Summary

We hire engineers who can contribute positively to our discussion on how to improve our process. We want candidates who will make changes to how we work, not just fit into our current culture. Our hiring process focuses on understanding a candidate's growth mindset, ability to learn from mistakes, and willingness to take ownership of their actions. We evaluate candidates based on the context of their role, their job requirements, and the impact of their actions. We look for self-awareness, a comprehensive list of past experiences, and a willingness to improve. Our goal is to hire people who will make positive contributions to our team, not just fill a technical requirement.
