Since our founding in 2018, the team has grown to more than 1,000 people globally-most of that growth has occurred during the COVID-19 pandemic.

This growth is supported by investors whose portfolios include Facebook, Google, Jet.com, StitchFix, and Lululemon. We do our best work when we’re surrounded by people who are insatiably curious, agile, and who thrive in collaborative, check-your-ego-at-the door working environments. Sound like you? We’d love to chat.
