What We're Looking For

Hungry Learners Over Experienced Titles

AI is rewriting software. We value learning velocity over years of experience. If you're obsessed with mastering new tools, pushing boundaries, and documenting what you learn, you'll thrive here regardless of your resume.

AI-Native Mindset

You already use Claude, Cursor, or other AI coding tools actively—not just for chat, but to build real things. You understand how to direct AI effectively and can articulate what worked and what didn't in your prompts.

Builders Who Ship

You prefer shipping code, creating sales materials, or closing deals over endless planning. You measure yourself by outcomes and iterate based on real customer feedback. Demos speak louder than slide decks.

Shoshin: Beginner's Mind

The AI landscape changes weekly. You're excited by this, not intimidated. You question assumptions, stay curious, and adapt quickly. Traditional approaches don't constrain your thinking about what's possible.

Ownership Without Title

You think like an owner because you are one. Problems become opportunities. Obstacles get solved, not escalated. You take initiative, create scope, and make decisions with incomplete information.

Enterprise Context (or Hunger to Learn It)

You understand or are excited to deeply learn enterprise systems, compliance requirements, and Fortune 500 operations. You see the challenge of transforming established organizations as an opportunity, not a constraint.
