About You
You work at a big company, and you’re a rock star there. You like the comfort and stability it provides, but frequently find yourself bored and/or frustrated. You cringe thinking about the grueling hours and frenzied pace of the startup life…
- You’re tired of long development cycles and death marches.
- Behemoth teams and lots of project churn bum you out.
- Some of your best ideas never see the light of day in a political and bureaucratic environment.
- You’re bored having used the same language and technology for the last 5 years.
- You’re too busy to disseminate all the knowledge you’ve gained from a conference or training to the rest of the team.
- You’re discouraged by the amount of time it takes to effect real change on your team.
- Your books are all out of date, and you’re still waitin! g for corporate IT to patch your machine.
- You wish you could just work from home once in awhile.
- Your company exists to serve and satisfy only its shareholders.
- You’ve never met, let alone worked with the CEO.
You’ve thought about jumping ship for a startup, but…
- Equity’s not that appealing if the company never gets off the ground.
- VC dollars come at the cost of self-direction.
- Generating demand for a product is exhausting, and you’d rather focus on building quality applications that meet a real need.
- Users abandon consumer applications at a whim, and you want people to actually use what you’ve built.
- Ferreting out an uncharted domain is like sailing without a compass.
- Working long, unpredictable hours sounds like a nightmare. You have responsibilities, and a life, for crying out l! oud.
- The market drives you to deliver something ! before you really feel ready.
- Razor scooters and beer pong aren’t exactly your idea of fun anymore.
About Us
We are big company comfort in a small company atmosphere. Conversely, we’re startup excitement without all the baggage.
- We have short feedback loops and release when it feels right.
- We have 2-3 person teams and maintain perpetual forward velocity.
- We have a flat organization where every employee’s input is highly-valued.

- Our market’s always moving, but slowly enough that you have time to develop an idea throug! h to the end.
- We build connections through conversation &! ndash; whether it’s discussing a new business idea, or a book you’ve been reading. We also keep the arcade machine fired up just in case, and have been known to WhirlyBall.
