write for operators, not for the search engine.

Growth Strategy

Generalists who can audit a P&L, design a 90-day plan, and run the meeting. Usually with an operating background, not pure-agency.

How we hire

Four steps, four weeks, no leetcode.

  1. 01

    Send work, not a résumé.

    A link to a site you shipped, an account you ran, a deck you wrote, anything that shows the work. Skip the cover letter.

  2. 02

    We reply quickly.

    If there's fit, you'll hear back inside a week. If there isn't, you'll hear that too, we don't ghost.

  3. 03

    One paid pilot.

    Most hires start with a small paid project, a scoped piece of real client work over two to four weeks. We pay market rate, you keep the work either way.

  4. 04

    Then a real offer.

    If the pilot works for both sides, we make an offer that reflects the role and the seniority. We don't “leveling-interview”, your work tells us where you land.

The bar

What we look for beyond the craft.

Operating taste.

You can tell the difference between work that ships and work that wins awards. You optimize for the former.

Write to think.

Async-first means decisions live in writing. If you can't put a recommendation in a paragraph, you can't make it stick.

Owner mindset.

Nothing “isn't your job.” If a number is wrong, you're the one who notices and fixes it.

Senior, not heroic.

You move fast because you've seen this before, not because you're willing to grind weekends. Sustainable pace, every quarter.

The logistics

Remote-first, async-default, US hours overlap required.

We're fully remote. Most of the team works between Eastern and Pacific US time zones; new hires should be reachable for at least three overlapping hours with the US East coast on weekdays.

We pay market rate for the role and seniority, in your local currency. Employees inside the US are W-2; everyone else is on a contractor agreement structured for sustainable, long-term engagement.

No benefits performance theater, health stipend, equipment budget, paid time off you're actually expected to take, and a clear written promotion track inside the discipline.

/ Don't see your discipline?

Send the work anyway. We keep good people in mind.

Email a few links, work you shipped, accounts you ran, writing you published, and a paragraph on the kind of role you want. We reply.
