FAQ

Clear answers to the questions we hear most often.

We review all applications within 5–7 business days. If you're selected for the next round, you'll receive a scheduling link from our recruiting team. Either way, you'll hear from us — we don't leave candidates in the dark.
Our process typically has three stages: (1) a 30-minute recruiter screen, (2) a 60-minute panel with your future team, and (3) a short case study presentation. We don't believe in marathon interview loops — we respect your time.
Yes — if you're genuinely interested in more than one role, apply to both. Our recruiting team communicates internally and will route you to the best fit, or in some cases consider you for both simultaneously.
We're a remote-first company with an HQ in Austin, TX. Most roles are fully remote. Some senior leadership positions prefer candidates within a reasonable distance from Austin. The job posting will always specify clearly.
We do our best to offer meaningful feedback to candidates who reach the interview stage. We believe in treating people the way we'd want to be treated — including when the answer is no.
