Operating Principles

Our decisions are led by a set of Operating Principles (OP)

Bias to action

We move fast and take initiative rather than waiting to be asked.

Own the outcome

We take responsibility for the result, not just the task.

Conviction, held loosely

We fight for what we believe, then listen hard enough to change our minds.

Endless curiosity

We ask "why" behind everything we build.
