Quick Reference

Remote-first, not remote-tolerant. We're distributed by design.

4-day week. Monday to Thursday. Fridays off. A commitment, not a perk.

Equal pay for equal work. Same role, same pay, regardless of location.

Values first. We hire for values fit, then skills.

Trust by default. We trust you to manage your time, your work, and your judgment.

Honesty always. No spin, no hiding. If it's broken, we say so.

The handbook will change as we learn and grow. If something's unclear, ask. If something's wrong, tell us. If something's missing, we'll add it.
