No time wasted

We keep meetings to a minimum- but when we need to align, we hop on a quick call or chat. 
t’s completely normal to receive a Teams call (even our customers and accountant aren’t spared) to quickly sort things out. In deep focus mode? Just turn it off. Btw. we dont even have a daily!

Natural collaboration

Slack, video calls, in-person chats – we work together to find the best solution to any problem. Don’t be surprised if someone comes around the corner looking for a “rubber duck.” It’s all about teamwork, expression, and progress!

Regular breaks

We always encourage you to take time for a coffee, a walk, or just to rest.

Fast decisions

We like to move quickly. Impatience with action, patience with results. 
On Friday, we decided we needed more personal photos for our website. On Monday, a professional photographer was here.

When a new feature is released or a milestone is reached, team members have a week to set up a meeting and present their results. Join in if you’d like!

What makes this a great place to work

We take care of our team. Here’s how:

Pick your gear, no
compromises

MacBook Pro? Air? A Windows device? Whatever works best for you — we’ve got you covered! No questions asked. Well, maybe some: American keyboard layout? Specific peripherals in mind (like a Razer mouse)? Just let us know.

Work with Flexibility and a view

On Mondays and Fridays, you can work from anywhere. From Tuesday to Thursday, we’d love to have you in the office to collaborate and connect. We know, life happens — that’s no problem. But here, your first coffee of the day comes with a stunning view of the Elbphilharmonie.

Be yourself, no Dress-Code
required

Come as you are! Dress formal or casual — mix it up however you like. Show your tattoos, rock your style, and just be yourself.

Dog-friendly office

Don’t leave your dogs at home — bring them to work instead! Pets are great for breaking the ice, and they make meetings a lot more fun.

Foodies welcome

We love food. Like, a lot. Our office building has an amazing restaurant (“tabledot”), and we regularly go out for dinner — on the company, of course. Found a great spot? Add it to our internal list!

Experienced minds, strong
team

We set high standards for ourselves and our team. If you want to work alongside experienced colleagues and value knowledge sharing — even across departments — you‘ll feel right at home here.

Our recruiting process

Applying isn‘t about proving yourself – it‘s about finding out if we‘re a great fit for each other. Let‘s have a conversation and see if we click!

Vibe check

We start with an informal chat. No interrogation, no stress — just a conversation about what drives you, what you’re looking for, and how we work. Ask us anything!

02

Share your experience

We’d love to hear about your past projects, challenges you’ve tackled, and what excites you professionally. No need for a polished script — just tell us what makes you tick.

03

On-site sneak peak

See how we work in action! Join us for a day, experience pair programming, and get a feel for the team, our processes, and our culture. It’s the best way to see if this works for you.

04

Decision time

We move fast. From first contact to a decision, we can wrap things up in just one week. Can you keep up?
