You have a keen eye for how things should work and you use data to prove (or disprove) your assertions. You’re vigilant about keeping a high bar of quality but you’re not afraid to try something new. You are excited to take on new challenges and be part of something small that is growing into something big.

Our remote-first approach
We're a remote-first company that encourages our employees to work from where they're most productive. For most, this means working from the comfort of their home, but for those who prefer to work from our office, we're located in downtown Toronto at Bay and Bloor, with convenient access to both subway lines. To foster collaboration, we implemented a number of ways to stay connected, including quick weekly company-wide check-ins, monthly game nights, and ad hoc knowledge-sharing sessions.
