culture manifesto


We are not here to "just build another company". We are here to build a team of elite operators, builders, thinkers, and owners who operate on a foundation of mutual investment. We pour our resources into your growth; you pour your talent into our mission.
Through this shared commitment, we lift each other up to take on some of the most complex challenges in AI, infrastructure, and security with clarity, urgency, and conviction.

These aren't values for a slide deck. They are operating principles, and they are the basis for how we hire, build, lead, promote, and part ways.

what we look for

We are not for everyone - and that's intentional.

Every teammate, in every function, helps move the mission. If you want to coast, this isn't your place. If you want to build something great - and make yourself great in the process - this is your team.

we are for those who:

demand more from themselves than ayone else could.

invest in others' growth as much as their own.

Stay relentlessly curious, humble, and hungry.

challenge ideas, not individuals - then commit completely to hard decisions

move with urgency, but never recklessly.

value execution more than ego

build with focus and opinion, not distraction or imitation.

take accountability for every outcome - good or bad.

treat security as a shared responsibility

our culture rewards:

impact, not intentions.

ownership, not excuses.

moveresults, not bureaucracy.

mentorship, not ego.

core beliefs

excellence isn't limited to one role

Every person, every project, every decision must elevate the company. We are a meritocracy where results earn recognition, not position.

develop people first

We invest deeply in our people's growth, providing mentorship and opportunities before expecting excellence.

extreme ownership

We own our outcomes, our decisions, and our impact on the mission.

relentless ambition & integrity

We pursue excellence in everything we do, never settling for adequate.

unified security

We protect what we build together, treating security as everyone's responsibility.

principled speed

We move fast with purpose, balancing urgency with accountability.

operational principles

we turn beliefs into results

Develop Relentlessly. Expect Excellence.

We pour ourselves into developing our teammates, creating clear paths to success before demanding results. Everyone gets coached up before they get coached out. We invest in your growth and provide the tools to succeed - but ultimately, you must deliver.

How we practice this:

Pair new hires with mentors who exemplify our standards

Give specific, actionable feedback before performance becomes an issue.

Document growth paths clearly - no surprise exits

No Passengers. Raise the Bar.

Every person, every project, every decision must elevate the company. We are a meritocracy where results earn recognition, not position. Adequacy is insufficient-- everyone rows, everyone raises the bar.

How we practice this:

Give direct feedback when standards slip

Celebrate those who push boundaries, not those who play it safe

Ask "How does this raise the bar?" before every hire and decision

Build. Break. Better.

We release and refine with urgency, knowing that iteration beats perfection. Breaking things is part of the process; getting better is the mandate. Velocity matters, but progress demands reflection.

How we practice this:

Ship early and often, iterate based on real feedback

Hold blameless post-mortems focused on learning, not finger-pointing

Set aggressive timelines but build on reflection checkpoints

Drive Impact with Decisive Ownership.

We prioritize smart, decisive action backed by full accountability. We balance speed with responsibility; owning both successes and failures. Initiative is rewarded - indecision is not.

How we practice this:

Make reversible decisions quickly, irreversible ones carefully

Volunteer for hard problems without being asked

Own failures and share lessons learned

Diasgree, Decide, and Deliver.

We debate passionately but align once decided, executing without drama. Ideas do battle, not individuals, and ego never trumps mission. We disagree and deliver as teammates.

How we practice this:

Use "I disagree and commit" to signal aligned execution

Time-box debates and designate clear decision makers

Champion decisions, even ones you argued against

Trust is Earned Through Delivery.

Trust isn't given-- it's earned every time we deliver. We invest in your ability to succeed before demanding results. Performance is our baseline for credibility, and consistency builds confidence.

How we practice this:

Update stakeholders proactively, especially when things go wrong

Track and share metrics that matter, not vanity numbers.

Follow through on commitments or renegotiate explicitly

Security is a Team Sport.

Security isn't a department - it's a mindset and shared responsibility. We treat customer trust as sacred and non-negotiable. No blind spots, no handoffs-- we protect what we build together.

How we practice this:

Include security considerations in every design discussion

Escalate security concerns immediately, without fear

Share security knowledge openly across teams

We Lead.
We Don't Follow.

We shape the market rather than chase competitors, investing in what makes us unique. Our differentiated view is our strength. Clarity of vision acts as our force multiplier, letting us build with speed and confidence.

How we practice this:

Spend 10x more time with customers than analyzing competitors

Say "no" to feature parity requests that don't fit our vision

Build opinionated products that reflect our unique perspective

Never Settle.
Never Solo.

We maintain beginner's mindset even as experts, knowing complacency kills companies. Every win is shared, every challenge faced together. We compete externally, not internally - your success lifts us all.

How we practice this:

Seek feedback from juniors and peers, not just seniors

Share wins publicly, discuss failures privately but openly

Jump in to help teammates without being asked
