Five rules we run by.
Read these before you apply. If any of them sound wrong, the rest of the page will not save us.
Cost discipline is non-negotiable.
Every feature has unit economics modeled before it ships. We self-host LLMs and run our own SIP because the math worked out, not because we wanted bragging rights. If a feature is going to cost us more than the customer pays for it, we do not ship it.
Customers come second to the inbox.
Sounds wrong, reads correctly. If the unified inbox is not the best on the market, none of the rest matters. Every decision flows back to that one screen.
Founder voice on every surface.
Marketing reads like the founder wrote it. Help docs read like a senior engineer wrote them. We do not have a brand voice template. We have taste.
Ship every day.
Production deploys every weekday, sometimes hourly. We trust each other to ship small things directly and big things behind a flag.
Async by default, synchronous when it matters.
We are remote-first. Most decisions happen in writing in Linear and Notion. We pick up the phone when a customer is on fire, when we are arguing about a path, or when one of us is stuck.
We try to make the boring parts feel respected.
Top-of-market comp

Work from anywhere. Come to Houston twice a year on us. We rent a place, you stay in it.
Hardware on us
A high-end GPU workstation if you need one, MacBook Pro of your choice, ultrawide monitor, mechanical keyboard. We are picky about gear because the work demands it.

Unlimited PTO with a 3-week annual minimum. If you do not take 3 weeks, we make you take them in December.
