Build the systems everything else depends on

We put small teams of experienced engineers onto high-consequence problems: core transaction systems, legacy cutovers, and real-time inference infrastructure. If that is the work you want, we want to hear from you.

How We Work

What you can expect

01Staff-Caliber Bar

We hire experienced engineers who have owned systems in production. Depth over headcount, always.

02Distributed by Design

We collaborate across time zones with async RFCs, recorded design reviews, and deep-work-first calendars.

03Production Ownership

You architect it, you ship it, you run it. Every engineer carries their work through to verified runbooks.

04Compounding Craft

Paired architecture sessions, internal tech talks, and a budget for the tools and learning that sharpen you.

Hiring Protocol

How we hire

Four focused steps, no drawn-out gauntlets. We evaluate the way we work: on real systems, in real conversations.

01

Introduction

Share your background and the systems you are proudest of. A short written intro beats a polished resume.

02

Technical Deep Dive

A conversation with a Principal Engineer about a real system you built: its decisions, trade-offs and failures.

03

Working Session

A collaborative architecture exercise with the team you would join. No puzzles, no whiteboard trivia.

04

Offer & Onboarding

A clear decision within days, then a structured first-sprint onboarding with a dedicated pairing partner.

No open listing that fits? Introduce yourself anyway

Roles open as new engagements are commissioned. Tell us about the hardest system you have shipped and we will keep you on the radar for the next engagement.
