Requirements
Who are we looking for
- You are not afraid to take initiative, experiment, implement successively better and better versions of our product, and sometimes throw away what doesn't work.
- It's important for us that your approach to learning and growth doesn't differ from ours - we believe that if we don't get better, we get worse.
- We rely on you to be communicative, open to share feedback and receive it. We offer the same to you - as equal partners.
