TAKING CARE OF OUR HERD

What’s in it for you?

Growth opportunities

Through work with bleeding-edge technologies, a personal budget for education, and sharing our own knowledge.

Respect

We value your work. Competitive pay, possibilities for promotions, and the ability to influence the final products are proof of that.

Receptiveness

Open door policy and arguments over hierarchy. We always listen to you, and we are always true to our word. We expect the same from you.

Flexibility

Choose your preferred type of employment, when and where you work from, and a laptop and OS you feel most comfortable with.

Extras

Separate budgets for sports, education, and equipment are at your disposal.

Comfort

New offices, a parking space, beanbags, a hammock, PlayStation (and NES!), snacks, and smoothies. Awesome coffee.

The hiring process

What can you expect?

01 Initial interview

We will first review your application, and if you meet the requirements, we will invite you to a 30-minute video meeting or a cup of coffee at our headquarters in Ljubljana.

02 Task

We will often ask you to complete a task to show the level of your skills. Typically, the task is designed to take a few hours to complete, with a submission deadline of 7 days (one week). We will always provide you with feedback on your work.

03 Technical interview

Based on the number of applications received, these two steps can be interchanged: the technical interview can come first, followed by the task, or the other way around. Alternatively, we might just skip the task and go straight for the interview.

04 An offer

If everything goes well, we will invite you to one final talk where we align our expectations and discuss the beginning of your journey with us.
