Unicorn Startup with a Top Tier Exec Team
- A bright engineering team.
- An empathetic culture and good compensation and benefits.
- First-time founder energy surrounded by industry veterans.
- Varied work surfaces give a ton of different work experiences depending on the team.

Continue listening to your people and making changes. The people are the mission, and if you stick with them, they'll deliver.
